> Dear All

> On its tenth anniversary in 2012, we are delighted to be able to announce
> that the Art of Management and Organization Conference will be returning to
> the UK. A call for stream proposals will be issued very soon and will be
> distributed at this summer's round of conferences, but this is a
> pre-announcement for AACORN members in appreciation of your recent efforts
> to support the continuation of the conference.
>
> The conference will be chaired by myself and hosted by Bristol Business
> School at the University of Western England, on its Frenchay campus through
> the Bristol Centre for Leadership and Organizational Ethics, which is
> directed by Prof Peter Case, a former professional jazz pianist. Louise
> Grisoni, who is a long-standing AACORN member, convenor of the POEME
> working group and of the poetry streams at previous conferences will lead
> an enthusiastic and experienced local team. The University has superb
> conference facilities with lots of flexible space, affordable on site
> accommodation, and its own Centre for the Performing Arts. Bristol itself,
> shortlisted for European Capital of Culture in 2008, is one of England's
> most culturally distinguished cities (from folk through popular to high
> culture), with world class arts facilities, the oldest repertory theatre
> outside London, and its own annual Festival of Ideas. It has everything and
> is one of my favourite places.
>
> The team will be able to draw on the collective wisdom of a very talented
> international advisory board with enormous experience of organizing
> conferences and arts-based events: Ceri Watkins (Essex), Ian King
> (University of the Arts), Daved Barry (CBS), Steve Taylor (WPI), Phil
> Hancock (Warwick), Chris Poulson (San Diego), Sam Warren (Essex), Garance
> Marechal (Liverpool) and Hans Hansen (TTU).
>
> Dates are likely to be 4-7th September 2012 if you want to pencil them in.
> We look forward to issuing the detailed Call for Streams with additonal
> information before the end of June.

> Hope to see you all in Bristol - in party mood!
