122: MSR Retreat: Think Less, Think Better (17430)

This PDW is built on the historical foundations of the Management, Spirituality, and Religion division (MSR) retreat, which was designed to build integrative relational connections that would generate productive collaborations amongst interdisciplinary scholars and practitioners. Through the process of engaging with “unfamiliar ideas,” a key concept in the AOM Theme “Innovating for the Future.” participants will be experimenting with embodied tools in an atmosphere of shared discovery. If successful, this PDW will launch new projects that combine previously disparate approaches into innovative ways of solving key global challenges. The theme of this PDW is taken from the title of a piece, “Think Less, Think Better.” It invites us to engage in spiritual and religious practices that reduce mental overload (think less), so that we can have a stronger ability to engage with the ideas and concepts that we encounter at the AOM conference (think better). Structured over 5.5 hours, participants will be invited to co-create the PDW through sharing spiritual and/or religious practices followed by dialog around how our experiences relate to topics of human flourishing in research, teaching, and practice.

This PDW requires additional registration in order to participate: https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fsafe.aom.org%2fevents%2fregistration.aspx%3fevent%3dMSR2024&c=E,1,wOLB5BeM_EdY7fcUnoUhKLS2dIqWGVa2QRvrUqOVj4QmWYZUK9IrdzVNJ2StmLcZxT-yYRWVDsX129KgYxp2TTJxuSpSf-YtpAnjmPiCIXgIxZWdDu49dR8,&typo=1
