The Bruce and Jane Walsh Grant in Memory of John Holland supports scientific, scholarly or applied research and/or educational activities investigating how personality, culture and environment influence work behavior and health (mental and physical).

Preference will be given to early career psychologists (ten years or less postdoctoral), and pilot projects that, if successful, would be strong candidates for support from major federal and foundation funding agencies, and "demonstration projects" that promise to generalize broadly to similar settings in other geographical areas and/or to other settings.

Award celebrates excellence in evidence-based HR practices and programs

BOWLING GREEN, OHIO—The Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP) and the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), together with their foundations, are now accepting applications for the premier international award honoring organizations with outstanding evidence-based HR management practices.

The HRM Impact Award celebrates evidence-based corporate culture, and helps recipients highlight their employee value proposition to attract and retain top HR talent.

​Practitioner Speed Benchmarking Session to Take Place at SIOP Conference

Would you like to network and benchmark with other practitioners facing similar challenges?

Be a part of the Professional Practice Committee’s Practitioner Speed Benchmarking Event!

If you’re a mid-to-late career practitioner, you’re invited to participate in facilitated benchmark discussions at our Speed Benchmarking event taking place Thursday, April 4, from 4:30-6:00 pm in National Harbor 14 at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center.

The Annual Meeting of the Southern Management Association has begun accepting submissions until April 5th, 2019. 
As this year’s track chairs, we would like to personally invite you to submit a paper, symposium, and/or a Professional Development Institute (PDI) proposal for consideration as part of this year’s conference. We imagine that the members of SIOP would be particularly interested in submitting to either the Organizational Behavior track or the joint Human Resource Management/Research Methods track. 

We hope you’ll consider contributing to this year’s conference program, which would benefit tremendously from the shared expertise of the members of SIOP! 

#SIOP19 Theme Track Advances Science Practice Translation

The Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology embraces the integration of science and practice, a concept memorialized in SIOP’s strategic goals as, “Model and reinforce the effective integration of science and practice.”

SIOP membership draws heavily from both the academic and practice arenas, and the Society is richer for the different perspectives they bring. As any baker will tell you, how the ingredients are combined can make all the difference in the texture and flavor of the end product.

President Talya Bauer has made integration of the two perspectives a central part of her leadership, with the Science–Practice Opportunities for Translation (SPOT) Task Force. (Read an update on the SPOT Task Force in her most recent TIP column.)
