Call for Submissions and Reviewers to the International Management (IM) Division at AOM 2023
The International Management (IM) Division at AOM invites submissions for Professional Development Workshops (PDWs), papers and symposia for the scholarly program at the 2023 Annual
Meeting. This year's conference theme is "Putting
the Worker Front and Center". This theme is particularly salient for the IM Division considering the challenges and opportunities that managers face when engaging with people across a variety of national and sub-national contexts under increasingly
volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous conditions.
The International Management (IM) Division of the Academy of Management brings together a global community of scholars researching and teaching management themes with a cross-border
or cross-cultural dimension. These include the influence of the context (e.g., geopolitical and technological changes) on international management and the contribution of management to addressing global social and environmental challenges. Members of the IM
community conduct research on themes such as:

Reviewing: If you submit a paper, PDW
proposal or symposium we also expect you to serve as a reviewer. Please sign up! Select the IM Division and topic codes that reflect
your areas of expertise. We will ask you to review about three submissions
between January 19 and February 16, 2023 and to provide the authors with
thoughtful and constructive comments that are developmental in nature. The
Division recognizes the best reviewers with Best Reviewer Awards.
Professional Development Workshops: The format for PDW sessions is highly flexible.
PDWs may consist of workshops, panels, round-table discussions, training sessions, etc. -- meaningful interaction is the key. As such, PDWs provide opportunities to experiment, with respect to both content and format, that are typically beyond the scope of
regular paper sessions. We seek creative and interactive proposals that promote scholarship or teaching and involve not only other AOM divisions, but also firms, not-for-profit organizations, consultancies, NGOs, and public sector organizations.
Papers and symposia: We invite submissions of paper and symposium proposals that contribute to the overall theme of this year's meeting or questions and issues
distinctive of the international management field. We welcome paper and symposia submissions related to any of the topics within the domain of international management such as the
cross-border management of operations, including multi-country, multi-unit, strategy formulation, and implementation; evolving forms and management
practices in cross-border business; the cross-border differential impact of cultural, social, economic, technological, political, and other institutional
forces on strategies, organizational forms, and management practices; the
international competitiveness of firms, industries, and nations; and
comparative management studies involving two or more countries.
The 2023 PDW sessions will take place August 4 - 5, consortia on August 6, and the papers and symposia on August 7 - 8 at the Annual Meeting in Boston. Please see the Annual
Meeting website for additional information about the conference.
Final paper, symposia and PDW submissions and must be made through the AOM Submission Center website. The deadline for Submissions is Tuesday, 10 January 2023 at 17:00 ET (GMT-5/UTC-5).
This system opened early December 2022.
We look forward to your submissions to and reviewer participation at the IM Division to make for a thoughtful and exciting annual conference in Boston!
