Objective of Workshop
The goal of this PDW session is to advance the careers of junior
faculty -especially those in under-represented groups - by helping
them publish diversity research in top-tier academic journals. This
session will offer participants a chance to have their work reviewed
by some of the leading scholars in our field including current and past
editors of several major journals in our field, such as AMJ, ASQ,
Group and Organization Management, OBHDP and Organization Science.
Deadline for registration and submission of manuscripts is June 30th,
2008. Please contact Raymond Trau at
raymond.trau@college.monash.edu.au for registration and questions
about manuscript submission.
Manuscript Submission Process
Manuscripts will be selected based on the following criteria: (1) they
are within the content domain of GDO, (2) they are not currently under
journal review, and (3) they are in near-final form for submission to
a refereed journal. Although authors may submit more than one
manuscript, only one per author will be selected for review. Authors
will also provide a focus for the review process by describing a
particular dilemma, question, or concern s/he would like the reviewers
to discuss, as well as the name of the targeted journal. Due to the
intense nature of the review process, a limited number of manuscripts
will be selected for review.
This session is aimed primarily at junior faculty, but doctoral
students are encouraged to attend this session in order to learn about
the review process. Individuals may register and attend this session
without having a manuscript under review in order to gain insights
into the review process. All participants must pre-register for this
session.
Junior faculty who wish to participate in this session must submit
their manuscripts to Raymond Trau (
raymond.trau@college.monash.edu.au)
by June 30th, 2008 in order to provide adequate time for selecting
manuscripts and the review process.
Session Description
Authors, discussants/reviewers and scribes (who write notes and report
back to the large group on key learnings) will be assigned to
different review tables based on either the topic or the targeted
journal. All participants will be asked to read the manuscript(s) that
will be discussed at their table before coming to the session in order
to provide helpful feedback to the authors.
This session will offer an important opportunity to discuss major
principles and practices of publishing diversity research. Authors and
other participants will gain key insights into the publication process
and will be able to network with diversity scholars, review board
members and journal editors.
