2012 AMA SERVSIG Doctoral Consortium
If you are a doctoral student or new faculty member with an interest in services marketing, have you been worried about questions like these?
- How do I get the job I really want? What can I expect from the application process and how should I handle it?
- How do I make the transition from a doctoral student to an actual faculty member in a new environment? I want to be successful and enjoy the process!
- How do I develop a stream of quality research and get it published in my target journals?
- How can I be an effective teacher? How should I handle teaching in different settings such as undergraduate versus MBA classes?
- How can I establish successful collaborations with firms from service industries?
- How can I expand my network in the services marketing discipline?
