Welcome to OBWeb, the official web site of the OB Division!
|  The OB Division is devoted to the study of individuals and groups within organizational contexts. Members of the OB Division are actively engaged in understanding organizational processes and practices as they affect individuals and groups. (Want to take a closer look at our Division’s domain statement?) The OB Division is the largest division within the Academy of Management, with more than 5500 members.
With such a broad mission, and with such a large membership, it would be easy for our members to get lost in the crowd. That’s why the OB Division’s mantra is “making connections.” We want to create bridges across the boundaries that separate people with shared interests. Sure, it’s easy to make connections at the annual meeting, but what about the other 51 weeks of the year? When you can’t be physically connected with other Division members, OBWeb can keep you cyber-connected.
OBWeb is one way that you can make connections with the OB Division and its members. But it’s not the only way. The OB Division also maintains a listserve that provides a forum for members to post announcements, share questions, and engage in a dialogue about Organizational Behavior issues. (Want to sign up for the listserve? Just follow these simple instructions.)
Thanks for being part of the OB Division – the Division that makes connections!
Carol T. Kulik
OB Division Chair
