2014 ONE Division Scholarly Program: Call for Submissions
Specific Domain: research, theories and practices regarding relationships of organizations and the natural environment. Major themes include the social, ethical, technological, strategic, operational, structural, behavioral, theoretical, international, health-care, educational, methodological, historical, human resource, information and change management dimensions related to bringing organizations into balance with the ecosystem. As the natural environment is integral in all individual, organizational and societal activity, the division encourages holistic, integrative, and interdisciplinary analysis. It promotes joint exploration of these topics with all other disciplines and Academy units.
Special Instructions: The ONE division invites papers that address all aspects of the relationship between organizations and the natural environment. The 2014 Academy theme, 'The Power of Words', encourages consideration of the use of language, persuasion, messaging, signaling and other important dimensions of defining and communicating sustainability challenges and opportunities. The ONE Division encourages 2014 submissions that reflect on the power and impact of various communications contexts and mediums and their relationship to our domain, as well as general submissions that reflect on any aspect of the role of business, enterprise, management and organization in sustainable development. Because of this trans-disciplinary focus, ONE specifically welcomes joint symposium proposals that reflect the natural links between with other Academy divisions and interest groups.
It is critical that you sign up this year as one of our ONE reviewers. The reviewers sign up website is: http://aom.org/annualmeeting/review/. Finally, the submission website is: http://aom.org/annualmeeting/submission/ (it will be active in early November when the submission site opens; the deadline for submissions is January 14, 2014 at 5:00 PM ET NY Time).

When submitting papers, please also indicate eligibility for the William H Newman Award for an outstanding single-authored paper from a dissertation and the Carolyn Dexter Best International Paper Award (see Orientation and Awards section in the submission guidelines for more details).
