    Dear CAREERS Division Members and Friends,

    With December approaching, the preparations for the 2018 Academy of Management meeting are in full swing. Four committees were formed to help achieve some specific goals set for 2017-2018:

    • The "Membership" committee, which objective is "to increase AOM CAR membership at a rate that at least exceeds the rate of members leaving the division"
    • The "Member Engagement" committee, which objective is "to get CAR members engaged both during and outside of the AOM conference; to offer a home to career scholars beyond the annual conference"
    • The "CAR Profile" committee, which objective is to "raise the profile of the division (a) to make sure people know the division is about research (as opposed to placement) and (b) to improve the quality of the scholarly submissions"
    • The "Fundraising" committee, which objective is to "secure robust funding by reaching out to publishers, systematically helping our Executive Committee with making the ask to their schools, applying for grants, etc."

    We are currently looking for volunteers to assist the different committees in achieving their goals. Volunteers are the roots of strong communities. Even the tiniest volunteer effort leaves a profound and lasting trace in a community. If you are interested in volunteering for the CAR Division, please complete this short volunteer survey (est. response time is < 1 minute) so that we can get to know a bit more about you and what you are looking for. Thank you!

    Bert Schreurs
