FACULTY POSITION IN MANAGEMENT Entrepreneurship
The School of Business of The George Washington University (GWSB) invites applications and nominations for a tenure-track faculty position in the Department of Management beginning in August 2011. We are particularly interested in candidates with a strong commitment to research and teaching in entrepreneurship, new venture initiation and social entrepreneurship with a secondary focus on management, leadership and organizational behavior. We encourage innovative research of the highest quality and seek applicants who aim to publish in journals which have an impact on the fields of entrepreneurship and management. Candidates should also be willing to contribute to the mission of the department and have a desire to work closely with doctoral candidates. The Department’s work in entrepreneurship, and in particular its award winning work on Women’s Entrepreneurial Leadership and the Center for Entrepreneurial Excellence (CFEE:www.gw-cfee.org), has attracted favorable attention from around the globe. CFEE is also home to the international office of the International Council for Small Business and the editorial home of the Journal of Small Business Management.
