Academy of Management Mentoring Committee:
Mentoring Legacy Award Call for Nominations
Nomination Deadline:
March 31, 2006
In alternating years, the Academy of Management Mentoring Committee honors individuals with the Mentoring Legacy Award and the Mentoring Best Practices Award. The Mentoring Legacy Award is given in even years to recognize scholars whose work has been germinal to the research and study of mentoring.
We were very pleased to honor
Belle Rose Ragins
with the Mentoring Legacy Award at the 2004 Academy of Management meeting in New Orleans.
The Mentoring Committee is currently inviting applicants for the 2006 Mentoring Legacy Award. We seek to honor those individuals whose work has influenced and shaped the mentoring discourse, both inside and outside of the Academy. While we believe that one-to-one mentoring is very important, we are not seeking nominations for individuals who have acted as mentors. Several divisions offer “Best Mentor” awards for that type of activity.
Criteria for selection include: an enduring contribution to research on mentoring with important and innovative ideas; advancement of knowledge about mentoring, including conceptual, empirical, or theoretical developments; collaboration with junior scholars in the field; and/or evidenced influence on direction for future research in the field of mentoring. Nominations are made by submitting a 1-2 page letter of support outlining the contributions of the candidate accompanied by the candidate’s cv.
Submissions must be received by March 31, 2006. The nominations will be evaluated by a committee composed
of members of the Academy of Management Mentoring Committee. The recipient of the award will be notified by May 31, 2006.
Please send nominations to:
