EASTERN ACADEMY OF MANAGEMENT 2019 ANNUAL MEETING

May 8 – 11, 2019 | Wilmington, Delaware

NOTE: NEW SUBMISSION DEADLINE NOVEMBER 30, 2018

Conference Theme: Evolving the Distinguished Keynote Narrative of Business and Careers Speaker: Denise Rousseau

Technological developments and changing societal expectations have reshaped how business and work is done. Sustainability and value creation are seeping into the agenda of even the most profit-driven companies. At the same time, the workforce is more independent and careers more self-managed. The gig economy is giving entrepreneurship a new face. As the traditional notion of the enterprise reinvents itself, management scholars and educators must do more than keep up. We are in a position to set the tone for change, guide sensemaking and contribute to understanding—and many of you are doing so! Share your valuable work at EAM 2019 and together we will evolve the narrative of business and careers.

Join us in downtown Wilmington at the Hotel Dupont: 2 hrs from NY and DC, 60 minutes from Baltimore, 25 minutes from Philly Airport. Courtesy car service to/from Wilmington Amtrak station. Enjoy walkable restaurants, shopping and museums, and nearby Brandywine Valley wine tasting, antiquing and outdooring.
