    Posted 03-01-2007 13:21

    Dear GDO Members:

    The results of the voting on the proposed changes to the GDO domain and mission statement are in: 97% of voters favored the change. Thank you for the overwhelming support of these new statements, which reflect more accurately what the division does and is. Our new statements will be posted on the official <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placetype w:st="on">Academy</st1:placetype> of <st1:placename w:st="on">Management</st1:placename></st1:place> web-sites and GDO web-sites in the near future.

    Special thanks go to Jeanie Forray, Lotte Bailyn, and many other division members who worked on this change over the past two years.

    Best,

    Myrtle

    Dear GDO Colleagues:

     

                I was very pleased to see the message from Myrtle Bell regarding the voting on the new GDO domain and mission statement.  In addition to the thanks that Myrtle expressed to the folks who worked on the new statements, we in GDO owe a debt of gratitude to Myrtle for all of her hard work in making this change happen.  It is not an easy process at all to change a domain statement-believe it or not, there's a lot of bureaucracy within the Academy of Management!  Thanks for your work and your patience in moving the Division forward, Myrtle!  --  Gayle
