Dear IBERO Colleagues,

FYI, see below.
All the best,

Dear Herman,

I remembered you because I think this call for papers can be interesting for you, your colleagues or your students. The BP Global Representatives organizes this workshop to promote international research.

The goal is to attract new AOM participants or researchers starting on the road of academic publication.

I hope you share this with your networks and hope to see at the AoM, the first part of the panel is open and with very good speakers.

CALL FOR MANUSCRIPTS

Fostering Publication from Around the World in Leading Organization and Strategy Journals

BPS Global Representatives' PDW - Academy of Management, Anaheim, USA

Submission Deadline: April 17th, 2016          

Description:

Around the world we find researchers engaged in exciting, innovative, and relevant research projects. Unfortunately, many of these geographically diverse researchers face significant obstacles that prevent them from publishing in leading, high-impact journals and reaching a broad audience for their research.

This PDW is targeted to scholars from under-represented countries who seek successful publication of their research in top journals. The PDW has a very practical, hands-on orientation. Prior to the workshop, each participant will be asked to send his/her best non-published manuscript to the organizers, who will then forward the piece to a group of facilitators who are all scholars with successful publication experience. During the event, a panel of editors will share insights that they have gained through handling manuscripts originating in different countries and discuss such issues as the way to frame research projects for publication, the distinct requirements of different outlets, how to overcome language difficulties, etc. There will also be a 'global scholars panel' in which scholars from other parts of the world share their successes and challenges, and provide their own experiences with the review process.  In the final session, registered participants will receive feedback from facilitators on their individual manuscripts along with suggestions on how they can reach successful publication. Throughout the PDW, ongoing dialogue will address different types of articles (quantitative, qualitative, purely theoretical, etc.) and take into consideration the research traditions of scholars from different parts of the world.

Editors' Panel:

Dovev Lavie, Associate Editor  AMJ, Technion Israel Institute of Technology

Samina Karim, Associate Editor SMJ, Northeastern University

Gerald McDermott, Editorial Board JIBS & SBE, Moore School of Business

Global Scholars' Panel:

Roberto Vassolo, IAE Business School, Argentina

Ralf Wilden, Newcastle Business School Sydney, Australia

Haibin Yang, City University of Hong Kong, China

Moses Acquaah, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, US

In order to encourage participation from under-represented segments of the academic community, the BPS Division will offer need-based financial support up to eight (8) candidates who are first or second time attendees to AoM. The financial support will include travel grants between US $200 and US $300 (depending on candidate's country) and up to 5 free conference registration vouchers (vouchers for first time attendees to the conference only). To use the voucher, it is very important that the attendee NOT register for the conference; BPS will register selected candidates directly. Financial support will be offered on the basis of: (a) quality and promise of the manuscripts, and (b) demonstrated need. Both to be determined solely at the discretion of the BPS Division. Scholars who are admitted to the PDW are also encouraged to seek additional "matching" funding from other sources. The PDW organizers will be happy to arrange recommendation letters, should they be needed to secure these additional funds.

Interested candidates are requested to send (a) a current CV and (b) a completed and edited manuscript that they plan to submit to a peer-reviewed, research journal. Please email these documents to Prof Hernan Etiennot (hetiennot@iae.edu.ar) by April 17, 2016. Scholars admitted to the PDW will be notified by beginning of May.
