Thank you all for your wonderful response to this year’s call for papers and theme: The Power of One, The Power of Many.  We received well over 200 papers and this year’s program promises to be outstanding.  We have sessions containing papers, symposia, panels, professional development workshops, cases, and exercises – all very exciting!  We are working on securing fantastic keynote speakers, including Navin Gurnaney from Starbucks, who will be speaking about the entrepreneurial spirit at Starbucks.  In addition, we have doctoral, junior faculty, and mid/senior-career consortia, which are always truly enlightening. 

Please be sure to register for the conference and make your hotel reservations through our website at www.eam.aquinex.com.  The deadline for conference registration is fast approaching and the hotel is filling very quickly, so make your reservations as soon as possible.

Come join us in Washington, D.C. for a fabulous meeting and to enjoy a fabulous city!  I look forward to seeing you all there!
