Topic: If you open a newspaper or magazine, it would not be uncommon to read about the latest research in the top journals of the field of medicine: the New England Journal of Medicine or the Lancet. But the odds of reading a similar story about the latest research from the top management journals are nearly non-existent (see table 1). The fact is that the major business practice journals have thus far largely ignored the research of the academy. This PDW will ask why this is so and explore how this situation can be changed.
Registration: As with last year, you can now register online for select PDW sessions that require separate enrollment. Please note that these select PDWs that require separate enrollment are only part of the 2008 PDW Program. The entire PDW program is available online. For a list of the PDW sessions and to register online, please visit <https://secure.aomonline.org/PDWReg>. You MUST be registered for the Annual Meeting first in order to sign up for these select workshops. ---------------Monica C. Worline-----------------------
