CBSIG Welcomes Faculty & Doctoral Students Interested in Consumer Behavior

angeline — Wed, 10 Aug 2011 20:22:24 +0000

Dear Faculty and Doctoral Students Interested in Consumer Behavior,

We hope you are off to what will be a great new academic year and that your latest milestone (classes, comps, defenses, publications) are getting one step closer. CBSIG wants to invite you and welcome you to join our fun and motivated group of cb scholars. Our goals are simple: to be AMA’s resource for consumer behavior academics. We provide socials at every AMA conference, often provide a special session on a hot cbtopic, and sometimes sponsor off-site events. For instance, last weekend, we sponsored an off-site dinner at a nice restaurant. We also sponsor a coffee break at each ACR conference, as the CBSIG community is often ACR bound. We also have the CBSIG Quarterly, edited by Linda Tuncay, that goes to members.

Things we are working on include: a best cb paper award for an AMA conference, an off-site learning event, and updating our website to keep it fresh and relevant for cb scholars.

We will also be seeking a new officer that will serve as a doctoral student liaison (as ours, Yupin, has graduated and now serves as our international liaison as she is in Thailand).

We may also seek a new officer to add some fresh content to cbsig.org that is relevant to cb-interested doctoral students.

Our leadership team consists of mainly assistant professors, so we are a great resource for emerging scholars.

You may call AMA at 1800 AMA 1150 to add the content SIG of your choice. There are many excellent SIGs, and regardless of which you choose,

we hope that it is the best fit for your career goals.

Please contact a CBSIG officer (under the officer tabs, above) or myself if you are interested in joining our group or just have questions.

On behalf of the CBSIG members,

::Angeline
