The Academy of Management is proud to launch the AOM Teaching Community. The Teaching Community will bring together AOM members from across disciplines who are committed to rigor, innovation, and impact in the management classroom. The community aims to connect educators around the world to exchange approaches, collaborate across disciplines, share resources, access professional development, and be recognized for their thought leadership in the classroom.
The AOM Teaching Community is built on three pillars:
- Community — meaningful connections and collaboration between educators across disciplines, career stages, and regions.
- Content — a centralized Teaching Resource Library of innovative teaching materials, case studies, and artifacts.
- Events — virtual and in-person events, including monthly webinars and future in-person teaching conferences that bring educators together around the practice of teaching.
Call for Nominations
AOM is seeking self-nominations for the Teaching Community’s founding leadership. This is a rare opportunity to help build and shape a new AOM-wide initiative and influence how AOM supports teaching excellence for years to come.
