The SMS Competitive Strategy Interest Group is offering a research focused junior faculty and paper development workshop at the 2009 Strategic Management Society meetings in Washington, DC.  The Workshop will be held on Saturday, October 10, 2009, from 1 to 6 pm.

 

Although all members of the Competitive Strategy IG are invited to participate, preference will be given to junior faculty who defended their dissertations after September 2004.

 

This workshop will include panel discussions and breakout sessions. Senior faculty panels will discuss critical aspects of the research and publication process, ways to craft a successful research program and future directions in competitive strategy research. A breakout session will provide opportunities for participants to discuss and receive feedback on their work in an informal setting.

 

The faculty panelists include: Anil Gupta (Maryland), Will Mitchell (Duke), Xavier Martin (Tilburg), and Michael Leiblein (Ohio State).  The co-chairs of the faculty panel are Karin Fladmoe-Lindquist (Utah) and Christian Stadler (Dartmouth). 

 

Applications: In order to participate, individuals should email one five-page abstract proposal to Karin Fladmoe-Lindquist  (karin.lindquist@business.utah.edu) by August 15, 2009 as an attachment in a message with the header "Competitive Strategy Workshop Application".

 

In the body of the e-mail please include a statement committing to attend the workshop if accepted, permission to distribute submitted works to session participants, and a commitment to prepare a one-page review of other papers in your assigned breakout session.  Please note that space will be limited in order to ensure a high level of interaction among all participants.

 

Applicants will be informed by September 1, 2009 whether their proposal was accepted. The workshop organizers will group accepted proposals with others that are similar in topic and/or methodology and distribute them to conference participants. Prior to the workshop, participants in each group will prepare written comments and feedback on the other papers in their group. They will exchange feedback during the paper development portion of the workshop, with each group's discussion being facilitated by one or more experienced scholar(s) familiar with the topic or method in question.

 

Deadline for Submissions:  The deadline for submitting an abstract is August 15, 2009.
