AMA's Academic Division Special Interest Groups (SIGs) provide opportunities for learning, sharing, networking, and other professional interchange among academic and doctoral members who hold particular common topical interests.

AMA SIGs have two overriding purposes, which are (1) to provide high quality member services through member involvement and (2) to increase the sense of belonging for academicians who join AMA.

Erin Anderson Award - Call for Nominations
Nominations Due November 25, 2011

We, and many others in the marketing community, were deeply saddened by the unexpected death of Erin Anderson in 2007. After winning a battle against cancer earlier that year, her untimely passing robbed her of the opportunity to enjoy her victory.

Erin was a widely respected mentor and scholar whose research made significant contributions to the marketing discipline. During her career, she published over forty scholarly articles in the top academic journals. Her paper on the role of pledges in channel relationships was the first recipient of the Louis Stern Award selected and presented by the AMA IOSIG. Based on her citations, she was in the top 1½ % of researchers in the social sciences.

But Erin was more than a top-notch academic scholar. She was a caring mentor to many Ph.D. students and faculty members. She was a much-loved Ph.D. supervisor and she shared her experiences and insights with many faculty members as they launched their academic careers. Our discipline suffers when such a kind and caring person is no longer in our midst.

One of Erin’s primary interests was encouraging and enabling women in academe; she mentored many junior faculty as they launched their academic careers. To honor Erin and support her interests, the Erin Anderson Award for a female marketing scholar– a woman who we anticipate becoming a leading marketing academic in the mold of Erin Anderson, who went beyond her significant research contributions to help other develop their careers, was established.

Eligibility & Selection Criteria
Women marketing professors who received their marketing (or related field) doctoral degree in or after the 2001 calendar year may be nominated or self-nominate. The criteria for the award focus on what made Erin Anderson unique in the academic world. 1) Research: The recipient should be a woman who is an emerging research star in her area of expertise, as evidenced by her publication record and the impact of those publications on marketing thought and 2) Mentoring: The recipient should be someone who has exceeded the normal expectations for someone of her rank in mentoring doctoral students and junior faculty members.

For additional information or to make a nomination for the award, please go to: Erin Anderson Award.

The 2012 Louis Stern Award

Nominations are sought for the 2012 Louis W. Stern Award. The Stern Award was established by Louis W. and Rhona L. Stern in 1999 through the American Marketing Association Foundation. The award recognizes an outstanding article published in a widely recognized and highly respected refereed journal that has made a significant contribution to the literature on marketing channels and distribution. An article is eligible for consideration between three and eight calendar years after publication. A list of previous award winners as well as a partial list of eligible articles can be requested from the IOSIG Chair (Ursula Sullivan at usullivan@niu.edu).

The selection committee will be chaired by Christian Homburg (University of Mannheim). The committee includes Rajiv P. Dant (University of Oklahoma) and William D. Perreault, Jr. (The University of North Carolina), who will assist in selecting the award recipient(s). Please send your nominations for articles published between 2004 and 2009 by October 31, 2010 via email to the committee chair at chomburg@mail.uni-mannheim.de..
