Abstract
In this roundtable discussion, we collaboratively explore the transformative potential of micro expressions of care within higher education environments. Our assertion is that a cultivation of micro expressions of care, which we define as subtle yet profound manifestations of empathy, compassion, and relational ethics, has become not just a desirable aspiration but an imperative in our educational ecosystems. Our goal is to engage other academics in a vulnerable, generative, and empathetic discussion regarding the capacity of micro expressions of care to foster inclusivity, support, and well-being in a sector that remains, perhaps more than ever, in need of profound change.

| Other | Welcome to MOBTS Oceania, 2024! We look forward to hosting you at University of Queensland in Brisbane, Queensland from January 30 – February 1, 2024, and receiving your proposals. The phrase ‘living your best life,’ seems designed especially for the Oceania region. With the sand, sun, forests, mountains, seas, and rich cultural heritage and traditions around us, it is easy to be inspired by the beauty in which we are surrounded. In this Call for Proposals, we want you to reflect a different kind of inspiration – that of your own teaching experience. Our Call for Proposals is a simple one: we want you to be ‘living your best teaching experience’, and we want you to engender your enthusiasm with others. Our only emphasis is for sessions which are interactive and / or experiential. Show us your best stuff! Transfer the excitement, engagement, and energy of your (physical or virtual or hybrid) classroom practice to a group of like-minded management educators, eager and willing to adapt key innovations and learnings to their own classroom experience. You might think about how you have engaged students in their learning, what you are taking forward out of the pandemic shift to virtual learning, or how you bring new pedagogies and practices to life in your classroom. |
