A standing committee of the OB Division

Program Development Committee

The Program Development Committee is one of three standing committees the Executive Committee maintains in support of the Division's strategic priorities, alongside the Making Connections Committee and the Global Committee. The team works closely with the Program Chair and Program Chair-Elect to build the OB Division's program for the AOM Annual Meeting.

Members coordinate and enter program information into AOM's Program Developer, provide input on enhancements that better meet the current and future needs of our members, and report on program development to the Executive Committee.
