We are looking forward to welcoming the academic and research community to the beautiful city of Dubrovnik from 23rd–24th April 2021 for the 9th International OFEL Conference, hosted by the University of Dubrovnik, Department of Economics and Business Economics.
OFEL 2020 was our eighth conference to date, with high profile plenary sessions and over a hundred papers presented across 4 major tracks. The OFEL 2021 conference offers a unique opportunity for scholars and practitioners interested in the issues related to leadership, governance, management, education, and entrepreneurship to share their thinking and latest research findings.
We are also very pleased to announce that in conjunction with the OFEL 2021 conference, a PhD student and junior faculty research development workshop will be held by the Academy of Management (AoM) OMT Division. For the ninth year in a row, this academic writing workshop will enrich the experience of our participants.
