Know Thyself: Influences on the Careers of Management Academics

Academia has changed over the last decades and so have academic careers. In this symposium, we look at different facets of work in academia that influence academic careers in management. We explore in particular the effects of different evaluations of academic research output, the utility of collaborations and social support systems, challenges of an international career, and motivations for professional engagement and service. At the conclusion of the symposium, Susan Taylor will discuss larger implications for research on careers in general and academic careers in particular.
