  • 1.  SIM annual election opening shortly - please plan to vote

    Dear SIM colleagues (please let me know at odw@rice.edu if you
    discover any errors in the information below):

    The annual SIM election is scheduled to open approximately Monday 16
    April and remain open for a month through approximately Friday 18 May
    (online through Academy of Management). You should receive
    confirmation and instructions from Academy of Management (I believe)
    shortly. (The election is run by the Academy, so this information is
    tentative.) Please plan to vote (online). Generally the ballot is
    organized as follows (with a write-in option for each position):

    Division Chair: Tom Donaldson is the recommended candidate (advancing
    from division chair - elect).
    Division Chair - Elect: Linda Trevino is the recommended candidate
    (advancing from program chair).
    Program Chair: Ann Buchholtz is the recommended candidate (advancing
    from program chair - elect).

    Program Chair - Elect (Professional Development Workshop Chair,
    advancing in future years to Program Chair and Division Chair): there
    are 3 candidates proposed by the SIM nominations committee (in
    alphabetical order), and you may vote for only 1 person -
    Stephen Brammer
    Pursey Heugens
    Barry Mitnick
    Write-In

    Representatives-at-Large (3-year terms, 2007-2010): there are 6
    candidates proposed by the SIM nominations committee (in alphabetical
    order), and you may (and should) vote for up to 2 (there are 2 positions open):
    Andrew Crane
    Jonathan Doh
    Jeffrey Frooman
    Douglas May
    Lori Ryan
    Douglas Schuler
    Write-In

    For the contested positions, you should find for each candidate a
    description statement and a photograph (online).

    The outgoing representatives-at-large (completing 3-year terms) are
    Laquita Blockson and Patricia Kelley. The SIM governing body thanks
    both for their service.

    The continuing reps-at-large and terms of office are:
    2006-09 (elected last year)
    Rosa Chun (Manchester Business School, UK)
    Heather Elms (American University)
    2005-08
    Jamie Hendry (Bucknell University)
    Pursey Heugens (Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University)

    If Pursey Heugens should be elected to the program chair - elect
    position, then the top 3 candidates in the representative-at-large
    election would be elected to the SIM governing board.

    The SIM nominations committee thanks all individuals who were
    nominated for these positions, but were not selected for the slates;
    and also all individuals who participated in the nominating process
    (either directly to the nominations committee or through the new
    Academy of Management online nominating device).
