    2009 ONE DOCTORAL DISSERTATION AWARD

    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
    organization/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 Division meeting in
    Chicago, August 2009.

    Dissertation entries for 2009 must have been, or will be, successfully
    defended between May 1, 2008 and June 15, 2009. A complete application
    will include:
    * an electronic copy (MS Word format) of your dissertation,
    * an electronic copy of an abstract of not more than 10
    double-spaced pages (The abstract should NOT identify either the author
    or the university),
    * the dissertation committee's signature page, including
    university name and date of successful defense,
    * a separate title page, including author's address, phone numbers
    (business and home), fax number, and e-mail address.

    Since the criteria for this award considers relevance, methodological
    appropriateness, scholarly contribution, and practical implications, we
    suggest you include the following information in your abstract to help
    us evaluate your dissertation:

    research will contribute to both research and practice.
    * Literature Review/Theory Building: Identify the research literatures
    you used to develop your research question and your specific hypotheses.
    If possible, provide an appropriate graphic/table that describes your
    research model and hypotheses.
    * Method: Briefly summarize your sample, data collection procedures,
    variables, and analysis procedures.
    * Results: Provide a summary of your results and describe how these
    results relate to your research question.
    * Future Research: Tell us how your research will stimulate the research
    of others.
