To SIM Colleagues:
As colleagues gather for the 2008 edition of our Annual Meeting, I
wanted to call attention to our PDW Workshop weekend, as well as to two
important SIM panels on Monday morning. I’ve both inserted the list in
the message below and attached it. -- Barry Mitnick, 2008 SIM PDW Chair
SIM PDW Workshops
SIM is sponsoring 10 PDW workshops this weekend, and cosponsoring 8 more

to another division for a cosponsored panel – the recipient division is
in parentheses). You can find the listings of these panels in your
Academy program. There are links from the Academy online program to

SIM Panels on the Field
The Questions SIM Asks: Focusing on Fields, Monday, 9-10:20am, AM,
Orange County 1
The Questions SIM Asks: Continuing the Dialogue, Monday, 10:40am-12pm,
AM, Orange County 1
These panels look at some of the important areas of research within SIM
and asks whether the work we see within them has a character that makes
it distinctive to SIM, and whether the area takes the form of, or is
becoming. a coherent field of research. A developed field includes not
only common intellectual content, but an organized body of study such as
a discipline, a recognized community of researchers, and a formal
administrative setting or home. The first panel examines the contents,
logics, concepts, methods, patterns of study, and schools of thought or
arenas of academic production displayed by these streams of research.
The second panel features the speakers from the first panel, plus three
distinguished senior scholars in SIM, Archie Carroll, Edwin Epstein, and
Jerry Cavanagh. It moves the discussion from the questions SIM has asked
to those it may ask in the future. How should we frame or understand
what we study, whether or not it is a field?
The panels are chaired by Barry Mitnick; Ed Freeman is the discussant.
The presentations/areas covered will include: (*coauthor but not presenter)

Recently, Doug Schuler emailed the lists regarding the Keynote Speaker,
which is also part of the PDW weekend. Here is part of his email:
Professor Rakesh Khurana of the Harvard Business School will talk about
the decline of the commitment to educate a "general manager" - one with
attention to and a moral commitment to many stakeholders - to a present
day approach that is dominated by a technical and finance/economics
based curriculum focused on shareholders and shareholder wealth.
The talk will be on Saturday night, August 9, 6 p.m. - 7:15, with a
reception to follow until 9 p.m.
Venue: Doubletree Guest Suites Anaheim Resort/Convention Center
2085 S. Harbor Blvd. (cross street is W. Orangewood Ave)
Hotel telephone 714 750-3000
