Major Happenings and Events Summer 2011 - Sabbatical has started! I have one year to catch up with research and literature December 2010 - Received the Best Paper Award at the Australasian Conference on Information Systems, Brisbane, Australia, 2010 October 2010 - Received a final acceptance from MIS Quarterly (together with Ofir Turel and Paul Giles). 1.5 years of hard work. Three response notes to the AE and reviewers (who were extremely helpful and professional) were 50,000 words in total. A great learning experience and lots of new research ideas! January 2010 - Received 2009 Researcher of the Year Award, the Faculty of Business Administration, Lakehead University July 2009 - Received 'Revise & Resubmit' from MIS Quarterly. This means to change the questionnaire, get new data, re-do the analysis, and re-write most of the paper. But this is not something to complain about! December 2008 - Got a PADI scuba diving licence (open water diver) in Cancun; saw a real shark in the ocean. In fact, sharks don't attack divers unless they spearfish or do something silly July 2008 - Received Tenure and Promotion (in only 2.5 years) August 2007 - A paper was nominated for the best paper award at AMCIS 2007 (together with Nick Bontis and Ofir Turel) July 2007 - Was nominated by the Faculty and have won the Contribution to Research Award, Lakehead University.

Well, why did it take them 1.5 years to tell us?????? We all know academia is slow, but isn't it too slow? Sept 2005 - to relax after teaching six hours of business statistics, went fishing together with my family. We found a stray kitten in the forest.
