This workshop aims to support the socialization of doctoral students and enhance their knowledge about the job market. The first half of the workshop provides tips and best practices from professors who have served on multiple hiring committees. The second half features reflections and advice from professors who have recently navigated the job market.

The academic year is rapidly coming to an end and so are the STR online events. But there is still time for you to join some of these exciting events. 

Two of the May events included the PhD Networkshops organized by Philipp Meyer-Doyle (INSEAD) and Florence Honore (U Wisconsin-Madison) where senior panelists gave feedback to late-stage STR PhD students and post-docs as they are preparing for the job market. A huge thank you to the panelists for your time and advice in supporting these young scholars for their future careers in the field of Strategic Management: Michael Bikard, Linus Dahlander, Giada Di Stefano, Kenneth Huang, Tobias Kretschmer, Bala Vissa, Heli Wang, Pavel Zhelyakov, Donald Bergh, Felipe Csaszar, J.P. Eggers, Aline Gatignon, Jiao Luo, and Atul Nerkar. 

If you missed the other May events organized by STR you will find them as per usual on the STR Youtube channel.

June starts with another STR Impact and Relevance event on June 4th at 11AM ET on the topic of “publishing phenomenon-based research in strategic management”. The event is hosted and organized by Koen Heimericks (U Warwick) and Fabrice Lumineau (U Hong Kong) and will feature Aseem Kaul, Greg Fisher, Jonathan Doh, and Sue Cohen.

We host a second STR Impact and Relevance event on June 27th at 11AM ET on the topic of how STR scholars can collect primary impactful data. The event is hosted and organized by Florence Honore (U Wisconsin-Madison) and will feature Michael Leiblein,
Elena Novelli, Tim Ott, Henry Sauermann, and Margarethe Wieserma.

On June 28th, the Membership Engagement Committee of STR is organizing an online student-only conference open to any STR division PhD student who submits a full paper by the registration deadline. There is no review process aside from a quick check that the paper is an STR research paper suitable for discussants. By submitting a paper, you agree to attend the conference and serve as a discussant for two other student papers. You will be matched into a research topic track to ensure the highest quality feedback. The deadline for signing up is June 7th.

You will find more information about these events including how to sign up on the STR homepage: https://str.aom.org/home

Dear DEI members,

Have you been thinking about your commitment to DEI? Are you interested in getting involved in the DEI Division in a low-key, but valuable way? Our incredible, dedicated AOM Connect Manager, Sanjeewa Perera from the University of South Australia, is stepping down, and we are looking for a new Manager for our AOM Connect community.

AOM Connect, as you probably know, is how information on events and resources are shared amongst our membership, and it takes a bit of time and tending to ensure we communicate effectively with our members across the globe.  The full position description is available by clicking here. This is a non-elected position and selection is based on interest, by the DEI Executive team.

Please read the attached description, and if you have interest, please apply by June 10, 2024, by simply uploading a CV and telling us briefly why you are interested and why you might be a good fit for the role.  You need not be a tech-y! forms.gle/23LSwdmqexoxEo7t9

I hope you will consider joining our leadership team in this way.  If you have any questions about the role, Sanjee is happy to field them - sanjee.perera@unisa.edu.au.
