Theory Development Using Case-Studies is a professional development workshop (PDW) where active case writers devote an afternoon to refine their case research manuscripts by engaging in small group round table discussions with like-minded authors in a collaborative environment for exchange of feedback and ideas. You will make progress towards theory development, extension, exploration and affirmation of your work. Good for PhD students and junior faculty too. The best cases and research manuscripts will be considered for publication in a special issue of the European Journal of Cross-Cultural Competence and Management. www.inderscience.com/ejccm
