Our paper has been accepted at the 2015 Academy of Management





Our paper on 'mining MNCs and gender equity in Mekong countries' has been accepted to present at the forthcoming 75th Academy of Management annual meeting in Vancouver.

Key points from this paper will include findings from our fieldwork in both Laos and Thailand regarding power and relationships among Mining MNCs, women and their community. It is our hope that the findings from this project will promote ongoing dialogue on international business and community engagement.

The 75th annual meeting of the academy of management will be held in August 2015 in British Columbia, Canada. The program theme is Opening Governance which is relevant to our project and paper. This them invites all AOM members to consider opportunities to improve the effectiveness and creativity of organizations by restructuring systems at the highest organizational level, and to try to answer the many questions organizational governance faces in today's digital and informational climate.
