Diamonds in the Rough Consortium
Are you a doctoral student or junior faculty member studying issues related to cognition? If so, the
MOC division has just created a brand new consortium with you in mind! The Diamonds in the Rough
(DIR) consortium provides an excellent opportunity to hear about the paths that senior faculty have
taken in studying cognition, receive personalized feedback about managing your own research
stream, and build connections with other emerging as well as seasoned scholars studying cognition in
organizations.
You will be treated to stories about how leading scholars forged their own professional identities as
well as perspectives on how a variety of different methodologies can be brought to bear on the study
of cognition. With these talks to stimulate discussion, you will get plenty of personalized feedback --
from both a leading scholar and a couple of other participants -- about your own research portfolio
and the ways in which you might utilize additional methodologies to advance it. Furthermore, the
afternoon will begin and end with opportunities to meet many other cognition scholars. It will begin
with a shared lunch with our sister PDW, Cognition in the Rough, with keynote speaker Joe Porac. It
will culminate with the popular MOC social event, Think About It.
The event will run from 11:30 4:30 on Saturday.
Facilitators include:
Neal Ashkanasay (Univ. of Queensland)
Prithviraj (Raja) Chattopadhyay (Hong Kong Univ. of Science and Technology)
Theresa Cho (Seoul National Univ.)
Kevin Corley (Arizona State Univ.)
Hillary Anger-Elfenbein (Washington Univ.)
Mary Ann Glynn (Boston College)
George Huber (Univ. of Texas, Austin)
Mark Martinko (Florida State Univ.)
Mike Pfarrer (Univ. of Georgia)
Davide Ravasi (Bacconi Univ.)
Rhonda Reger (Univ. of Tennessee)
Kevin Rockman (George Mason Univ.)
Anita Woolley (Carnegie Mellon Univ.)

methodologies that you have either used, or plan to use. Please limit this to no more than 3 pages,
