Apologies for the unsolicited and impersonal message (and apologies for cross-postings), but I thought you might be interested in the following announcement.
The Fit Project at the Open University is proud to be hosting the first 1st International Online Conference on Fit. It will take place online (the environmentally-friendly way of getting colleagues together) on the 20th-22nd November 2007 and it is completely free.
The online conference will cover all forms of 'fit' (e.g. person–organization fit, person-job fit, person–vocation fit) and we welcome submissions of all types (e.g. theoretical, conceptual, methodological, empirical, provocative essay, review).
You can find out more about the e-conference at: www.fitconference.com
Please sign-up, it commits you to nothing, but will give you reminders and information about the online conference as it becomes available (such as news of the keynote speakers). It will also give us a guide to the numbers of people that might 'attend' the conference.
I hope to 'see' you in November.
All the best,
Jon
