Academy of Management Review (AMR) Idea Development Workshop
Hosted by the Management & Entrepreneurship Department
Haslam College of Business, University of Tennessee – Knoxville
Where and When
Friday, April 21, 2023 from 9:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. at the Haslam College of Business, with a reception and dinner for all participants
Led by:
- Sherry Thatcher, Editor-in-Chief
- Other Associate Editors and Editorial Review Board members
Purpose and Agenda
This idea development workshop (IDW) is geared toward early career researchers (e.g., Assistant Professors and Postdoctoral fellows) and PhD students who are interested in publishing in AMR. AMR is the highest-ranked journal publishing conceptual and theoretical manuscripts. Although this IDW is open to anyone, preference will be shown to individuals from institutions based in the United States. This workshop is designed to help participants develop great ideas that will be the foundation for well-crafted manuscripts suitable for submission to AMR.
The workshop will consist of two parts. We will first discuss general information about publishing in AMR, such as what makes a successful AMR paper, the main reasons that papers are rejected, and strategies for addressing the core challenges that Editors and reviewers see in rejected papers.
The second half of the workshop will entail roundtable discussions of theory ideas from the participants. We will match 4-5 participants with an Associate Editor or an Editorial Review Board member. These groups will discuss the participant ideas and provide the participant with insight into how to clarify the paper idea or move the idea forward. Participation in this part of the workshop is limited to 40 participants.
