Jeanneret Grant, Katzell Award Deadlines July 31

Applications for the P. Richard Jeanneret Grant for Research about Assessing and Developing Senior Leaders and nominations for the 2021 Raymond A. Katzell Award in I-O Psychology are being accepted through midnight ET July 31, 2020.

The one-time, $11,000 Jeanneret research grant is available for research about senior leaders for the 2021 award year only.

The overarching goal for this grant is to build on the accepted wisdom and research needs identified by Reynolds et al. (2018). Thus, the research should yield new insights in one of the following areas: the evolving criteria for successful leadership, measuring leadership potential, the role of context in senior-level assessment, the role of line managers in using assessment data and in developing senior leaders, the effectiveness of current assessment and development practices at the senior level, or the use of new concepts or technologies for assessing senior leaders and predicting their work performance. Priority will be given to proposals that are a cooperative effort between practitioners and academics.

For more information, including guidelines for proposal budgets, criteria for selecting award winners, and format of the proposal, visit the P. Richard Jeanneret Grant for Research about Assessing and Developing Senior Leaders webpage.

The Raymond A. Katzell Award in I-O Psychology is designed to recognize a SIOP member who, in a major way, has shown to the general public the importance of work done by I-O psychology for addressing social issues.

The award recipient will receive a plaque commemorating the achievement and a cash prize of $3,000.

Nomination guidelines, criteria for selecting award winners, and the link to the online nomination program can be found on the Foundation’s Achievement Awards and Best Paper Awards webpage.
