Dear Colleagues,

Submission window for Special Research Spotlight:

Guest Editors
- Dusya Vera, Ivey Business School (AMD Associate Editor)
- Hala Annabi, University of Washington

The sample questions in the call for papers cover many disciplines, including leadership, human resources, organizational theory, strategy, information systems, and many others. Please share this call on this important topic with your networks.
Spotlights are a new publishing venue at AMD: mini research forums that feature studies of complex and poorly understood phenomena (e.g., new science, technology, human resource strategies) with potentially path-breaking implications for management and organizations. Each issue features a Guidepost essay by a prominent scholar or team of scholars along with one to three select articles that highlight empirical discoveries with the potential to shape the evolution of theory on the focal phenomenon and related managerial and organizational challenges. Spotlights work on an accelerated review cycle, with a submission deadline 7-9 months after the Call for Papers, and target publication dates 12-15 months following the Call. Spotlights continue to grow, as related content is tagged in subsequent issues, creating ongoing, distributed conversations.
