Call for papers
The Strategy Section of ACEDE is pleased to announce the First ACEDE Paper Development Workshop (PDW) in strategy. The workshop aims to assist participants in developing their research into papers that may be suitable for publication in leading academic journals. The PDW will provide detailed and constructive feedback in a collaborative and supportive environment, fostering the advancement of high-quality research in the field of strategy.
We welcome conceptual or empirical contributions on any topic related to strategy. Papers may employ both quantitative (longitudinal or cross-sectional) and qualitative research methods. Submissions may cover any aspect of strategy, including but not limited to competitive advantage, strategic decision-making, innovation or corporate governance.
Submissions will be peer-reviewed by the organizing committee. The workshop welcomes two types of contributions:
- Early-stage works...
...that present innovative ideas, frameworks, or research questions in their formative stages
- Advanced-stage works...
...with well-developed findings or near-completion results.
Submissions with the highest potential will be selected for participation. Accepted proposals may be presented either as a poster or a full presentation. The aim is to foster a collaborative and constructive environment tailored to the needs of both types of contributions. To maintain this focus, the number of accepted proposals will be limited to a maximum of 20.
