Call for chapter proposals
Being and Becoming a Management Education Scholar
Eds. Charles Wankel and Robert DeFillippi
This seventh volume in the Research in Management Education and Development (Information Age Publishers) series will examine the opportunities, constraints and requirements for achieving academic success in management education and development scholarship. How do the teaching and educational leadership roles in our profession simultaneously provide opportunities for scholarship and academic publications? How are institutional forces (accrediting agencies, university tenure and promotion policies, professional societies, research funding sources) impacting the incentives to engage in management education scholarship? How do academics enact a successful scholarly career based upon significant scholarship in management education and development? What seem to be critical requirements for quality management education scholarship?
We invite manuscript proposals that explicitly examine any of the above (or other) issues related to being or becoming a management education scholar from a biographical, institutional, or disciplinary perspective. We also welcome empirical research that documents the prevalence, impact and status of scholarship in management education and development.
