This Paper Development Workshop (PDW), organized and sponsored by the European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS) in collaboration with Organization Studies (OS), seeks to provide first-class developmental opportunities for early career scholars (and later stage doctoral candidates) who are based in the Arab Middle East and North Africa region and broadly engaged in research in the field of organization and management studies. The PDW is led by a team of senior scholars with a track record of research excellence.
 
The aim of the workshop is to help participants develop their own current working papers and research projects, as well as their general academic writing skills. The PDW also seeks to increase participants’ awareness of the requirements, expectations, and procedures involved in the review processes at top-tier, peer-reviewed academic outlets through presentations and first-hand discussions with established scholars who also serve in various capacities on the editorial boards of such journals. Please also note that in addition to the benefits of attending the PDW, high potential participants might qualify for a stipend to attend the EGOS Colloquiumin Hamburg in 2020, covering the colloquium registration fee and 1-year EGOS membership. To be considered for the PDW, please develop an application package thatincludes:
 
a)     Extended abstract: The abstract (about 2,000 words max.) should be for a manuscript that you would like to develop further during the workshop. The abstract will include at least an explanation of the paper’s purpose and motivation, theoretical background and, for empirical papers, the methodological approach and firstfindings.
b)     Motivation letter: An accompanying letter should briefly explain why you think you are an excellent candidate for the workshop; how you fit into the overall aim(s) of the planned PDW; what your career stage and research interests are; and what the top two objectives are that you hope to gain from theworkshop.
