Presenter: William L. Gardner; Texas Tech U.; Presenter: Hui Liao; U. of Maryland; Presenter: Sucheta Nadkarni; Drexel U.; Presenter: Aparna Joshi; Pennsylvania State U.; Organizer: Rachel Clapp-Smith; Purdue U., Calumet; Organizer: Gretchen Vogelgesang; San Jose State U.; Back by popular demand, this Professional Development Workshop is intended for both authors who have successfully passed the first round of peer review for article publication and reviewers for the top journals across disciplines. Offered at AOM 2013 in Orlando, this session was standing room only and participants reported the content to be beneficial to their career development. Therefore, panelists and organizers agreed to replicate the event. The panelists represent the Academy of Management Journal, the Journal of Management, the Strategic Management Journal, The Leadership Quarterly, and the Journal for International Business Studies. Each panelist will discuss the requirements to a successful revise and resubmit, which he or she has learned in a career as author, reviewer, and editor. In addition, each panelist will share thoughts regarding the analysis of the first round of peer reviews, any indicators authors should regard as positive or negative signals (red flags), and recommendations for how authors should respond to reviews in order to obtain a conditional acceptance. Each panelist will detail necessary action steps recommended for each of the journals, including requirements for reviewers for these journals. After the panelists conclude their opening remarks, the organizers will open the floor to questions and discussion, allowing participants to share both positive and negative experiences with the R&R process. The session will conclude with the organizers generating a list from both the panelists and participants of best practices for both authors and reviewers to help make the R&R process more efficient and more effective. As an outcome of the AOM 2013 session, this list was circulated to all participants via email. |
