*sorry for cross-postings*
Dear all,
Welcome to the Fall Edition of the SAP newsletter! Looking back, it feels as if the AoM meeting in Anaheim was just a moment ago. In this newsletter, you will find many traces of this conference, including reflections on our very first SAP Doctoral & Early Career Program, on Jean Bartunek's keynote and many pictures from our scholarly and social activities.
Looking ahead, we focus our attention on a key turning point in the SAP history at the Academy: moving from the status of an Interest Group to a Division. We hope you support us in applying for Division status by staying an active member of our IG, submitting your paper & symposium proposals for the Atlanta meeting and completing the membership survey. You can find more details on the road ahead on p.2 of this newsletter.
Preparing for the future, this newsletter also provides you with a collection of announcements relevant for our SAP community: the call for papers and symposium for the AoM meeting in Atlanta, three tracks at EGOS focusing on various themes in SAP research and a track at SMS and EURAM. You might also be interested in learning about the Call for Papers for two special issues, the companion website for the book "Practicing Strategy" and the new Standing Working Group on Process Research at EGOS.
Lastly, the newsletter also features emerging scholars in the SAP community and a new line of research: historical approaches to strategy process and practice research.
So, get a coffee, sit back, and enjoy catching up on the Strategizing Activities and Practices Interest Group!
