The meeting theme, "Green Management Matters," encourages us to consider how our ongoing scholarly activities-including teaching, research and service--might shape and be shaped by society's increasing concern about responsible stewardship of the natural environment. For many of us, the connection between our work and the issue of environmental sustainability is not obvious. Yet making this connection might be a powerful means to increasing the relevance of our scholarship, examine the important relationship between management and environmental sustainability, and consider the question of how our work can inform managers and students who wish to better understand why and how "Green Management Matters."

Join us Sunday morning, August 9, for AOM's inaugural Welcoming Session to kick off the 2009 Meeting. A continental breakfast will be served. We also invite you to attend the Closing Reception on Tuesday evening, August 11, for an exciting night of entertainment, networking and refreshments. With these new events at the Annual Meeting, there will no longer be a Tuesday Presidential Luncheon.

The Chicago Local Arrangements Committee (LAC) is supporting the theme by not printing t-shirts, but encouraging attendees to make direct contributions to Growing Power, Inc., an organization dedicated to helping the environment.
