~ I wanted to personally invite you to consider submitting to the upcoming conference for the Interdisciplinary Network for Group Research (INGRroup). INGRoup attendees present research on the cutting edge of group and team studies and do so from multiple disciplinary perspectives. You can learn more about the organization at this link - ingroup.net. Summary information is below and the CFP is available at this link (ingroup.net/documents/INGRoup_2015_CFP_final.pdf). As some of you already know, we have created a unique interdisciplinary and collegial culture at INGRoup. Indeed, we often hear comments such as Ive never been to a conference like this! or There are so many talks I want to attend! and Everyone is so open to discussion!. So please consider submitting and/or attending. And please pass this on to any colleagues you think might be interested. Thank you, Stephen M.

No extensions to the deadline will be granted. Overview Societies are dependent on the formation and utilization of groups and teams, making them relevant to countless aspects of life. Accordingly, scholars who study groups can be found across a wide array of disciplines (e.g., anthropology, communication, education, history, information systems, nursing, organizational behavior, philosophy, psychology, political science, public health, sociology). The Interdisciplinary Network for Group Research (INGRoup) was created to provide a context for scholars to: · Promote communication about groups and teams research across fields and nations · Advance understanding about group dynamics through research · Advance theory and methods for understanding groups and teams · Promote interdisciplinary research The 10th Anniversary INGRoup Conference will be held so scholars across disciplines can come together, share information, and learn from one another. The conference program will include paper, poster, symposia, and panel sessions, a keynote address, and a business meeting open to all members so the future of INGRoup can be collectively planned and shaped. Submissions An online system (accessible via ingroup.net) will be made available from November 15, 2014 to February 1, 2015 (23:59:59, Eastern Standard Time). All submissions must be accompanied by a 50-word abstract for inclusion in the conference program. Submitters will be required to provide full name, position, institution, discipline, and contact information for all authors. Submissions that include participants from a variety of disciplinary traditions are highly encouraged. Excluding poster submissions, scholars can be the presenting author on no more than two submissions. Submissions that involve research that has been previously presented at other professional conferences should be modified so that they are not identical to past presentations, and, most importantly, should be tailored to suit INGRoup’s interdisciplinary audience.
