Practice Theme Committee (PTC)
Professional Development Workshops
Annual Meetings Academy of Management, August 7-11, 2009
(August 7-8 for PDW presentations) Chicago, Illinois
January 15th Deadline
Call for Proposals
The Practice Theme Committee is of strategic importance to the Academy of
Management and spans across all Divisions and Interest Groups of the
Academy. It aims to:
• Develop greater awareness of what practice means and how it can
usefully inform our scholarship in terms of both research and teaching.
• Identify and profile exemplary initiatives that bridge the gap
between theory and practice and engage practitioners and academics in the
co-creation of knowledge.
• Create a platform for ongoing engagement with practitioners so that
the knowledge we discover is relevant and has impact.
This year’s theme “Green Management Matters” encourages us to
self-reflectively examine the assumptions behind green management that
inform our practices in research and teaching. We invite you to take the
challenge that a practice perspective offers to engage with:
1. What are “Green Practices,” why do they matter in organizations, and
how do they impact scholarship and society?
2. How do we enhance “Eco Literacy and Learning” with “Green
Curricula,” “Environmental Leaders and Managers,” “Employee Engagement,”
and “Green Politics”?
3. How do we bridge theory and practice to encourage “Environmental
Design” and “Environmental Strategies” for “Product Stewardship” and
“Sustainable Development”?
4. How do “Green Practices” encourage “Stakeholder Engagement,” build
“Environmental Partnerships,” shape “Environmental Ethics,” and foster
“Global Alliances”?
5. How can we teach, research, and implement “Green Management Scenario
Planning” and “Environmental Policy” for effective “Crisis Management” and
"Risk Management”?
6. How can we better understand the role of phronesis in addressing
‘mal-practice’ and ‘mis-management’ in advancing greater corporate social
responsibility?
We encourage exciting, innovative, and interdisciplinary workshops involving
both researchers and practitioners and elucidating the link between green
management and practice. Please note that the “Rule of Three” applies for
the 2009 PDW program.
If you would like to discuss your ideas prior to submitting, please contact
Elena Antonacopoulou (
E.Antonacopoulou@liverpool.ac.uk), PTC Chair or
Kuo Frank Yu (
