    "Cognition in the Rough" PDW – Applications due May 15, 2016

     

    ****Sincere apologies if you receive this email more than once due to cross-listing****

     

    19th COGNITION IN THE ROUGH: CALL FOR PROPOSALS 

     

    Are you working on cognition-related research? Would you like to discuss your work with major scholars in the field?  Now is the time to prepare for the 19th annual "COGNITION IN THE ROUGH" workshop to be held at the Academy of Management Meeting in Anaheim, CA this August.

     

    The Cognition in the Rough workshop (CIR) provides an excellent opportunity to discuss your research in an informal, collegial roundtable setting. CIR is intended to help scholars develop a research paper. Each roundtable will have 2-3 facilitators to give feedback on 2-3 early-stage research papers, allowing plenty of time for discussion. Regardless of whether you are a senior or a more junior researcher, this workshop offers you an invaluable opportunity to receive detailed feedback from scholars who are often editors or on the editorial board of top journals. 

     

    In particular, many past CIR participants have emphasized how much they have benefited from their participation in the workshop in terms of developing their theoretical models and their planned methodology. This feedback has been instrumental in helping them further develop and polish their research for publication in top academic journals. Whether this is your first major research project or your fiftieth, this is a chance you won't want to miss! 

     

    We are very pleased that the following scholars have agreed to participate as facilitators: Neal Ashkanasy, Peter Belmi, Stuart Bunderson, Andrea Casey, Marlys Christianson, Viktor Dörfler, Pacey Foster, Margaret Gorman, Emily Heaphy, Gerard Hodgkinson, Glen Kreiner, Theresa Lant, Kyle Lewis, Steve Mezias, Chet Miller, Frances Milliken, Rhonda Reger, Kevin Rockmann, Kathleen Sutcliffe, Subra Tangirala, and Philipp Tuertscher.

     

    Sponsored by the Managerial and Organizational Cognition Division at the annual Academy of Management Meeting, the workshop is scheduled for 9 a.m. – 12 p.m., Saturday August 6th. 

     

    KEY DATES: 

    Open for submission – APRIL 15, 2016; close date – MAY 15, 2016 
    Send submissions to: cirpdw@gmail.com
    Acceptance notices will be sent out after JUNE 15, 2016

     

    We look forward to seeing you in Anaheim! 

     

    The organizers of this workshop are:

    John Paul Stephens, Case Western Reserve University

    Erin Reid, Boston University

    19th ANNUAL "COGNITION IN THE ROUGH" PDW WORKSHOP 

    WHO: This roundtable workshop is open to junior and senior scholars who are doing research related to managerial and organizational cognition. Pre-registration for the PDW is required and space is limited. 

    Submissions will be evaluated to ensure fit with the session and priority will be given to early submissions and first-time attendees. Given space constraints, the expectation for this PDW is that, even for co-authored papers with multiple authors, one author will attend the PDW to represent the paper. This PDW is intended to help authors develop work in progress and, as a result, we cannot accept papers that have already been accepted for presentation elsewhere at the AOM 2016 Annual Meeting. 

     

    WHAT: Your submission should include the following four sections: 

    I. Title page: On the title page, in addition to the paper's title and the names and affiliations of the authors, please also indicate whether each author is a doctoral student or faculty member.

    II. Brief abstract (not to exceed 150 words) and four keywords (selected from the following list). Please rankthe four keywords you select in order of importance (1=most important).
