    Saturday, Aug 8 2009 11:40AM - 2:10PM

    at Hyatt Regency Chicago in Columbus KL

     

    Academy of Management Professional Development Workshop

     

    Coopetition Strategy:

    Current Issues and Future Research Directions

     

    Sponsoring Divisions

    BPS: Business Policy and Strategy

    OMT: Organization and Management Theory

    TIM: Technology and Innovation Management

    ENT: Entrepreneurship

     

    The concept of coopetition proposes a new approach in which competitive and cooperative standpoints are viewed as integrally connected to each other. Conceptual and empirical research has addressed coopetition as well as its drivers and consequences in different contexts and across multiple levels of analysis. Yet, limited efforts have been advanced to bring together the diverse research perspectives in a systematic way. The goal of this professional development workshop is twofold: (1) to discuss various emergent conceptual perspectives that can explain coopetition by bringing together scholars from a wide variety of institutions and topical areas and stimulate interaction among the scholars; and (2) outline an agenda for future research in both conceptual and empirical terms. The panel consists of well-known scholars who have conducted research on the topic. Participants of the workshop will gain an understanding of a variety of theoretical perspectives and stances applied to study coopetition and learn about conceptual and empirical issues involved in conducting research on coopetition. Participants will also contribute to the general discussion by taking part in interactive roundtable discussions on relevant coopetition issues.

     

    Organizers:

    Giovanni Battista Dagnino, University of Catania

    Devi R. Gnyawali, Virginia Tech

    PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP

    Manuscript Development

    2009 Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management

    Chicago, IL

    Sunday, August 08, 2009

    9:40AM - 11:40AM

    Fairmont Chicago, State Room

     

    PDW organizer: Donald Siegel (University at Albany, SUNY) 

    This PDW is aimed at bringing together SIM & ONE and non-SIM/non-ONE scholars to aid colleagues in their efforts to publish in top journals outside those often considered to be specialty journals in ethics and corporate social responsibility. In particular, we have assembled a team of scholars who have been successful publishing SIM & ONE or related work in the very best general management journals like AMJ, AMR, ASQ, JMS, Org Sci, Org Stud, and SMJ. We will pair these experienced scholars with SIM&ONE members interested in exploring how specific manuscripts might be developed to meet the publication standards of the top management journals. Applicants to the workshop will submit a paper to the organizers. These papers will then be evaluated by the organizers as to whether they have any potential (loosely defined) for publication in the top management journals. Once an applicant is accepted, we will assign them to two mentors. Each mentor will receive (ahead of time) a proposal or outline or working paper from two participants, and have comments ready for them in the session. In the 2 hour work session, participants and panelists could really dig into the papers and ideas, and work to develop them to their fullest. Toward the end of the session, each table pair of participants would then caucus for about 15 minutes to compile a brief list of "takeaways", to be reported back to the group at large. These final reports would wrap up the session. We envision a session limited to about 20-25 paper manuscripts, depending on the number of expert mentors available. This workshop requires a pre-registration application and submission of working paper by June 15, 2009 (send your paper by email to Donald Siegel at Donaldsieg@gmail.com with the subject "SIM/ONE Manuscript Workshop Submission"). The applications will be screened by the workshop organizer and participants will be advised as to whether they have been accepted by July 8, 2009.

    Pre-registration required by June 15, 2009 (email to Donaldsieg@gmail.com). Applications will be screened and acceptances sent by July 8, 2009.

    Dear USASBE Colleagues,

     

    We are very excited to announce the launch of the new USASBE website.

    Please check it out at http://usasbe.org.  I think you will find it is a high energy site with a lot of value-creating elements for our membership.

    The new site includes  videos, links to our Interest Groups, our updated Syllabus Exchange, an updated Career Center, the addition of helpful websites for entrepreneurship educators, a new calendar, links to our conference proceedings, access to ETP and JSBM (which soon will include online access to articles), and much more.

     

    We are also planning the best ever USASBE Conference for next January in Nashville.  In addition to some innovative pre-conference sessions, we have some very special keynoters lined up, and are taking the four pillar sessions that were such a hit this past year to new levels.  The USASBE Doctoral Consortium continues to grow, and we plan to highlight the best practices that come out of the USASBE Education Excellence Awards, including some best practices at international schools. And, of course, the outstanding papers, workshops and cases will be recognized, with some of the papers becoming candidates for publication in our partner journals. For the first time ever, we will have a "Developmental Papers" track for interesting research that is in earlier stages of development. We'll also have a live Career Center, the USASBE Internet Café, and another Party of Excellence.

     

    The submission website will open in just two weeks, so I hope you are preparing great papers, workshop proposals, and cases for submission.

     

    All the best,

     

    Mike

    Dear Technology And Innovation Management List Server

     

    We are pleased to request a distribution of the attached call for papers for the Society of Entrepreneurship Scholars (SES). The deadline for submission is August 4th, and the 2009 SES edition will be held at the John Hopkins University just before the Strategic Management Society (SMS) conference.

     

    The  Society of Entrepreneurship Scholars (SES) is in its fourth edition and has seen a growing interest and participation over the years with the continuous support of the Kauffman Foundation.

     

    The sole purpose of this two-day Manuscript Boot-camp 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. These scholars will then work with you during two four-hour working sessions, both individually and in small groups, on measures you can take to improve the manuscript and enhance its prospects for publication in a top tier journal.

     

    Fourth Annual Society for Entrepreneurship Scholars (SES)

    Conference & Manuscript Boot-camp

    October 8th -9th, 2009

    Lead Sponsoring University: The Ohio State University, Fisher College of Business

    Sponsoring University: Johns Hopkins University

    Sponsoring Foundation: Kauffman Foundation

    Call for Papers – deadline August 4th 2009

    The Society of Entrepreneurship Scholars (SES) invites you to submit your best work- work you believe merits publication in a top tier journal – to the fourth Annual SES Conference and Manuscript Boot-camp. The sole purpose of this two-day 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. These scholars will then work with you during two four-hour working sessions, both individually and in small groups, on measures you can take to improve the manuscript and enhance its prospects for publication in a top tier journal.

    The second day of the conference will be spent in plenary and working groups on topics that are fundamental to mission of the SES.

    Some previous scholar mentors for the conference include, among others:

    ·         Howard Aldrich;

    ·         Joe Mahoney;

    ·         Jay Barney;

    ·         Mike Hitt;

    ·         Michael Lubatkin.

     

    Some previous participants from different universities, among others:

    ·         Duke University

    ·         Harvard University

    ·         Purdue University

    ·         The Ohio State University

    ·         University of Utah

     

    Twenty-four (24) papers will be accepted for the conference. The sole criterion for acceptance is the paper's perceived potential for publication in top tier journals. Submitted papers must not be published or currently under review at a journal, but 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 senior faculty who are interested in publishing about entrepreneurship, as well as from junior faculty and doctoral students.

    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.

    The 2009 Conference and Manuscript Boot-camp will be held on Thursday and Friday, October 8-9 at The Johns Hopkins University. The conference chair for the 2004 conference is Sharon Alvarez, Ohio State University. The conference co-chairs are David Deeds and Bill Schulze, case Western Reserve University. The event coordinator is Samuel Mathey.

     

    Questions can be directed to Sharon Alvarez at alvarez_42@fisher.osu.edu or Samuel Mathey at

    mathey-apossan_1@fisher.osu.edu 

     

    Submissions should be sent as an attachment to mathey-apossan_1@fisher.osu.edu no later than August 8th. The submitting author should be identified on the title page.

    The mission of SES is to enhance the quality of scholarship in the field of entrepreneurship. Its operational goal is to increase the flow of manuscripts about entrepreneurship that are submitted to and published in the top tier journals. The society sponsors an annual conference and manuscript boot-camp, as well as other activities aimed at increasing scholarly discourse about entrepreneurship. Our metric for success is the number and quality of papers about entrepreneurial topics membership. The society is not affiliated with any journal, other scholarly organization, or academic institution.

    Manuscript Submission:                                                                 August 4, 2009

    Acceptance Notification:                                                                 August 22, 2009

    Final Manuscript Due:                                                                    September 22, 2009

    Boot-camp date:                                                                               October 8-9, 2009

     

    Sample review guidelines for SES 2009 Paper evaluation:

    The sole criteria for acceptance is the paper's potential for publication in a top tier journal. That is to say, papers should be evaluated on their promise and not the quality of the current manuscript. Problems with stated theory or flaws in methodology or data should be viewed as problems that can be solved, and not as a basis for rejection. Sample review guidelines are below:

    ·                           Does the paper address an interesting question?

    ·                           To what extent does it inform discussion of issues that are relevant across multiple social science disciplines?

    ·                           What is the paper's potential impact on the field of entrepreneurship?

    ·                           Can the conference add value to this paper?

    ·                           Are there fatal (or non correctable) flaws with the quality of the data, sample, and research design?

    ·                           Does the paper show editorial capability or promise?

    ·                           If you were serving as a senior scholar, how willing would you be to champion this paper?

    Israel Strategy Conference 2009 - Doctoral Consortium

     

    The Israel Strategy Conference (ISC) will be holding a Doctoral Consortium at the ISC2009 meetings. The consortium will be held at Ben-Gurion University on Sunday, December 27 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

     

    As the world of research tends to be about communicating with a community of scholars with overlapping interests, doctoral consortia generally are most valuable in providing an intimate setting for a cohort of doctoral students to get to know each other and to meet senior scholars in the field.  The ISC Doctoral Consortium will be most valuable to Ph.D. students interested in conducting cutting-edge research in strategy and related areas. The consortium will be led by an international panel of senior faculty members with proven research records who will discuss promising areas for research and insights into the publication process.

     

    The consortium coordinators are Gary Dushnitsky (Wharton) and David Brock (Ben-Gurion University). Additional faculty include: Jay Barney (Ohio State), Avi Feingenbaum (Technion), Michael Hitt (Texas A&M), Sarah Kaplan (Wharton), Anita McGahan (Toronto), Brian Silverman (Toronto), and several others TBA.

     

    The Consortium will be comprised of three components.

     

    o        "Current and future themes in Strategy" – panelists will present their views of emerging "hot" topics in the general management field, and students will be invited to suggest ideas and jointly speculate how they may play in the wider audience of strategy research.

    o        "Getting published in top journals" -- a panel discussions aimed at conveying to students some proven techniques of (1) framing research questions, (2) research design, (3) packaging, (4) dealing with editors and reviewers.

    o        "Thesis Development workshop" – a select group of doctoral students will have an opportunity to present their research and receive guidance and commentary from senior faculty. Selection for this workshop is highly competitive. Students admitted to this program will receive a 50% discount on the ISC registration fee (the doctoral consortium will be offered at no charge to all attending students). 

     

    Application and admission

     

    Admission preference will be given to students whose research is at the dissertation proposal stage. Doctoral students who do not wish to present their research at the thesis development workshop are still invited to apply and attend the doctoral consortium. Only those students wishing to present their research will be required to submit an abstract and a nomination letter. The dissertation ideas should be sufficiently developed to allow for a clear presentation of the theory and research design, but leave significant room for revision based on comments received at the consortium. A nomination letter by a faculty member relating to the state of the applicant's dissertation research is required as part of the application process.

     

    To apply, please visit the doctoral consortium page of the ISC website at www.isc.org.il, complete the application form and upload the following documents:

    ·                           An updated Curriculum Vita.

    ·                           A brief abstract of your dissertation research. The abstract should be no longer than two pages of text and one page of references (adhering to the ISC proposal submission guidelines).

    ·                           A nomination letter from a supervising faculty member attesting that the student is in good standing and referring to the progress of the applicant's dissertation research.

     

    The application deadline is Wednesday, July 15, 2009. Acceptance notification will be sent in early August.

     

    Students attending the doctoral consortium must register to the Israel Strategy Conference (ISC). Student discount rates apply. An additional 50% discount will be offered to students presenting their research at the Thesis Development workshop.

     

    If you have questions regarding the doctoral consortium, please contact Gary Dushnitsky at gdushnit@wharton.upenn.edu or David Brock dmb@bgu.ac.il.

     

     

    We look forward to seeing you at the 2009 ISC!

    We would like to announce the upcoming Summer International Internet Conference coming up July 20 through July 31, 2009. The deadline for submissions and registration is July 6. The early registration fee is $250 and registrations submitted after July 6 will be $300. Full papers can be submitted to the conference for award consideration and an accelerated journal review process. All submissions are double blind refereed and the top 25% are selected for journal publication and receive research awards.

     

    If you have not participated in one of our Internet Conferences before, they work just like the Internet Division at each of our regular conferences. The conference Proceedings is published to the website and a message board is available for those who wish to exchange feedback on different papers. We also encourage participants to submit their Power Point presentations, and, if they have the capability, post video presentations for us to post links to.

     

    The Internet Conference affords those who can not afford to travel, or are too busy to travel, the ability to participate and receive the same benefits regular conference attendees receive (such as the accelerated journal review process). There is not a set schedule since we will have participants from all around the world and in different time zones. You can find submission instructions and the necessary conference submission forms on our website.

This conference will also have an Internet Division for those of you who are unable to attend in person. More information is also available on our Conferences page.

     

    If you have any questions, please let us know. We encourage you to tell your colleagues about us. We have some printable conference calls available on our Conferences page as well. We look forward to your participation.
