Purpose and Agenda: The goal of the PDW is to provide scholars with developmental feedback on research projects in entrepreneurship, innovation, and strategic management and to help position manuscripts for submission to the Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal. Early career researchers are particularly encouraged to apply. The workshop will include panel presentations and Q&A, with a focus on publishing in top journals in general and SEJ in particular, such as what makes a successful (SEJ) paper, and how to address the key challenges that Editors and reviewers commonly see in the review process. Most of the PDW will be used to provide developmental feedback to participating authors on their submitted manuscripts.
