SUMMARY:AMD Call for Submissions: Registered Reports
DESCRIPTION:Learn About AOM Registered Reports\n\n\n\n\nIn cases in which results\, whether present or not\, may have important theoretical or practical implications\, scholars are encouraged to submit a Registered Report. In this type of submission\, authors submit the introduction\, methods\, measurement info\, and analysis plan (but not the results) of a completed or planned study. This abbreviated paper is then evaluated on the basis of the importance of the topic\, the merit of the selected analytic approach\, methodological rigor and quality\, and potential for impacting down-the-road theorizing and/or practice/policy. As results are not included in the registered report\, what was or is likely to be found has no bearing on the outcome of the evaluation. This is in line with AMD’s willingness to publish papers reporting negligible or non-effects (see Miller & Bamberger\, 2016).

SUMMARY:Annals Idea Development Workshop\, Vienna\, Austria
DESCRIPTION:In-person Paper Development Workshop hosted by WU Vienna University of Economics and Business\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPurpose and Agenda\n\n\n\nThis Idea Development Workshop (IDW) is primarily geared toward anyone (regardless of rank) interested in publishing in the Annals—the leading journal dedicated to publishing integrative reviews. This IDW is designed to help participants develop great ideas that are the foundation for well-crafted proposals for submission to the Annals. \n\n\n\nThe workshop has two parts. In the first part\, we provide information about writing integrative reviews and publishing in the Annals. The Annals team will provide an overview of the publication process of the Annals\, how proposals are evaluated\, and how to address the key elements of the proposal. \n\n\n\nIn the second part\, we offer roundtable discussions of participants’ ideas for proposals to be submitted to the Annals (please come prepared to discuss your idea). We will match several participants with a facilitator (Annals Associate Editor or EIC) who will discuss and provide feedback on these ideas. Participation in this part of the workshop is limited. \n\n\n\nThere are two steps to participation: \n\n\n\n\nApplication and submission of a proposal\, and;\n\n\n\nRegistration and payment for those who are accepted.\n\n\n\n\nApplication  Information\n\n\n\nAn application is required for all participants.

Paid registrations may be transferred to another member of the accepted author’s team.

SUMMARY:AMP Call for Special Issue Papers: Managing Under Political Turbulence
DESCRIPTION:Submission Deadline: 30 September 2026 \n\n\n\n\nSubmit via the AMP Manuscript Central Site\n\n\n\n\nGuest Editors:\n\n\n\n\nJonathan Doh\, Villanova University\n\n\n\nSrividya Jandhyala\, ESSEC Business School\n\n\n\nYadong Luo\, University of Miami\n\n\n\nGrazia D. Santangelo\, Copenhagen Business School\n\n\n\n\nAMP Associate Editor:\n\n\n\n\nTazeeb Rajwani\, University of Surrey\n\n\n\n\nBackground\n\n\n\nPolitical turbulence is on the rise\, as evidenced most dramatically in violent conflicts (e.g.\, wars\, terrorism attacks)\, volatile political transitions (e.g.\, dramatic regime change\, cuts to government employees\, new geopolitical alliances\, coups)\, and geopolitical tensions (e.g.\, trade wars\, democratic backsliding\, sanctions). This escalated political turbulence exacerbates geopolitical risks for organizations and their stakeholders.1 How should they handle it? \n\n\n\nWhether anticipatory (e.g.\, fear of cyberattacks) or actual (e.g.\, ongoing trade wars\, competition over territories)\, rising geopolitical risks affect organizations in many ways.2 The rise of techno-nationalism\,3 driven by national security and ideological concerns\, challenges the resilience of global technology supply chains. With the rapid development of AI comes misinformation and disinformation that further aggravate political tensions and ideologies. Tariffs\, sanctions\, and protectionist trade restrictions bring escalating compliance risks. Rising populist sentiment drives immigration restrictions and is creating a shortage of high-skill talent for MNEs.4 \n\n\n\nPolitical turbulence has long been a strategic consideration in some sectors such as energy and defense\, but it is now affecting organizations in nearly all sectors\,5 both at home and abroad. At home\, organizations encounter scrutiny from civil society for their operations in countries with questionable international standing.6 Abroad\, they may face interventions by host country governments that vary with their country of origin or type of ownership.  All of this presents considerable challenges for managers and their organizations. \n\n\n\nThis special issue aims to provide actionable\, evidence-based insights that clearly and credibly guide managers and their organizations in navigating the political turbulence that increasingly characterizes the international\, national\, and subnational landscape. We seek to fill in the “glaring white space” of how organizations can best operate under political turbulence\, providing robust insights on which practitioners and policy makers can rely. \n\n\n\nPlease note that AMP’s mission and format differ from many other leading academic journals. AMP papers are managerially driven\, not theory driven. Successful submissions clearly define the managerial issue from the outset and make a compelling case for its importance. They do not simply tack managerial implications onto a standard academic study. Rather\, AMP papers evidence actionable insights that can credibly guide managerial behavior and influence policy decisions. We strongly encourage potential authors to review AMP’s guidelines before submission. Note that we also welcome Practitioner Perspectives essays and Constructive Confrontations papers for this special issue. Guidance for all formats is on our website. \n\n\n\nScope and Open-Ended Research Questions\n\n\n\nFor this special issue\, we welcome rigorous and insightful submissions that address a broad range of political turbulences associated with various adverse events that disrupt organizations\, such as national security clashes\, trade conflicts\, territorial wars\, terrorism\, misinformation\, removal of government officials\, reductions in civil liberties\, etc. Our focus is on providing actionable\, evidence-based insights of how organizations and managers can best comprehend\, influence\, internalize\, adapt\, or mitigate the political risks associated with these changes. Such insights can address firms’ efforts to influence politics and respond to political turbulence\, as well as the impact of political turbulence on firms\, their employees\, and other stakeholders. \n\n\n\nBelow we provide a set of open-ended questions to evoke topics germane to this special issue. These are starting points and are neither comprehensive nor exclusive\, but they’re a good start! \n\n\n\nUnderstanding Different Types and Forms of Political Turbulence. Scholars have distinguished between political risk and uncertainty. Is this classification scheme effective at helping managers understand political turbulence and how to act upon it? Are there better frameworks? \n\n\n\nRethinking Corporate Political Strategies. How should firms integrate corporate political activities (e.g.\, bridging\, lobbying\, alliance-building\, campaigning\, political contributions\, regulatory engagement) to best navigate different types of political turbulence? How should firms address covert political activities (e.g. bribery\, misinformation\, deep fakes)? Which strategies best enable firms to balance global and local political pressures? How should firms deploy corporate diplomacy and activism in an increasingly polarized environment? \n\n\n\nReorganizing and Realigning Geographically Diversified Operations. How can organizations from various regions\, countries\, and sectors respond and adapt to rapid and often unforeseen political change? How can managers prepare for and be more resilient in the face of these changes? Which organizational structures best support flexibility and resilience in uncertain environments? How should leaders determine which operations to decouple or restructure? \n\n\n\nManaging Stakeholder Nationalism. Nationalist sentiment can influence consumer and shareholder behavior and penalize organizations for their political stands and countries of origin. Under what conditions should organizations disengage from\, reduce\, or change their political activities? Which strategies can organizations adopt to avoid being perceived as political actors? \n\n\n\nThe Role of New Technologies. What are the best ways to use AI\, blockchain\, and other digital technologies and intelligence to inform decision-making and improve risk management in a politically turbulent environment? Can firms use such technologies for regulatory compliance and operational agility at the same time? Which new methods (e.g.\, AI/machine learning\, field experience\, political training) are best suited to providing an early warning system? What are the trade-offs between quality of insights versus cost of development for such systems? \n\n\n\nManaging Corporate Innovation. Groundbreaking innovation often requires combining knowledge and innovation from different sources and locations. How can organizations preserve innovation opportunities despite the increased national security focus? How should organizations evaluate the trade-offs in local versus global efforts in innovation? Which strategies allow them to exploit innovations in new technologies such as AI\, quantum computing\, and biotechnology while balancing regulatory/political obligations? \n\n\n\nNavigating the Race for Talent. The knowledge and social capital of highly skilled migrant workers provides critical insights and valuable connections across borders. Yet political turbulence fosters a populism sentiment that drives anti-immigration policies. How should firms manage talent across borders under these conditions? \n\n\n\nWe welcome both conceptual and empirical papers that are grounded in rigorous analysis and directly evidence specific and significant managerial and policy actions. We welcome accounts of embodied\, lived experiences of specific political turbulence and the use of reflexive methodologies. Quantitative analyses of large databases\, qualitative comparative analyses\, and extensive data analysis using linguistic programs and algorithms are also fair game. In short\, we want papers that prove what can or does work in ways that managers and policymakers can use. \n\n\n\nDeadline\, Submission\, and Review Process\n\n\n\nThe final deadline is 30 September 2026 at 23:59 ET (DST+1\, UTC-4). All submissions must be uploaded to the AMP Manuscript Central website between 1 September 2026 and 30 September 2026\, inclusive. \n\n\n\nAll papers will be reviewed according to the current policies of Academy of Management Perspectives. AMP papers should be grounded in robust empirical evidence or conceptual frameworks\, address relevant real-world managerial and policy issues\, offer actionable insights\, avoid theory fetish\, and be written in a style accessible to non-specialists and practitioners. \n\n\n\nWe intend to host a Paper Development Workshop for selected authors to further develop their manuscripts. Participation in this workshop is neither a guarantee nor a prerequisite for publication.  \n\n\n\nEndnotes\n\n\n\n1. G.K. Adarkwah\, S. Dorobantu\, C.A. Sabel\, and F.

SUMMARY:AMLE Call for Special Issue Papers: Rethinking Business School Structures\, Standards\, and Success for Neuroinclusive Management Learning and Education

Amid this period of re-evaluation and change\, recognition is growing that an estimated 15-20% of the global population is neurodivergent (Doyle\, 2020). With more than half of Gen Z (1997-2012) now identifying as neurodivergent (Palumbo\, 2025)\, it underscores the urgency of advancing theoretical\, empirical\, and pedagogical conversations about whom business school systems of teaching\, assessment\, and professional formation are designed to serve – and how they might evolve to achieve greater neuroinclusion. \n\n\n\nNeurodiversity\, a term collectively developed by neurodivergent individuals (Botha et al.\, 2024)\, refers to the full spectrum of natural variation in human cognitive functioning. Individuals who diverge from dominant neurocognitive norms are often described as neurodivergent\, encompassing cognitive profiles such as Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC)\, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)\, dyslexia\, dysgraphia\, dyscalculia\, dyspraxia\, Tourette Syndrome\, and other forms of neurodivergence (Doyle et al.\, forthcoming; Quigley & Gallagher\, 2025). These forms of neurodivergence are not deficits to be ‘fixed’ but reflect different patterns of perception\, attention\, memory\, and communication\, which may entail both distinct challenges and unique strengths in educational and workplace settings (Kersten et al.\, 2025; Shaw et al.\, 2024). ADHD individuals\, for example\, may excel in high-energy\, fast-paced problem-solving (Doyle\, 2020) but face difficulties with sustained concentration during lengthy case discussions or traditional assessments. Dyslexic learners often demonstrate strong visual-spatial reasoning and creativity (LeFevre-Levy et al.\, 2023) yet may encounter barriers when coursework relies heavily on time-pressured reading and written tasks. \n\n\n\nThere has been a marked increase in the number of neurodivergent learners entering higher education in recent years\, driven by rising awareness and improved access pathways (McDowall & Kiseleva\, 2024). In the UK\, for example\, up to 2% of university students may meet diagnostic criteria for ASC\, with an additional 2-8% potentially being ADHD (Ahmann et al.\, 2018; Anderson et al.\, 2019). Dyslexia is also widespread\, with approximately 5% of higher education students being dyslexic (Clouder et al.\, 2020). Nonetheless\, these figures likely underestimate the true prevalence of neurodivergence in business and higher education as many learners remain undiagnosed or choose not to disclose their neurodivergent status (Clouder et al.\, 2020; Kennedy et al.\, 2025). \n\n\n\nBusiness schools traditionally tend to privilege narrow forms of learning\, expression\, and social interaction (Clouder et al.\, 2020; Hennekam et al.\, 2025; McDowall & Kiseleva\, 2024) that assume neurotypicality and place the burden of adaptation on neurodivergent individuals (Milton\, 2012; Milton et al.\, 2022). This approach fails to recognize that the challenges of neurodiversity are fundamentally breakdowns in mutual understanding between neurodivergent and neurotypical people grounded in differences in their patterns of attention\, communication\, and interpretation of social information (e.g.\, Williams\, 2021)—a double empathy problem (Milton\, 2012; Milton et al.\, 2022) rather than one party’s mind blindness or lack of empathy. Failing to see the double empathy problem produces pedagogical expectations that can disadvantage those whose strengths and needs do not align with these implicit norms\, limiting their ability to fully participate and succeed. For example\, a neurotypical academic staff member may misunderstand a neurodivergent student’s lack of eye contact or neutral facial expression as signs of lack of preparation or disinterest rather than intentional strategies to effectively manage sensory input and attentional resources. \n\n\n\nPedagogically\, group work\, a core element of many business schools\, similarly assumes strong relational and communication skills\, which may not align with all neurocognitive profiles. Similarly\, particularities of neurodivergent students\, such as hyperfocus among those with ADHD or monotropism\, referring to the tendency to focus one’s attention on a small or singular number of interests\, common among autistic students\, are often ignored or positioned as irrelevant (Wood\, 2023). Moreover\, challenges faced by neurodivergent learners are intensified for postgraduate students\, mature learners\, and those diagnosed later in life\, who often encounter disbelief\, inconsistent support\, or are completely overlooked by institutions (Butcher & Lane\, 2024; Coneyworth et al.\, 2020). \n\n\n\nEven when available\, neurodivergent learners may be unaware of available support or may refrain from requesting accommodations to which they are entitled due to the fear of stigmatization (Clouder et al.\, 2020). These students often attempt to conform to neurotypical norms\, masking their difficulties or distinctive traits (Hennekam et al.\, 2025). They consequently tend to manage their challenges by themselves (Mirfin-Veitch et al.\, 2020)\, a strategy that may prove unsustainable over time for them and their support groups (Hennekam et al.\, 2025). As a result\, and despite being academically capable\, degree completions remain low (Chown et al.\, 2018). For many\, the consequences extend beyond poorer academic outcomes to diminished access to meaningful employment (Bury et al.\, 2024)\, an issue particularly stark for autistic individuals whose employment rates remain among the lowest of any disability group (ABS\, 2022; Alemany & Vermeulen\, 2023; Austin & Pisano\, 2017; Ezerins et al.\, 2024; Moeller et al.\, 2021). \n\n\n\nWhile several excellent special issues have advanced the conversation on neurodiversity in management and organizations\, this special issue offers a fundamentally distinct vantage point. Whereas prior collections—such as those in the Journal of Management & Organization (2019)\, Human Resource Management (2025)\, and the forthcoming issues in Academy of Management Discoveries\, Personnel Review\, International Journal of Management Reviews\, and Group & Organization Management—center primarily on neurodiversity in relation to employment\, inclusion practices\, and organizational systems and outcomes\, this Academy of Management Learning & Education special issue uniquely foregrounds the importance of reimagining management learning and education to better serve all minds and to develop neurodiversity-informed managers who are equipped to make organizations more neuroinclusive. \n\n\n\nFor this special issue\, we encourage conceptual and empirical work that envisions business schools as models of neuroinclusion. Our call also shifts the focus from ‘accommodating and managing difference’ to ‘learning through difference’ and understanding how difference\, as a form of diversity\, enhances learning and group capabilities. In doing so\, it extends the dialogue beyond workplace adaptation to examining how neurodiversity both challenges and enriches the processes through which management knowledge is constructed\, taught\, and understood by learners\, and how this also impacts emergent group functions (i.e.\, decision-making and morality). We therefore invite a more inclusive understanding of learning and knowing in management education\, one that values diverse cognitive styles and experiences as integral to the co-creation of knowledge and practice. \n\n\n\nIn this vein\, we invite contributors to explore diverse perspectives that enrich and expand conversations on neurodiversity in management learning and education. In particular\, we encourage submissions that move beyond single-diagnosis approaches recognizing the breadth within and across neurodivergences\, including: developmental (e.g.\, ADHD\, dyslexia\, dyspraxia\, dyscalculia)\, acquired (e.g.\, traumatic brain injury\, epilepsy)\, mental health (e.g.\, anxiety\, obsessive-compulsive disorder; Edwards et al.\, 2024)\, and physical health conditions (e.g.\, chronic fatigue syndrome\, hearing or vision impairment). These categories are not mutually exclusive and neurodivergent conditions often co-occur. For example\, those who present with ADHD and anxiety\, or those who are dyspraxic and autistic\, may experience both distinctive challenges and synergies in learning and workplaces. \n\n\n\nFurthermore\, this special issue welcomes contributions that embrace conceptual plurality\, engaging with alternative or adjacent conceptualisations of neurodiversity – whether framed as natural variation and ecology (Chapman\, 2021) or through disability (Brown & Leigh\, 2020)\, misfit (Billsberry et al.\, 2023)\, being ‘different’ or other evolving terms that capture the complex ways individuals experience (mis)alignment with institutional learning environments and how this also impacts emergent group functions and group-level outcomes. Embracing such plurality also requires turning the lens toward academic and professional staff who shape these environments. Doing so exposes a broader empirical and theoretical blind spot in understanding the attitudes and experiences of academic and professional staff with disabilities (Anderson\, 2006; Brown & Leigh\, 2020; Little et al.\, 2023) and\, in particular\, those with neurocognitive conditions (Alexander\, 2024). \n\n\n\nOf interest in this special issue also are how inclusive pedagogy\, constructive alignment\, Universal Design for Learning (UDL)\, and learner partnership models can transform educational design and practice to better serve the full spectrum of learners (CAST\, 2024; Rose & Meyer\, 2006). For example\, a management educator might offer students multiple ways to demonstrate learning\, such as a written essay\, an infographic\, or forms of digitalization (Walkowiak\, 2024)\, or a recorded presentation\, thereby valuing diverse modes of cognition and communication. Similarly\, predictable course rhythms and clearly scaffolded tasks can reduce cognitive load and anxiety for neurodivergent students while increasing engagement and clarity for everyone. Finally\, incorporating learner partnership models—where students collaborate with educators to co-design learning activities\, assessment criteria\, or feedback processes—can cultivate a sense of shared ownership\, agency\, and belonging across the entire student cohort. For business schools\, this will result in very real considerations of workload models\, academic and professional staff training\, and the redistribution of institutional resources to ensure that inclusive pedagogical intentions are supported by genuine structural and financial commitment. \n\n\n\nAttention should likewise be directed to an intersectional perspective on neurodivergence (Gottardello et al.\, 2025)\, which acknowledges that intersecting identities—such as gender\, race\, and culture—interact and fundamentally shape how neurological differences are understood and enacted. For example\, the experience of a dyslexic woman of color in academia or that of a neurodivergent international student navigating an unfamiliar education system may reveal unique intersections of cognitive\, cultural\, and structural differences (Crenshaw\, 1991; Lewis & Arday\, 2023; Rivera\, 2022)\, which offers an opportunity to explore the interactions of dispositional and circumstantial diversity. In particular\, we encourage research and reflections from diverse cultural and national contexts which support and extend ecological understandings of neurodiversity and challenge dominant epistemological assumptions. Consequently\, we provide a space to decenter Eurocentric and Anglophone paradigms of management learning and education\, enabling more culturally grounded understandings of neurodivergence (Atherton et al.\, 2023; Bernier & McCrimmon\, 2022; de Leeuw et al.\, 2020; Felix & Hennekam\, in press; Ott et al.\, 2025; Tupou et al.\, 2024). These perspectives will ultimately challenge dominant Western deficit discourses and offer novel pathways for pedagogical and institutional inclusion\, as well as opening promising frontiers for the application of institutional theory (Cook\, 2024) and intersectionality research (Gottardello et al.\, 2025). \n\n\n\nAt a theoretical level\, management learning and education continues to be informed by approaches that presume and privilege neurotypicality and associate neurodivergence with medicalized deficits rather than as part of a natural ecology. We posit that institutions that implement inclusive teaching practices often do so without interrogating the deeper epistemic assumptions that define what counts as legitimate knowledge\, effective pedagogy\, or “good” learning. To illustrate\, efforts to engage neurodiversity in practice and management learning and education research have largely been narrow and at the individual-level\, overlooking a more ecological perspective that focuses on the interplay of factors at micro\, meso\, and macro levels (Chapman\, 2021). Drawing on Bronfenbrenner’s (2000) ecological systems theory—which posits that individual development is shaped by multiple\, interrelated environmental layers—may offer a valuable lens for examining how business schools can become more inclusive. For this special issue\, we therefore encourage pursuing the above-mentioned ideas and contexts from various theoretical perspectives\, epistemological assumptions\, and levels of analysis. \n\n\n\nIn conjunction with the ecological systems view\, a range of theoretical lenses\, such as social identity theory and identity work\, critical race or critical disability theories\, queer theory and power lenses\, but also decolonial perspectives may be pertinent to studying intersectional identities\, forms of oppression\, and co-occurring conditions (Mallipeddi & Van Daalen\, 2022). Social learning theory and especially self-efficacy beliefs (Bandura\, 1997)\, learned helplessness (Kapp\, 2022)\, and the internalization of negative beliefs about their competencies or stigma (Hennekam et al.\, 2025) might likewise be relevant to studying educational outcomes as well as the school-to-work transition of neurodivergent students in business schools (O’Byrne et al.\, 2019). This is supported by empirical research showing that neurodivergent students often report lower self-efficacy than their neurotypical peers\, which may hinder confidence and career readiness (Buckley et al.\, 2024). \n\n\n\nIn sum\, we encourage contributions that critically examine how insights from neuroscience and neuro-ethics can inform\, but should not uncritically determine\, approaches to neuroinclusive management learning and education (Cavanaugh et al.\, 2016; Lindebaum et al.\, 2018). We invite scholars\, educational practitioners\, business school leaders\, policymakers\, and even practitioners from across inclusive education\, disability studies\, critical management studies\, organizational behavior and theory\, and other fields to enrich neurodiversity discourse and contribute to a more expansive\, socially just\, and humanizing vision of management learning and education. \n\n\n\nIllustrative Themes and Research Questions\n\n\n\nIn the context of the Business of Business Schools\, the following questions could be explored: \n\n\n\n\nHow does neurodiversity help reimagine social justice and DEI in business schools?\n\n\n\nWhat tensions emerge between performance metrics and inclusion for neurodivergent students\, academic and professional staff\, and how are such trade-offs effectively managed?\n\n\n\nHow do policies on reasonable accommodations align (or conflict) with institutional objectives and wider institutional logics?\n\n\n\nHow is neurodiversity effectively addressed in non-WEIRD (Western\, Educated\, Industrialized\, Rich\, and Democratic) environments and institutional settings in higher education contexts? \n\n\n\nHow does a country’s legal context shape the expectations\, obligations\, and opportunities for business schools to develop and deliver more neuroinclusive pedagogy?\n\n\n\nHow can existing practices and processes within business schools be adjusted and/or redesigned to be more neuroinclusive (e.g.\, recruiting and selection\, onboarding\, networking\, and organizational culture)?\n\n\n\nHow can business schools attract and retain neurodivergent talent (learners\, academics and professional staff)?\n\n\n\nHow can business schools support neurodivergent academic and professional staff and challenge ableism as an organizational paradigm?\n\n\n\nHow do business schools address the neurodiversity of learners\, academic\, and professional staff at different levels (i.e.\, undergraduate\, postgraduate\, executive education) and in different cultural and institutional contexts?\n\n\n\n\nIn the context of management learning\, the following questions could be explored: \n\n\n\n\nHow do neurodivergent learners\, academic and professional staff experience management learning processes differently and what unique challenges do they face?\n\n\n\nWhat are the experiences of learners and academic and professional staff with intersectional social identities involving neurodiversity?\n\n\n\nWhat is the role of institutional logics/culture\, pedagogy\, peer learners\, and academic and professional staff in the way neurodivergent individuals and groups experience and navigate their management education\, including from an intersectionality perspective? \n\n\n\nWhat insights can be gleaned from the experiences of neurodivergent learners and academic and professional staff regarding neurotypical norms in management education? What role do visibility and representation specifically play in this?\n\n\n\nHow can cross-neurotype (between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals) collaboration and connection be fostered and leveraged in the classroom and outside it (i.e.\, bridging the “double empathy problem\,” Milton\, 2012)?\n\n\n\nHow do neurodiverse groups of learners (i.e.\, those with neurotypical and neurodivergent members) work together (e.g.\, the biases experienced or avoided\, the interpersonal challenges) and perform (e.g.\, task performance\, creativity)?\n\n\n\nHow do neurodivergent individuals experience the transition into the workforce as well as from secondary school into management education? What practices\, supports\, and tools aid more successful transitions? How do these transitional practices vary across global cultures?\n\n\n\nWhat role does executive functioning\, sensory processing\, or divergent social cognition play in shaping reflection and feedback loops within learning processes?\n\n\n\nIn what ways can experiential learning or study abroad be adapted for neurodivergent learners and educators?\n\n\n\nHow does neurodiversity inform alternative models of learner identity and transformation?\n\n\n\nWhat is the impact of educational support on academic achievements and the employability of neurodivergent individuals?\n\n\n\nWhat role do internships and mentoring play in the academic achievements and work-readiness of neurodivergent management learners? \n\n\n\nHow can business schools foster neuro-inclusion as a leadership and management capability?\n\n\n\n\nIn the context of management education\, the following questions could be explored:   \n\n\n\n\nHow can universal design for learning and inclusive pedagogy reshape management education?\n\n\n\nHow can constructive alignment more effectively incorporate the needs and experiences of neurodivergent learners and educators across different levels and contexts?\n\n\n\nWhat can we learn from neuro-inclusive education in other fields? What best practices\, policies\, and procedures can be identified?\n\n\n\nHow do assessment and participation norms impact neurodivergent learners’ educational outcomes?\n\n\n\nHow does neurodiversity intersect with other (potentially) stigmatizing attributes or sources of social identities\, such as gender\, age\, race\, ethnicity\, sexual orientation\, or other disabilities among management learners?\n\n\n\nHow do individuals with multiple co-occurring neurocognitive conditions navigate higher management education?\n\n\n\nWhat teaching innovations have emerged in neurodiversity-informed business courses and programs?\n\n\n\nHow important is visibility and representation among academic and professional staff?\n\n\n\nHow may internalized ableism and embodied pedagogy affect neurodivergent academic and professional staff?\n\n\n\nHow do inclusive pedagogies engage with issues of masking\, disclosure\, and psychological safety?\n\n\n\nHow can technology\, and in particular artificial intelligence\, be meaningfully leveraged to support neurodivergent learners in management education? How can such technologies be used to enhance cross-neurotype collaborations and relationships?\n\n\n\nHow are higher education institutions and educators adapting AI-driven educational technologies to support neurodivergent learners in management programs?\n\n\n\n\nSubmission types\n\n\n\nFor this special issue\, we invite submissions to all of the Academy of Management Learning & Education’s peer-reviewed sections\, including Research and Reviews\, Essays\, and Book and Resource Reviews. We particularly welcome research studies based on extensive data—qualitative\, quantitative\, and mixed method—using any well-executed and rigorous methodology and strong theoretical framing. Finally\, related to the issue of representation\, we especially encourage submissions from neurodivergent authors and author teams. Submissions will be subject to the normal editorial decision-making and peer-review processes. All the journal’s standard formatting and peer review guidelines will apply. \n\n\n\nInquiries\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions or would like to discuss a possible submission\, please contact Miriam Moeller and Dana L. Ott. Please note that such consultation is not a precondition\, requirement\, or guarantee of acceptance for any submission. Authors who have not consulted with the Guest Editor Team are equally welcome to submit. \n\n\n\nSubmission details\n\n\n\nWe invite special issue submissions to occur between 1 November 2026 and 14 December 2026 through the AMLE’s manuscript central system. \n\n\n\nPrior to submission\, we will hold an optional virtual professional development workshop at the end of May 2026\, for interested authors to receive feedback on their ideas. Those interested in participating in the workshop should e-mail a 3\,000-word proposal (including references) to Miriam Moeller and Dana L. Ott by 13 May 2026. \n\n\n\nWe also plan to offer workshops to discuss this special issue at the European Academy of Management in June 2026 (Kristiansand\, Norway)\, the European Group of Organisational Studies in July (Bergamo\, Italy)\, the Academy of International Business conference in July 2026 (Manchester\, UK)\, the Academy of Management conference in August 2026 (Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania) and the Brazilian Academy of Management in October 2026. We will share more details about these and other opportunities when available via the AMLE website and various listservs. \n\n\n\nWhile we encourage interested contributors to participate in these opportunities\, they are not a prerequisite for\, or a guarantee of\, eventual acceptance in the special issue. \n\n\n\nAcknowledgments \n\n\n\nThis Call for Papers was translated using an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Translator tool developed by The University of Queensland in collaboration with the Association for Information Systems Taskforce on AI Translation for Inclusive\, Impactful Science.

SUMMARY:AMP Call for Special Issue Papers: Turning Implications Into Evidence
DESCRIPTION:Special Issue of Academy of Management Perspectives\n\n\n\nTurning Implications Into Evidence: Actionable Solutions to Real-World Problems of Practice and Policy Based on Prior Academy of Management Publications\n\n\n\nSubmission Deadline: 31 January 2027 at 23:59 ET \n\n\n\nGuest Editors\n\n\n\n\nJulian Birkinshaw\, Western University\n\n\n\nThomas P. Lyon\, University of Michigan\n\n\n\nDenise M. Rousseau\, Carnegie Mellon University\n\n\n\nMajken Schultz\, Copenhagen Business School\n\n\n\nMo Wang\, University of Florida\n\n\n\n\nAcademy of Management Perspectives (AMP) Editor\n\n\n\n\nMichael L. Barnett\, Rutgers University\n\n\n\n\nAmid rising concern about the relevance of their contents\, many scholarly journals mandate inclusion of a managerial implications section. This section may be relegated to a few paragraphs at the end of an article and comprised of speculative statements loosely connected to the paper’s empirical or theoretical content. And there these unvalidated implications tend to remain\, largely unaddressed in future research studies and having little relevance to practice or policy. \n\n\n\nIn this special issue\, we call for original research that develops actionable solutions from previously published managerial implications. We draw attention to opportunities for useful research on real-world problems of practice and policy overlooked in managerial implications sections and seek to develop novel studies that take the next step of analyzing them in robust ways that directly evidence specific guidance for practitioners and policy makers. \n\n\n\nBy developing actionable insights from underdeveloped or dormant implications\, this special issue of Academy of Management Perspectives furthers the core function outlined in an editorial published across each of the Academy of Management (AOM) journals recently: \n\n\n\nA core function of any science is the development of a corpus of valid and reliable knowledge. An applied science has the added demand that knowledge be usable outside of academia. When scholars understand the interdependence among individual papers and among the AOM’s seven journals\, then the work that they create should be more integrated\, improving our field’s contributions and maintaining the value and relevance of the AOM for the future (Cronin et al\, 2025: 364). \n\n\n\nThe portfolio of AOM journals forms a system of knowledge production in which each journal has a complementary specialization. Within this system\, AMP papers provide actionable insights that guide practitioner behavior and influence policy decisions. To do so\, AMP papers build on theory developed\, tested\, and organized in other journals; and in doing so\, AMP papers enrich these theories by revealing nuances and boundaries of their usefulness. \n\n\n\nTo highlight and enhance the process of knowledge production across AOM’s portfolio of interdependent journals and to make its scope more manageable\, this special issue is limited to papers that analyze practice and policy implications previously published in any of the seven established AOM journals: Academy of Management Annals (Annals)\, Academy of Management Collections (Collections)\, Academy of Management Discoveries (AMD)\, Academy of Management Journal (AMJ)\, Academy of Management Learning & Education (AMLE)\, Academy of Management Review (AMR)\, and Academy of Management Perspectives (AMP). The article containing the focal implication on which a submission to this special issue is based must have been published in or fully (not conditionally) accepted to any of the journals listed above at any point up to 31 December 2026. \n\n\n\nSubmissions must conduct novel empirical or conceptual analysis. AMP does not accept managerial “translations” that restate previously published work in more practice-friendly terms. Moreover\, we do not accept papers that address managerial implications for which actionable solutions have already been adequately developed through prior publications. Authors submitting to this special issue may be\, but are not required to be\, an author of the published article containing the managerial implication. \n\n\n\nPlease note that AMP’s mission and format differ from many other leading academic journals. We strongly encourage potential authors to review AMP’s guidelines before submission\, to include reading editorials that outline our approach and provide templates for both empirical and conceptual contributions. Though our format differs\, AMP’s analytical standards are the same as at any other AOM journal\, demanding robust analysis that fulfills current social science standards. \n\n\n\nAll submissions must be uploaded to the AMP Manuscript Central website from the 1st until the 31st of January 2027. The final deadline for submissions is 31 January 2027 at 23:59 ET (DST+1\,UTC-4). When submitting\, include a cover letter that specifies the source of the managerial implication that the submission is based on. Please provide the full citation\, the page number(s) on which the managerial implication is published\, and paste direct quotes therefrom. If the managerial implication is not directly quotable\, then make a strong case in the cover letter to support your inference. Any inference must be conservative\, avoiding misrepresenting or stretching the intent of the implication. Submissions that take excessive liberties with interpretation of a managerial implication will be desk rejected. Also in the cover letter\, specify how your submission analyzed the focal managerial implication and the actionable insights that were evidenced. \n\n\n\nSubmissions should be written in AMP style and format\, and as stand-alone papers. To stand alone\, a paper is motivated by the focal problem of practice or policy\, rather than explicitly motivating the paper by this call for papers. Authors may include an endnote in the introduction that cites the study in which the motivating managerial implication was published. \n\n\n\nWe intend to host a Paper Development Workshop (PDW) at the AOM 2026 Conference in Philadelphia for selected authors to further develop their manuscripts. Participation in this workshop is neither a guarantee nor a prerequisite for publication. Please direct any inquires to Mike Barnett\, AMP Editor-in-Chief. \n\n\n\nDeadline\, Submission\, and Review Process\n\n\n\nThe deadline for submission is 31 January 2027 at 23:59 ET (DST+1\,UTC-4). All submissions must be uploaded to the AMP Manuscript Central website between 1 January and 31 January 2027.  \n\n\n\nAll papers will be reviewed according to the current policies of Academy of Management Perspectives. AMP papers should be grounded in evidence or robust conceptual frameworks\, address relevant real-world managerial and policy issues\, offer actionable insights\, avoid theory fetish\, and be written in a style accessible to non-specialists and practitioners. \n\n\n\nReference\n\n\n\nM.
