    Are you a doctoral student or a junior faculty member who is interested in learning the craft of reviewing or improving your reviewing skills? If so, the MOC Division is sponsoring "Reviewing in the Rough: A PDW for Doctoral Students and Junior Faculty Members" at this year's Academy of Management Annual Meeting in Vancouver. It will be held on Friday, August 7, 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM. More information on the session is available on the MOC division website: http://moc.aom.org/index.php/reviewing-in-the-rough

    Reviewing is a critical "professional responsibility" and an integral part of participating in the academic community (Trevino, 2008). Yet Tsang and Frey (2007: 129) noted that "there is no formal training for referees who usually pick up their review skills through learning by doing."  This raises a perplexing question for doctoral students and junior faculty: how can they develop critical reviewing skills when there are so few opportunities for them to practice the art of reviewing? This PDW provides participants with a rare opportunity to learn and practice the art of reviewing. Prior to the conference, participants will be asked to prepare a formal review of an original submission of Dave Mayer's manuscript "Encouraging Employees to Report Unethical Conduct Internally: It takes a Village" (Mayer, Nurmohamed, Treviño, Shapiro, & Schminke, 2013). The actual workshop will consist of two parts: (1) a panel and (2) interactive roundtables. The panel will provide participants an opportunity to gain key insights about the review process and quality reviewing from scholars who have served as an Associate Editor and Editorial Board Member at the leading journals in our field. In the interactive roundtables, Dave Mayer will provide background information about the original submission of his manuscript and then participants will break into small groups, facilitated by an experienced faculty member, to discuss and receive feedback on their formal reviews. Dave will then discuss the actual reviews of his original submission and how they helped shape the final manuscript. The PDW will conclude with a question and answer period with Dave.
