Competitive Strategy Junior Faculty and Paper Development Workshop

The Competitive Strategy Interest Group (IG) is pleased to offer a research focused junior faculty and paper development workshop at the 2013 Strategic Management Society meetings in Atlanta, Georgia. Although all members of the Competitive Strategy IG are invited to participate, preference will be given to junior faculty who defended their dissertations after September 2008.

This workshop will be from 9:15am - 3:45pm and include panel discussions and breakout sessions. Senior faculty panels will discuss critical aspects of the research and publication process, ways to craft a successful research program, future directions in competitive strategy research, and other questions of concern for junior faculty. A breakout session will provide opportunities for participants to discuss and receive feedback on their work in an informal setting.

Submission Guidelines:

Please upload one six-page document file which has two parts:

1) cover page with a brief statement of committing to attend the workshop if accepted, permission to distribute submitted works to session participants, and a commitment to prepare a one-page review of other papers in your assigned breakout session, and

2) five-page abstract of the paper that you plan to receive feedback on during the workshop. Please use your First.Last name when you are naming the file to be uploaded.

Please note that space will be limited in order to ensure a high level of interaction among all participants. In order to participate, individuals should upload their application by August 25, 2013

Accepted applicants will be notified by September 2, 2013. The workshop organizers will group papers that are similar in topic and/or methodology and distribute them to conference participants. Prior to the workshop, participants in each group will prepare written comments and feedback on the other papers in their group. They will exchange feedback during the paper development portion of the workshop, with each group's discussion being facilitated by one or more senior scholar(s) familiar with the topic and/or method in question.
