The 6th Conference on Commitment will be held just prior to the 2025 Academy of Management Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark. The conference will be a mix of invited (30%) and peer reviewed (70%) presentations. There will be a single track of presentations of a variety of lengths and formats. The small size of the conference promotes opportunities for informal interaction and dialogue among attendees to facilitate networking, collaboration, the sharing of ideas, and in-depth discussions. Individuals from any field concerned with the study of commitment are welcome to attend.

Individuals interested in presenting at the conference need to submit an abstract for consideration, we seek abstract proposals on work in progress, as opposed to studies in the final stages. Submissions may address any aspect of commitment with a preference given to papers that (a) advance the commitment literature by providing new insights, perspectives, or methodologies and/or (b) address the conference theme – Rethinking workplace bonds in the contemporary employment context.
