Managing in a New World A New Beginning

The School of Business & Technology is proud to announce the first annual

GLOBAL ACADEMIC CONFERENCE; a real and virtual “global commons” for educators, practitioners, researchers, administrators,

faculty developers, and graduate students in recognizing excellence in business education worldwide.

In a time of crisis, people's behaviors and perspectives change irrevocably. As we begin to emerge from a worldwide economic down-

turn, it will be critical to understand what the new norms are and - most important - how to adapt to managing in the new world as practitioners,

educators and researchers. This conference will provide practitioners, educators and researchers with an opportunity to examine and present ideas

and the new teaching and learning issues that are resulting from this complex business climate in a real and virtual 'global commons'.

This conference will be your global commons for discussing and answering questions surrounding the

conference theme. Is there a new business environment resulting from the global economic crisis? How are companies and universities

adapting and how is management changing in this new world? What are the

economic, leadership, and technological consequences of this ‘new’ way of handling business? Has teaching changed as a result of the

global economic crisis? Do we have to change the way we teach, and if so, in what ways can teaching model this transformed business climate?

TOPICS: leadership, global competitiveness, new economics, scholarship of

teaching and learning in business education, innovative curriculum, new role for government, identifying and developing human capital,

corporate social responsibility, entrepreneurship, market-forces of a new generation, management in a global context, social and technology-

driven innovation, international relations, ethics, public policy; and, cultural, social and environmental issues in which business organizations operate.
