Dear OB-Colleagues,
For those seeking to boost research productivity, publish and expand
co-author network: X-Culture Research Hackathon.
You may have heard about the X-Culture Project.
About 5,000 people working in 850 global virtual teams from 40+
countries participate in the project every semester. The teams are
closely observed and the project generates tons of data. We track over
2,000 variables; longitudinal, multi-level, multi-source, multi-method
data. The data are suitable for studying just about any aspect of
teamwork, international collaboration, OB and international business.
Think about it as a giant virtual research lab!
We believe in open collaboration, so we share our data.
More on our data and principles of collaboration here:
https://x-culture.org/for-researchers/data/
***
To boost our research productivity and collaboration, X-Culture
organizes regular research HACKATHONS (aka Paper Development Conference).
Four-day, non-stop paper development marathon. You return home with a
clear paper idea, co-authors, initial results, feedback, and a draft of
paper.
