The Technology and Innovation Management (TIM) Division invites
innovative proposals for pre-conference Professional Development Workshops
(PDWs) within the Academy of Management annual meeting, which will be held virtually from July
30–August 3, 2021. PDW sessions provide excellent opportunities
for exploring emerging research questions or methods, trying out new workshop
formats, and fostering conversations on important but understudied phenomena.
They can take a variety of formats––methods workshops, tutorials, debates,
roundtable discussions, town hall meetings, to name a few––and address ideas or
phenomena that might not (yet) fit in the regular program. PDW sessions
are also intended for professional development of the participants, so their
engagement is essential. We aim for a program of highly innovative, interactive
and diverse PDWs. Past TIM PDWs have delved into such topics as digital
transformation, ecosystems, emerging business models, external sources of
innovation, lean startups, platforms, patent research methods, and
technological change. The
Technology and Innovation Management Division is a vibrant community of
scholars stemming from a variety of fields and disciplines interested in
innovation, research and development, and the management of technology-based
organizations.
