Theme: Innovating for the Future: Policy, Purpose, and Organizations This year's conference theme, "Innovating for the Future: Policy, Purpose, and Organizations," explores the intersection of policy, purpose, and innovation in the face of accelerating technological advancements, such as AI and automation. The conference aims to foster a nuanced understanding of these dynamics to ensure responsible technological integration and equitable outcomes.
Management History's Unique Perspective: Management history plays a crucial role in addressing contemporary challenges. As we navigate the transformative period of the information age, the MH Division provides a platform to draw insights from past responses to technological and societal changes. We invite submissions from scholars and practitioners to contribute to our understanding of historical developments in management, organizations, and business.
Submission Opportunities: We welcome symposium and paper submissions through the Submission Center, which opens early in December. Please visit the Call for Submissions page for detailed information and guidelines.

The MH Division also nominates a best paper on an international subject or theme for the Academy's Carolyn Dexter Award and a best student paper for the William H. Newman Award; consistent with the criteria for those honors. Authors that believe their papers are eligible for any of these awards should self-nominate when submitting to ensure they are included in that selection process.
