Ashridge International Research conference

"The Sustainability Challenge: Organisational Change and Transformational Vision"

Dear Colleague

This is to remind you that the Early Bird fee period for the Ashridge International Research conference "The Sustainability Challenge: Organisational Change and Transformational Vision" will end on May 15^th, the end of this week. So you still have time to book at the reduced fee.

The conference will feature scholars and practitioners from around the world sharing their experiences and research findings in relation to the core question of the conference: 'What are we learning about how organisational change for sustainability happens from those organisations where it is already happening?'

The conference will take place June 10-12 2011 at Ashridge Business School, Berkhamsted (near London), UK, with its 18^th Century Mansion House, spectacular park and surroundings and executive accommodation.

For conference bookings go to www.ashridge.org.uk/airc2 or contact Eileen Mullins on eileen.mullins@ashridge.org.uk

All information, Outline Conference programme with three Special Sessions with Experts and Keynote Speakers, Registration Form with Early Bird fee, Link to Special Issues of three peer reviewed journals, can be found at www.ashridge.org.uk/airc2, or below.
