Call for Chapters:

Handbook of Cross-Cultural Management

We are putting together a Handbook of Cross-Cultural Management for publication by Edward Elgar Publishing and we would like to invite cross-cultural management researchers to contribute chapters to the Handbook.

We envision the Handbook to cover research studies that unravel both the challenges and rewards of cross-cultural dynamics and also provide practical guidance for individuals, teams, and organizations on navigating and excelling in cross-cultural environments. With this in mind, we aim to have three main sections in the Handbook:

I. Cross-cultural management: From an individual perspective (e.g., expatriates; migrants; students; etc.)

II. Cross-cultural management: From a team perspective (e.g., global teams; global virtual teams; etc.)

III. Cross-cultural management: From an organizational/firm perspective (e.g., MNCs; etc.)

If you have any research works that relate to any of the above topics, we would be delighted to hear about them for possible inclusion to the Handbook. Please submit a one-page proposal (single-space; Times New Roman 12 points) to us via email (see details below) by October 31, 2023. The one-page proposal must include a title, name/s of the author/s, affiliation/s and the summary of the research. We will evaluate the proposal for fit, rigor and relevance to the Handbook and then invite the author/s to further develop the proposal. 

The full chapter must be approximately 10,000 words with abstract of up to 150 words and up to 6 keywords.

For the complete timeline, please refer below:

But we are happy to provide guidance and work alongside the authors to ensure that we can deliver rigorous and impactful cross-cultural management research within the timeframe given to us. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Alfred Presbitero ([log in to unmask]) or Vas Taras ([log in to unmask])
