The Journal of Management Studies (JMS) and the Society for Advancement of Management Studies (SAMS) are strongly committed to help develop even greater management scholarship in China and throughout Asia.
Consistent with this goal, we will be offering two workshops in China in 2015 to develop papers for submission to major international journals. Submission of manuscripts for presentation at either the Beijing or Changchun workshop is recommended to Chinese scholars, however, papers progressed through these workshops are NOT required to be submitted to JMS. In fact, presentation of a manuscript in either workshop is not a guarantee or promise to be considered or accepted for publication in JMS. We are interested in helping Chinese scholars push their research to a stage where they could be published in any major international journal. The paper's author team must include at least one resident in China as we seek to contribute to building domestic research capacity in China.
The workshops are:
June 11 – Beijing – Renmin University
June 25 – Changchun – Jilin University
Only the 12 most promising papers will be accepted for each workshop.
Participation in these workshops consists of not only submitting a manuscript and expecting discussions and suggestions on ways to improve it, but participants must also be willing to read several other participants' manuscripts, discuss them and provide feedback on ways to improve them as well.
JMS editors and reviewers among other international scholars will attend each workshop to comment on the papers and help improve them for ultimate submission to a journal.
If interested in participating, please submit your paper for consideration of inclusion in the workshop by May 6 to Garry Bruton (g.bruton@tcu.edu) with a cc to Lisa O'Brien (l.obrien@tcu.edu). After that date I will be in touch if you have been accepted for the workshop with the papers you are to discuss.
If any questions please contact me (g.bruton@tcu.edu).
