SAP Doctoral and Early Career Program on August 04, 2023 at AOM Boston 2023
Call for Applications
Organizers: Ashley Hockensmith, Daniel Gäckle, Jennifer Sloan, & Lorenzo Skade
We are happy to announce that Strategizing Activities and Practices Interest Group (SAP IG) invites scholars to the upcoming SAP Doctoral and Early Career Program (ECP). Get ready for a compelling one-day event tailored to guide doctoral and early career scholars through the “academic jungle” of the 83rd Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
The ECP will be held on Friday, August 04, 2023, and it will span a full day of panels, workshops, roundtables, and networking opportunities. The day will bring together doctoral students and junior faculty, who are interested in SAP-related topics, methods, and conversations.
The ECP goes above and beyond the traditional early-career consortiums, as it connects the workshops within broader SAP events and fosters the development of a supportive community of scholars.

Available Financial Support: The SAP IG can provide financial support to individuals experiencing circumstances of financial hardship and/or coming from under-represented groups within the AOM SAP community, including ECP scholars. For a limited number of eligible individuals, conference registration fees can be covered through the AOM conference waiver or SAP IG scholarship program.
