...that leadership paper to submit to EURAM 2017 in Glasgow, Scotland (June 21-24)!

Brand new for the European Academy of Management Conference (EURAM) this year is our leadership track nested within the Organisational Behaviour Strategic Interest Group (SIG). Specifically dedicated to leadership papers, we welcome theoretical and empirical papers that apply rigorous quantitative and/or qualitative methods.

The following list of topics offers illustrative (but not exhaustive) examples of themes welcomed for submission to this track:

- contextual factors influencing leadership effectiveness, 

- cross-cultural comparisons of leadership approaches and outcomes, 

- the dark side of leadership (e.g., destructive leadership, toxic leadership, abusive or narcissistic leadership),

- interdisciplinary approaches to leadership (e.g., integrating theories/literatures from evolutionary psychology or behavioral economics),

- leadership in contemporary team contexts (e.g., virtual teams, diverse teams, temporary teams, or self-managing teams),

- leadership interventions and randomized experiments,

- leadership's impact on the health or well-being of the followers, teams, or organizational outcomes,

- meta-analytical reviews of existing leadership theories and their impacts on outcomes at different organizational levels,

- organizational or situational factors influencing leader and/or follower behaviors,

- processes leading to effective leadership, and

- theoretical or empirical investigations of responsible and ethical aspects of leadership.

This leadership topic proposal is purposefully broad under the general theme of leadership to appeal to multiple paradigms and approaches spanning numerous EURAM SIGs including (but not limited to) Human Resources, Gender, Race, and Diversity in Organisations, Social Issues, Business & Society, and Research Methods. However, given our primary affiliation with the Organisational Behaviour SIG, we especially encourage micro- and multi-level empirical work.    

Papers are due by January 10, 2017 (2PM Belgium time). They should be a maximum of 40 pages (for more info, see "Author's Guidelines" here).

We look forward to receiving and reviewing your leadership papers, and hope to see you in Glasgow!
