POMS College of Behavior in Operations Management (CBOM) aims to create a community of researchers, educators and practitioners who deal with study of human behavior issues to make POM more effective.

On May 10th, immediately following the main conference, the college is hosting a mini-conference consisting of a selection of outstanding speakers originating from industry and academia followed by a panel discussion.

To make optimal use of the occasion and to provide a platform for presenting research and connecting people with similar research interests, the College wants to offer the opportunity for presenting poster presentations before speakers, during the break and after the forum discussion.

Those interested in making a poster presentation should prepare a one-page abstract (Times New Roman style, font 12, single spaced). Kindly underline the name of the person(s) who will make the poster presentation. Authors of the selected abstracts need to prepare a summary of their submissions on up to twelve A4 or 8”x10” papers (please use large font sizes). The conference participants will walk around and review the posted research. Poster presentations by doctoral candidates, early stage researchers and practitioners are highly encouraged.

Kindly e-mail the abstract to Björn Claes (bjorn.claes@canfield.ac.uk) or Pauline Found (foundpa1@Cardiff.ac.uk).

Deadline for the submission of abstracts: March 31st, 2010.
