At BAM, we are dedicated to promoting wellbeing and positive mental health in business and management academics and doctoral researchers. Ensuring that you can have an enjoyable experience at the BAM2026 Conference is one of our key goals, and we, along with Royal Holloway, University of London, have arranged a number of activities for you to make some time for you.

The BAM Wellbeing Tree

The BAM Wellbeing Tree is an interactive installation that enables you to share your experiences of work related wellbeing, to capture effective steps that you, your manager or your institution have taken to improve wellbeing and positive mental health and/or to give suggestions as to how your wellbeing could be better supported 

Use our Mindapples installation to share your thoughts: 

  • Suggest initiatives you, your manager, institutions or policy makers might take to promote all forms of wellbeing at work. 

  • Tell us what we at BAM could be doing to encourage leaders and policy makers to move the dial on work related wellbeing and positive mental health. 

  • What will you personally do differently to improve yours and others’ wellbeing? 

  • Read what other people say by browsing the apples hung on the tree. 

Members of the BAM Executive will be at the tree during lunchtime breaks so you can also talk to us directly! 


Chill Zones

We have dedicated specific areas of the Campus as Chill Zones, for delegates to unwind and take their time to chill in their own company.

Please feel free to use these areas at your own leisure and at any time during the Conference.


Escape The Room (Self-Guided Campus Walk)


Take some time out from the Lecture Theatres and go for a scenic 2.2 km walk around Royal Holloway’s campus. Taking approximately 30 minutes, the walk offers an opportunity to explore more of the campus, enjoy its green surroundings, and connect with fellow delegates in an informal setting.
