Looking for Ph.D. syllabi and reading lists on innovation research

The Center for Innovation Research at <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Tilburg</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">University</st1:placetype></st1:place> is developing a Ph.D.-level course in innovation research. As a starting point, we are looking for existing syllabi and reading lists, or names of researchers (or institutions) who offer such courses. We take a broad definition of innovation, not limited to (but including) technological. We are especially interested in areas of overlap between innovation and research on organizations and strategy. In order to minimize traffic on the listserv, please send materials and suggestions directly to x.martin@uvt.nl. I will summarize results and make them available to those interested.

January 15th Deadline

Call for Proposals

The Practice Theme Committee is of strategic importance to the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placetype w:st="on">Academy</st1:placetype> of <st1:placename w:st="on">Management</st1:placename></st1:place> and spans across all Divisions and Interest Groups of the Academy. It aims to:
•       Develop greater awareness of what practice means and how it can usefully inform our scholarship in terms of both research and teaching.
•       Identify and profile exemplary initiatives that bridge the gap between theory and practice and engage practitioners and academics in the co-creation of knowledge.
•       Create a platform for ongoing engagement with practitioners so that the knowledge we discover is relevant and has impact.

This year's theme "Green Management Matters" encourages us to self-reflectively examine the assumptions behind green management that inform our practices in research and teaching. We invite you to take the challenge that a practice perspective offers to engage with:

1.      What are "Green Practices," why do they matter in organizations, and how do they impact scholarship and society?
2.      How do we enhance "Eco Literacy and Learning" with "Green Curricula," "Environmental Leaders and Managers," "Employee Engagement," and "Green Politics"?
3.      How do we bridge theory and practice to encourage "Environmental Design" and "Environmental Strategies" for "Product Stewardship" and "Sustainable Development"?
4.      How do "Green Practices" encourage "Stakeholder Engagement," build "Environmental Partnerships," shape "Environmental Ethics," and foster "Global Alliances"?
5.      How can we teach, research, and implement "Green Management Scenario Planning" and "Environmental Policy" for effective "Crisis Management" and "Risk Management"?
6.      How can we better understand the role of phronesis in addressing 'mal-practice' and 'mis-management' in advancing greater corporate social responsibility?

We encourage exciting, innovative, and interdisciplinary workshops involving both researchers and practitioners and elucidating the link between green management and practice. Please note that the "Rule of Three" applies for the 2009 PDW program.

If you would like to discuss your ideas prior to submitting, please contact Elena Antonacopoulou (E.Antonacopoulou@liverpool.ac.uk), PTC Chair or
Kuo Frank Yu (KuoYu@Haas.Berkeley.Edu) PTC, PDW Chair.

Special Issue of the Journal of Product Innovation Management

"Creating New Products and Services for and with the Base of the Pyramid"

According to the World Bank, more than half the world's population lives on less than $2 a day.  The greatest concentrations reside in developing countries-termed the "base of the pyramid" (BoP).  Due to low incomes and other challenges, the BoP has largely been ignored by businesses.  However, the market's immense scale and dearth of competitive offerings spell opportunity.  Firms are starting to seize this opportunity by creating new products and services specifically for the BoP.  Examples are Unilever, which developed an affordable disinfectant soap to prevent diarrheal disease in rural <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region>; Nokia, which produced for illiterate Brazilians a cell phone with a speaking clock and iconic address book; and e-Choupal, an IT-based agricultural trading network for farmers to check crop prices directly and obtain fair market value on their harvests.

The aim of this special issue is to present research on and practices of innovating for and with the BoP, or BoP innovation.  BoP innovation is a new frontier of product and service development, requiring businesses to re-consider traditional processes, strategies, finances, partnerships, research methods, organizational learning routines, and business objectives in innovation endeavors.  Knowledge is thus emergent, as firms as diverse as P&G, Haier, and Vodafone rapidly evolve their approaches to create offerings for the very poor.  This special issue covers but is not limited to the following topics:

·                     Best practices of BoP innovation

·                     Success factors for BoP innovation

·                     Critical distinctions and adaptations of BoP, over non-BoP, innovation processes

·                     Co-creation philosophies and practices for BoP innovation

·                     Metrics for successful BoP innovations, e.g. the triple bottom line and mixed qualitative- quantitative measures

·                     Research methods to understand the BoP (e.g. action research, participatory rural appraisal, and BoP protocols) and integrate/apply findings to BoP innovation

·                     Unique conditions and characteristics of BoP markets and customers (e.g. unreliable electricity and low literacy) and ramifications for new product-service design

·                     Knowledge/learning transfers from BoP to non-BoP innovation, such as on scalability, contextualization, sustainability, radical technologies, environmental outcomes

·                     Approaches to strategic alliances and partnerships for BoP innovation, such as between private and public, or between for- and not-for-profit, organizations as well as between businesses and BoP communities

·                     Business, economic, and social transformations through BoP innovation

Papers by researchers and practitioners are encouraged, along with appropriate methods, whether conceptual or empirical, qualitative or quantitative.  If empirical, case studies, ethnographies, surveys, depth interviews, experiments, hybrid methods, and other approaches are all welcomed.  Papers should be no longer than 30 pages, double space, 12 point font, inclusive of references, tables, and figures, and follow the Journal of Product Innovation Management format.

The editor of the special issue is Cheryl Nakata in the Department of Managerial Studies, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placetype w:st="on">University</st1:placetype> of <st1:placename w:st="on">Illinois-Chicago</st1:placename></st1:place>, 601 S. Morgan (MC 243), Chicago, IL 60607.  All submissions should be sent via email to cnakat1@uic.edu by March 31, 2009.

<st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Solitude</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Mountain</st1:placetype></st1:place> Resort

(http://www.skisolitude.com)

Submit papers to SES@Utah.edu

The Society of Entrepreneurship Scholars (SES), with the generous support of the Kauffman Foundation, invites you to submit your best work - work you hope to publish in a top tier journal - to the 2008 SES Manuscript Boot-camp. This year's conference is chaired by Bill Schulze (William.schulze@utah.edu) and Sharon Alvarez (alvarez_42@fisher.osu.edu).

The sole purpose of this conference is to increase the flow of manuscripts about entrepreneurship that are submitted to and published in top tier journals. Papers accepted for the conference will be reviewed in depth by at least two senior scholars who have a history of success publishing in top-tier scholarly journals. These scholars will work with you, both individually and in small groups, focusing upon measures that you can take to improve the manuscript and enhance its prospects for publication in a top tier journal.

This year's conference will be held at the <st1:placename w:st="on">Solitude</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Mountain</st1:placetype> Resort, one of <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Utah</st1:place></st1:state>'s lesser known ski treasures. Solitude was recently rated 3^rd in the nation for "Best Powder" skiing by Skiing Magazine and is located about 40 minutes from the <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Salt Lake City</st1:place></st1:city> airport.

The anticipated scholar-mentors for the 2008 Conference include, among others;
Sharon Alvarez, Ohio State University
Rajshree Argawal, U of Illinois
Julio DeCastro, Babson University
Greg Dess, UT-Dallas
David Deeds, U. St. Thomas
Peter Klein, U of Missouri
Harry Sapienza, U of Minnesota
Other scholar/mentors include Art Brief (Utah), Jeff Dyer (BYU), Bill Hesterly (Utah), Gary Rhoads (BYU), Bill Schulze (Utah)  and Dave Whetten (BYU)

About twenty papers will be accepted for the conference. The sole competitive criterion for acceptance is the paper's perceived potential for publication in top tier journals. Because submitted papers will be judged based upon potential, they may be at any stage of development; i.e., working papers as well as papers that have already been reviewed and rejected by a journal. Papers may be conceptual or empirical.

We encourage submissions from faculty  from other disciplines who are interested in publishing about entrepreneurship, as well as from junior faculty and advanced doctoral students in the field of entrepreneurship.

Since the design of the conference restricts the number of participants, only one author (who should identify themselves as the submitting author) will be invited to participate in the conference. You may submit multiple co-authored papers to the conference, but each submitting author must be unique. If the submitting author is unable to attend the conference, the invitation will be withdrawn. Co-authors may not attend in the submitting author's place. All papers will be blind reviewed.

Please submit your articles no later than November 3rd. You will be notified by November 12t^h.
