Since publishing in "top-tier" journals remains critical for scholars, our focus in this PDW is on publishing careers and human resources oriented research in top management journals. Accordingly, we will be discussing ways that major career theories and conversations can be linked to key management theories and to organizational/societal outcomes, and how particular research techniques in the careers field can be utilized to highlight particular research questions. The format consists of two parts. In Part One, which will last approximately 75-80 minutes, a panel discussion with audience participation will focus on four major topics - Framing Careers Research for Top Management Journals; Designing and Conducting Careers Research for Top Journals; Choosing the Right Journal; and Tricks of the Trade and Insider Secrets. Part Two, which will be more interactive, will last approximately 40-45 minutes.  Each of the careers scholars will lead a smaller roundtable discussion. This is an updated version of this PDW, which was first offered at the 2011 AOM meeting and attracted large audiences at the 2012 and 2013 meetings. From this session, participants will take away valuable advice for publishing careers-oriented research in top-tier management journals

Sincerely,

Lois
