PDW organizers: Mark P. Sharfman (<st1:placetype w:st="on">U.</st1:placetype> of <st1:placename w:st="on">Oklahoma</st1:placename>), Andreas Georg Scherer (U. <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Zurich</st1:city></st1:place>)
This PDW is aimed at bringing together SIM and non-SIM scholars to aid colleagues in their efforts to publish in top journals outside those often considered to be specialty or niche journals in ethics and corporate social responsibility. In particular, we have assembled a team of scholars who have been successful publishing SIM or related work in the very best general management journals like AMJ, AMR, ASQ, JAP, OBHDP, and OS, SMJ. We will pair these experienced scholars with SIM members interested in exploring how specific manuscripts might be developed to meet the publication standards of the top management journals.
Applicants to the workshop must submit a paper or a highly detailed outline/proposal to the organizers in advance. These papers will then be evaluated by the organizers as to their potential (loosely defined) for publication in the top management journals. Once an applicant is accepted, we will assign them to two mentors. Each mentor will receive (ahead of time) a proposal or working paper from two participants, and have comments ready on them in the session. In the two hour work session, participants and panelists will focus on the papers and ideas, and work to develop them to their fullest. Toward the end of the session, each table pair of participants will then caucus for about 15 minutes to compile a brief list of "takeaways", to be reported back to the group at large. These final reports will wrap up the session.
Papers/proposals are due by June 1 and participants will be advised as to whether they have been accepted by July 1. Upon acceptance, applicants will be advised of who their mentors will be. Please submit papers to Mark Sharfman at msharfman@ou.edu with a copy to Andreas Scherer at andreas.scherer@iou.uzh.ch. Please use the phrase "SIM Manuscript Workshop Submission" as the subject of your e-mail. On the title page for your paper/proposal please designate up to 6 keywords to help classify your paper and facilitate its assignment to a pair of mentors. Also, please review the list of mentors and if you have a preference as to whom you wish your paper/proposal assigned, please indicate that preference in your e-mail.
If you can not submit electronically, please send a disk copy to:
