    2011 TIM Division Call for Reviewers of Scholarly Papers and Symposia

     

    Program Chair: Arvids A. Ziedonis (tim2011@uoregon.edu)

     

    The Technology and Innovation Management (TIM) Division is calling for reviewers for its 2011 Annual Meeting Program, August 12 - 16, in San Antonio, Texas, U.S.A.

    The TIM Division encourages interdisciplinary scholarship and dialogue on the management of innovation and technological change from a variety of perspectives, including strategic, managerial, behavioral, and operational issues. The problem domain includes the management of innovation, technology strategy, research and development, information technologies and the Internet, technology-based entrepreneurship and process technologies. Participants in this broad academic endeavor come from a wide range of disciplines and draw on an extensive array of theoretical and research paradigms.

     

    We enter this complex problem domain in the spirit of dialogue, debate, and deepened understanding. Major topics include: studies of innovation processes; innovation diffusion and the development, implementation and use of new technologies; technology development trajectories; entry timing advantages; intellectual capital; competing in platform-mediated markets; organizational processes by which technically-oriented activities are integrated into organizations; product development strategies; technical project management; behaviors and characteristics of technical professionals; technological forecasting and policies; impact of information technologies and the internet; relationship between new technologies and organizational forms, and the commercialization of university research.

     

    If you are interested in being a part of the review process for TIM Division submissions, please sign up as a volunteer reviewer.  Please note that even if you have reviewed in the past, you still need to sign up again for the 2011 Annual Meeting.  Go to http://review.aomonline.org to register as a reviewer.

     

    You can sign up to review for up to three divisions and/or interest groups (including TIM). You may be asked to review up to three (3) submissions (papers and symposia) per division or interest group that is selected. So the maximum number of review assignments that you could potentially receive from the divisions and interest groups that you select is nine (9).

    The review period for the 2011 Annual Meeting is from January 11, 2011 (Submission Deadline) to February 10, 2011 (Review Deadline). However, you might be asked to review early submissions that come in before the submission deadline. Please check your work schedule to make sure that you will be able to review during this period.

    Thank you in advance for your participation and interest in being a referee for the TIM Division. Serving as a referee will add more visibility to you and your institution, influence the direction of scholarly research in technology and innovation management, and give you an opportunity to be more involved in the TIM Division's program at the Annual Meeting.  The success of the TIM Division program would not be possible without the commitment and hard work of all the dedicated referees.

    Submission Instructions:  The TIM division welcomes empirical or conceptual papers and symposia on topics dealing with any aspect of the management of technology or organizational innovation. Papers or symposia that relate to the domains of other divisions are encouraged; they may become candidates for cross-divisional sessions. Please to go to the Academy of Management 2011 Annual Meeting website, http://annualmeeting.aomonline.org/2011/, for detailed instructions and to submit your scholarly paper or symposia proposal.

     

    Deadline for all submissions is 5:00 p.m. January 11, 2011 (New York Time).

     

    Division Awards: TIM offers two competitive awards as part of the Academy submission process: The TIM Best Student Paper Award, and the TIM Division Best Paper Award. To be eligible for the best student paper award, the student must be senior author or sole author and this should be clearly indicated on the title page of the paper.  Papers considered for the Best Student Paper Award can also be considered for the TIM Division Best Paper Award.  In addition to these two awards, we offer several Best Reviewer Awards to a number of reviewers whose reviews are particularly deep, complete and insightful.
