Congratulations to Professor John Van Maann, Everett Cherrington Hughes Award Recipient, 2013

  • 1.  Congratulations to Professor John Van Maann, Everett Cherrington Hughes Award Recipient, 2013

    On behalf of the Careers Division, I am delighted to congratulate Professor John Van Maanen from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on being awarded the Division's highest honor, the Everett Cherrington Hughes Award for Careers Scholarship.

    The Hughes award recognizes scholarship which has made a significant contribution to the task of linking careers theory with the broader field of organization studies.  It is the Careers Division's premier award, a way of honoring those who have worked to build bridges between careers and other areas of organizational enquiry.

    The aim of this award is to acknowledge the work of scholars who have forged, rather than severed, connections between careers and other fields of social inquiry. The award carries, with the permission of his family, the name of Everett Cherrington Hughes. It does so to commemorate his seminal role in establishing careers as an object of scholarly study, but more particularly because it rewards the kind of contribution his work embodied. Past recipients of the award are: Edgar Schein, Tim Hall, Lotte Bailyn, Michael Arthur, Jeffrey Greenhaus, Barbara Lawrence, and Kathy Kram.      

    On behalf of the Division, I would like to extend special thanks to the hard work of the Hughes Award Committee, Professor Maury Peiperl (IMD, Switzerland), Professor Monica Higgins (Harvard University, USA) and Professor Denise Rousseau (Carnegie Mellon University, USA).
     
    A formal announcement and presentation of the award will be made at the Divisional Business Meeting at the AoM in Orlando on Monday 12th of August, 4.30pm-6.00pm, WDW Dolphin Resort, Asia 3.

    Please join us on congratulating Professor Van Maanen on this outstanding achievement and do make plans to attend the presentation of the award in Orlando.

    News of this award and further follow up information will be posted on the 'newly renovated' Careers Division Website: http://www.cardiv.org/  If you have any news or events you would like to share with colleagues in the Division please contact me directly.

    Regards
    Julia
