The Organization Theory (OT) Winter Workshop is aimed at organization and management researchers who wish to write high quality and impactful theoretical papers for journal publication, and who consider Organization Theory as a potential outlet.

The workshop will offer detailed coaching and hands-on feedback sessions on participants’ papers as well as plenary sessions by members of the Organization Theory editorial team on key aspects of developing and writing theory (e.g., developing a theory contribution, construct clarity, genres of theory writing).

This will be the 4th edition of our annual workshop that brings together organization and management scholars, the editors of Organization Theory, and senior academics with experience in writing theory papers as additional facilitators and mentors.

The submission system for the OT Winter Workshop is already open where you can find a dedicated link on our website (www.ot-workshop.com). We encourage both seasoned scholars as well as researchers in earlier stages of their careers to submit conceptual papers to be considered for this workshop. We are open to all theoretical perspectives, including those from outside the ‘mainstream’, and are keen to support the development of papers that are currently not under review. Please note that empirical papers (those with theorizing based on data) will NOT be accepted.

Our workshop will be face-to-face and will take place on the premises of the University of Innsbruck, hosted by the Department of Organization and Learning.

The best papers from the workshop will be considered for publication in Organization Theory through a fast-track review process.
