Objective

ICGS and CGIR's mission is to improve the quality and the relevance of international corporate governance (CG) research. The purpose of the consortium and the PDW is to provide junior scholars with developmental feedback on their research papers in the field of CG. We are soliciting doctoral students and junior scholars – from any discipline (e.g., accounting, finance, organization, strategy) and any country – to submit an original paper on CG.

Program

The Consortium and the PDW is divided in two parts. In the first hour, CGIR Editors will meet individually with two authors and provide feedback on how to improve their papers, so to increase the probability of acceptance by CGIR or other CG journals. In the second hour, the CGIR Editors-in-Chief and Senior Editors will present the journal's mission and scope, the key statistics on submissions and acceptance rate, and the editorial review process. This will be followed by a question-and-answer session with the editorial team. At the end of the PDW, there will be the possibility to have informal conversations with the Editors-in-Chief, Editors and Editorial Board Members of CGIR so to learn the nuances of successful publication strategies.

Application process

Each applicant may submit only one paper, which may or may not also be scheduled to be presented later in the conference. Submitted papers must be less than 10,000 words in length, include an abstract, up to five keywords, and follow the CGIR author guidelines. Papers should be submitted via Conftool at https://www.conftool.net/icgs2021/ using Track G. The deadline for submissions is September 1 st , 2021.

Submitters will be notified whether they can participate in the event by September 9 th , 2021 and are asked to confirm their participation by September 16 th , 2021. Authors will need to register for the 7 th ICGS conference in order to participate in the event.

The workshop is planned as an in-person event, in Groningen, the Netherlands. In case you do not plan to, or are unable to, attend the workshop in-person in Groningen, you can participate online.
