i am working on the wordpress templates so if you see things changing or can’t find a certain page, please be patient.

EGOS (the european group for organisational studies) is having their 22nd Colloquium July 6 – 8, 2006 in Bergen, Norway. the call for papers has past but here’s the conference information.

the theme is ‘The Organizing Society’ with a series of sub-themes

most interesting is sub-theme 11:
Trust Within and Across Boundaries: Conceptual Challenges and Empirical Insights (though several look interesting). i hope they put additional details on the web – maybe even podcasts of the sessions!!!!
