[Paradice, David]

Call for Participation
ICIS2012 Junior Faculty Consortium, Orlando, Florida, U.S.A., 16 December 2012
Applications are invited from all IS junior faculty to participate in the Junior Faculty Consortium which will take place on Sunday, 16 December 2012 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The event will be held at the conference venue, Marriott World Center Resort in Orlando, Florida.
The Junior Faculty Consortium consists of panels, discussions, role-playing, and other interactive sessions built around issues related to becoming a successful member of the professoriate. Each activity will be facilitated by a select group of highly-successful IS faculty from universities around the world. This will allow each participant to interact with a wide variety of both new and senior faculty and to share their experiences, thoughts, and concerns about developing a career in academia.
Topics may include: research strategies, publishing issues, building a network of colleagues, teaching strategies and issues, service, tenure pitfalls and experiences, time management, collegiality and academic norms, work-life balance, and career planning.
The consortium is intended to not only provide some answers, but to provoke you to think about your own personal issues and challenges to become successful in academia.
