Do you want to write essays for the AMLE, OrgStudies and JMS?
Join our PDW at the AOM 2023 - Writing Essays to Advance Management Scholarship
Newbury Room, Park Plaza - Friday August 04, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Essays intertwine personal narratives and experiences and incisive arguments and opinions, distinctly from traditional theory or empirical pieces.
- First we want to briefly showcase the emerging significance of the essay as a genre of management scholarship, sharing the example of new essay categories in various outlets including the Journal of Management Studies, Organization Studies, Academy of Management Learning Education and other.
- Second, through the insights of scholars who have successfully written essays, we explore the ways in which this format can lead to useful contributions. We will explore how essays can be developed and how we can continue to strengthen their legitimacy as a scholarly contribution.
- In the third part of the workshop, senior scholars that have edited or are editing for those three outlets (Journal of Management Studies, Organization Studies, Academy of Management Learning Education) will work with participants to help them learn about the objectives, conventions and potential of essay writing as a distinct form of academic output, on the basis of submitted pieces.
Do you want to get feedback on an essay idea? During the last hour of our PDW, you can get feedback on an essay idea you want to develop.
Please send a 300 words proposal with the targeted journal for your essay (AMLE, OrgStudies, or JMS), by email to t.roulet@jbs.cam.ac.uk with the title "PDW Essays AOM 2023" before July 15th, 2023, end of the day.
