AIB Insights is the Academy of International Business publication that provides an outlet for short (around 2500 words), interesting, topical, current and thought provoking articles. Articles can discuss theoretical, empirical, practical or pedagogical issues affecting the international business community. The publication seeks articles that have an international business and cross disciplinary orientation with IB researchers and faculty as the intended primary audience. Authors should highlight the insight of their article in the first paragraph. They should prompt the reader to think about international business and international business teaching/learning in new ways. Articles sought should be grounded in research, but presented in a readable and accessible format. Articles written for AIB Insights should be free of professional jargon and technical terms, light on references, but heavy on insight from the authors’ experiences and research. Terminology should be defined if it is not in the common domain of the IB literature. Authors should remember the intended audience of the publication and write accordingly. A regression equation, a correlation matrix, a table or a graph needed to support a point may be included.
