Dear I/O Psychology Master's Program Coordinators:

 

As Chair of the SIOP Master's Consortium subcommittee, I am writing to
invite you to nominate one of your graduates to serve as a speaker for
the 2009 SIOP Master's Consortium in New Orleans.  The Master's
Consortium is similar to the Doctoral Consortium and is held on the day
prior to the SIOP Conference.  During the consortium, students who are
currently enrolled in I-O master's programs participate in workshops
lead by graduates of master's programs who have excelled in consulting,
business or government. Presenters lead a two hour workshop where they
provide practical advice that will help students succeed in an I/O
related career.  There is a great deal of flexibility for workshop
topics so we can match the workshop topics to the interests and
expertise of the presenters.  For example last year's speakers and
topics included:

*       Genevieve B. Coleman, Vice President of Client Services with
Global Lead Management Consulting, facilitated a workshop entitled,
"Finding and Keeping Your Edge:  10 keys for differentiating yourself in
today's workplace.

*       Warren D. Lindley, Senior HR Business Partner for Global
Marketing at Kellogg Company, led a workshop entitled, "When I/O makes
"cents":  Creating financial value in the corporate world".

*       C.J. Duvall who has held a variety of executive level positions
within HR at Alltel.

If you would like to nominate one of your graduates to serve as a
presenter, please send me their name and contact information.  We are
most interest in graduates of terminal I/O Master's programs who have 3+
years of experience.   The Consortium Committee will select speakers
from the nominations based on the speakers' expertise, location, and
interests.  

 

I would appreciate your help with suggestions for presenters.  Please
send your graduates name and title via email or snail mail to:
