Overview
JMS will be hosting an information session on our upcoming special issue of the Journal of Management Studies "How Methods Can Advance Theory in Management Research" (Proposal submission deadline: 30 April 2026).
The session will be held via Microsoft Teams and registration is required.
This special issue seeks research on the method-theory relationship that produces theoretical development and improvement. Research spanning qualitative, quantitative, and critical management studies, as well as the micro, macro, and meso traditions of management scholarship, is welcome. Papers focusing purely on methods and methodological innovation, without an explicit link to theorizing, are not well-suited to this special issue. Instead, we seek papers that explicitly address methods and their value for theorizing in the service of advancing the management field.
