Job Description:

The School of Management at Binghamton University (State University of New York at Binghamton) invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level in the area of Leadership/Organizational Behavior, starting in mid-August 2023, subject to budgetary approval.

Faculty in the Leadership/OB group and Strategy group at Binghamton University have a strong collegial relationship and regularly collaborate on research topics that integrate micro/macro disciplines, leverage different methodological perspectives (e.g., qualitative, quantitative and mixed-method approaches), and utilize extant multilevel analytical tools (e.g., WABA, RCM/HLM, MSEM, multilevel networks, agent-based simulation). We are seeking a researcher who would complement this orientation, preferably with a research focus in leadership. Specifically, we are looking for a researcher with a strong methodological foundation and willingness to engage in multilevel research and/or with researchers focused on different levels of analysis.

Additionally, we are looking for candidates interested in exploring leadership and workforce development barriers within historically marginalized communities. Industrial/organizational psychology and/or developmental psychology research related to diversity, inclusion and belongingness that complements current leadership and workforce development research will be considered as well. Preference will be given to candidates with funded research and/or a willingness to pursue funded research within the leadership and workforce development area.

Professional Responsibilities. Teaching component is two courses per semester (2 + 2) and requires delivering required/elective courses in Leadership and Organizational Behavior at the undergraduate and graduate program level and contributing to the doctoral program in Leadership/OB. The research component requires publication in high quality journals. The ideal candidate will also contribute to the intellectual environment of the area. Faculty are expected to participate in curriculum development and assessment, and engage in other service duties for the school and the college, both internally and externally. To support faculty research, the school provides summer funding for the first three years of service, contingent on research productivity and classroom success.

The School of Management is AACSB accredited and is nationally recognized for its success in developing future leaders of business. Faculty in the Leadership/OB Group and Strategy Group have published in high-quality journals that include: Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Administrative Sciences Quarterly, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Business Ethics, Journal of Management, Journal of Management Studies, Leadership Quarterly, Organizational Research Methods, Organization Studies, Organization Science, and Personnel Psychology.
