Publish or Perish Goes Global are YOU ready?
Publish or Perish has become a global phenomenon as management scholars located outside North America experience increasing pressure from their universities to publish in top-tier management journals. At the same time, top-tier management journals are still dominated by North American research paradigms and standards of scholarship, making it especially difficult for scholars trained outside North America to publish successfully in top-tier management journals.
Come hear a panel of prolific non-U.S. scholars representing a range of countries share practical tips and strategies for successful publication in top-tier North American journals. The doctoral degrees of our 8 panelists were bestowed by universities in 7 different countries: Israel, Belgium, Germany, France, Australia, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. All the panelists have very successfully published in top-tier North American management journals.
Topics to be addressed include: Managing the publication pipeline, Understanding the required logic (organization) for a targeted journal, How to position a paper for a targeted journal, Similarities and differences in journal rankings nationally versus internationally, Copy-editing, Responding to reviewers and managing the editors, and other tips for publication success.
The 2-hour workshop will be divided into 2 broad parts: (1) Panelist presentations, with a Q&A; and (2) Themed group discussions with panelists followed by a report-out to the larger group.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
