It is mid-day Saturday and I have had a productive morning. I just completed the keywords and abstract for my JIDR publication which was an oversight from several weeks ago. I always underestimate all of the details and effort associated with a publication!
I am also spending some time this afternoon working on an application for the Emerald/EFMD Outstanding Doctoral Research Awards. Again, not a small undertaking if I want to submit a quality application, but the sooner I get started the sooner I finish. I hope to have the application, along with a letter of reference from Henley, completed in the next two weeks.
I have three remaining tasks for 2015. First, I plan to connect with some professors at Ryerson and UofT to discuss future opportunities. Second, I would like to contact a US researcher to ascertain her interest in a join publication. Finally, I need to provide an update to Henley and Rotman contacts about my recent publication and plans on the domestic front. Time for lunch now and then the final push!
