Sixth Annual
Mid-Atlantic Strategy Colloquium and Doctoral Workshop
Call for Papers
December 2-3, 2011
The Strategy & Entrepreneurship group at the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill is pleased to host an exciting conference
dedicated to furthering research in the field of strategic management.
The Annual Mid-Atlantic Strategy Colloquium (MASC) is hosted by a different Mid-Atlantic
strategy group each year. The concept is simple and compelling: a casual,
low-key yet energizing, research-focused, developmentally-oriented meeting
of strategy scholars to advance our collective scholarship and to build a
stronger community of strategy scholars in the region.
Date: December 2-3, 2011
Main Program: Noon to 6: 00 pm Friday; 9 am to noon
Saturday
Doctoral Workshop: 1 - 4 pm Saturday
Location: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
NC
Submission Deadline: October 15, 2011
Papers: MASC is committed to providing a forum for high quality
conceptual and empirical papers on the full spectrum of topics within strategic
management utilizing diverse methodologies and data sources, and from a wide
variety of theoretical perspectives. Authors who wish to present their
papers at the conference should electronically submit a copy of the paper, in
the style guide of one of the major journals, and an abstract of 200 words or
less. Only papers that not have been accepted for publication will
be considered. We encourage papers that are under development for
submission to journals, and major conferences. Papers are reviewed by a
panel for inclusion in the program. We seek to be as inclusive as
possible within the time constraints of the conference. Submit papers with the
subject line: “MASC Paper Submission” to Nandini Lahiri [log in to unmask] by October 15,
2011. Authors will be notified about the status of their manuscript no later
than November 7, 2011.
Doctoral Workshop: The MASC doctoral student
workshop is open to all doctoral students from those just beginning doctoral
studies to those completing dissertations. The format is highly
interactive. Students are provided developmental feedback on their
research ideas, theory development, methods, and related aspects. Students
should submit their vita and a one page (single spaced) document that states
their stage in the doctoral program and summarizes their primary research
interest (could attach one working paper or a summary of dissertation
proposal). Doctoral students should submit materials with the subject
line: “MASC Doctoral Workshop Submission” to Devi Gnyawali, [log in to unmask] ,
Virginia Tech, by November 15, 2011.
Given the informal nature of the colloquium and doctoral
workshop, conference participants are asked to cover their own travel and
lodging expenses.
Registration deadline: November 15, 2011.
