Junior Faculty Paper Development Workshop
Strategic Management (STR) Division
Saturday, August 11th, 2018
8.00 am – 10.30am, Swissôtel Chicago, Zurich A
Do you have a great paper that seems to be going nowhere? A paper that has been rejected from a journal or two, and you're not sure whether, and how, to proceed? Or a paper that has received contradictory reviews to which you're struggling to respond? Do you have a great empirical result but aren't sure if the theoretical contribution is sufficient for an A-level publication, or what other journals you should be considering? Do you feel your paper could really use some guidance from senior, more experienced faculty?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, this PDW is for you!
Now in its sixth year, the Junior Faculty Paper Development Workshop offers junior scholars a unique opportunity to receive developmental feedback on their current research projects from some of the best scholars in strategy. Specifically, it enables junior faculty who are struggling with papers in an advanced stage to engage in an in-depth discussion with very experienced researchers who will read their work and offer guidance on how, and whether, to proceed.
Organizers:
Paolo Aversa (City U. London); Craig Crossland (U. of Notre Dame); Giada Di Stefano (HEC Paris); Aleksandra 'Olenka' Kacperczyk (London Business School).
Senior Panelists include:
Gautam Ahuja; Pamela Barr; Stefano Brusoni; Gino Cattani; Raffaele Conti; Rodolphe Durand; Igor Filatotchev; Vibha Gaba; Maria Goranova; Scott Graffin; Rahul Kapoor; Andrew King; Andreas Koenig; Dovev Lavie; Catherine Maritan; Gerry McNamara; Vilmos Misangyi; Christopher Tucci; Giovanni Valentini; Margarethe Wiersema; Todd Zenger.
Time and location: Saturday, August 11th, 2018; 8.00 am – 10.30am, Swissôtel Chicago, Room: Zurich A.

The PDW is open to untenured faculty members only (e.g., post-docs, assistant professors, lecturers). PhD students are not accepted and are discouraged from applying to this PDW.

Submission of these materials is a pre-requisite for participating in the PDW. For the PDW you might also be expected to provide feedback to one fellow junior colleague, which is assigned to your discussion session.
