    The annual Doctoral Dissertation Award recognizes recent doctoral work in the Organizations and Natural Environment (ONE) area.  Eligible dissertations must focus on some aspect of the natural environment and organizations/society, however the particular discipline in which the dissertation is written is not a consideration.  Criteria for selection include relevance, methodological appropriateness, scholarly contribution, and practical implications.  Applications and dissertations must be in English. The successful applicant will receive a recognition plaque as well as a cash award at the annual Academy of Management meeting of the ONE Interest Group in Atlanta, August 2006.

    Dissertation entries for 2006 must have been successfully defended between May 1, 2004 and June 15, 2006.  A complete application will include: an electronic copy of your dissertation, as well as electronic copies of an abstract of not more than 10 double-spaced pages and of the dissertation committee???s signature page, including university name and date of successful defense, as well as a separate title page, including author???s address, phone numbers (business and home), fax number, and e-mail address. . The abstract should NOT IDENTIFY either the author or the university.  To be considered for the award, these materials must be received by the Teaching Committee by June 22, 2006.

    Doctoral Dissertation Award: Call for Nominations


    The ONE Doctoral Dissertation Award recognizes recent doctoral work in the area of organizations and natural environment. The winner receives a plaque from the ONE Division and its co-sponsor Sage Publications, a $500 check, courtesy of Sage, recognition at the annual AoM Business Meeting, as well as a listing with other past winners on the ONE Home Page.

    To be eligible, a dissertation must focus on some aspect of organizations and the natural environment and must have been conducted by a ONE Division member. In addition, the dissertation must have been (or will be) defended between May 1, 2012 and May 1, 2013.

    To apply for the award, an applicant should:


    * E-mail an abstract of not more than ten double-spaced pages, in English, to the committee chair.
    * Attach a file with a separate title page, including author’s address, phone numbers (business and home), fax number, and preferred e-mail address.
    * Send a scanned copy of the dissertation committee’s signature page, which should display the university’s name, the successful defense date, and all committee signatures.
    * Include any important caveats or conditions, such as whether the author was not the lead author on one or more chapters of the dissertation.[1]<https://mail.lmu.edu/owa/?ae=Item&a=New&t=IPM.Note&cc=MTQuMS4zNTUuMixlbi1VUyw0Mjk0OTY3Mjk1LEhUTUwsMCww&pspid=_1361464724978_740954163#_ftn1>

    Please be certain that all components discussed above reach the committee chair, Professor Dev Jennings (dev.jennings@ualberta.ca<mailto:dev.jennings@ualberta.ca>) by May 1, 2013.

    After receiving the applications, the ONE Dissertation Committee will examine all the abstracts and select finalists for a more thorough screening, based on each person’s full dissertation. We will contact finalists in early June for a WORD or .pdf copy, in English, of the complete dissertation.

    For the sake of consistency, the screening criteria for the initial and final screening will be the same: relevance, scholarly contribution, theoretical and methodological rigor, as well as practical implications. Given these selection criteria, the committee suggests that applicants submit abstracts that, in some way, address each criterion.

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact the committee chair (Dev Jennings) or other ONE officers.

    Thank you for your interest!

    The ONE Dissertation Awards Committee
