Managing in a New World (Global Academic Conference)

The School of Business & Technology conference committee organizes the first annual GLOBAL CONFERENCE; a real and virtual “global commons” for educators, practitioners, researchers, administrators, faculty developers, and graduate students in recognizing excellence in business education worldwide.

In a time of crisis, people's behaviors and perspectives change irrevocably. As we begin to emerge from a worldwide economic down-turn, it will be critical to understand what the new norms are and - most important - how to adapt to managing in the new world as practitioners, educators and researchers. This conference will provide practitioners, educators and researchers with an opportunity to examine and present ideas and the new teaching and learning issues that are resulting from this complex business climate in a real and virtual 'global commons'.
