Bio
Eric Hall
I had the good fortune of watching Adam, through strategic savvy and determination, grow PRE from a germ of an idea to a successful commercial product. Adam is a dedicated entrepreneur and innovator who has the rare ability to communicate across technical, marketing, and editorial domains with ease. Adam can do it all! He has worked up and down the scholarly communication chain and specializes in identifying opportunity and bringing people together to achieve common goals. Adam takes a thoughtful, consultative approach to problem solving and pursues solutions with tenacity and enthusiasm. He has a passion for scientific discovery and a deep understanding of technology and its place in the scholarly ecosystem. Adam was a pleasure to work for and any organization would be lucky to have someone of his intelligence, kindness, and character.

I reported to Adam for three years while he was Publications Director at the Academy of Management. He brought direction and purpose to a department that was struggling at the time, providing a strategic direction to the association, as well as spearheading multiple new initiatives to update our journals and publications. Adam's knowledge of peer review, product development, marketing, social media, and electronic dissemination of published content were all invaluable assets to AOM--and he was a great boss. His publishing experience is second to none, and any organization would be lucky to have him.
