Call for Caring Economics Action
Research Projects
for Professional
Development Workshops at the
Academy of Management (AOM) Annual
Meeting
Seeking
Projects that foster a socio-economic system
in
which genuine caring for people and nature is a top
priority.
June
2, 2011 Scholars and
practitioners are invited to submit projects (either
embryonic or in-process projects) that contribute to the
development of a Caring
Economy for discussion at two
Academy of Management (AOM) Professional
Development Workshops (PDWs) during the 2011 Academy of
Management Annual Meeting, San Antonio, Texas, USA,
August 12-16, 2011 entitled West
Meets East: Enlightening, Balancing,
Transcending.
The organizers are calling for
projects that foster "caring" and care-giving
including proposals about: organizational and human
resources strategies; leadership models and training;
green, triple bottom line and sustainability
initiatives; advancement of women, minorities, and
children in societies, organizations and families; and
human, cross-cultural relations. Projects may explore
activities guided by a caring orientation, fulfilling
human needs and offering a different approach to
business and government policy-making that is both
financially and socially profitable. Projects may
include new measures assessing national health,
socio-economic wealth, human resilience, and
organizational performance. Submit a one
page proposal for Action Research
Projects to Dr.
Kristine M. Kawamura [kristine...@yahoo.com
by June 30. The
