Purpose

The "Organizational Trust" Paper Development Workshop (PDW) is a pre-Colloquium activity that aims to help advanced PhD students and early-career academics develop their research ideas and papers towards publishable articles in close interaction with leading scholars in the field.

 

The workshop is targeted to improving participants' skills in conducting high quality research and getting their work published in top-tier journals.

Each accepted paper will be briefly presented and then discussed in a very constructive and supportive manner.

All participants will be expected to have read the papers of their fellow session presenters and be ready to contribute to these discussions. Participants will also be expected to attend all sessions of the workshop.
 

The workshop will take place on Wednesday, July 2, 2014, 10:00am–14:00pm.
