Objective

ICGS and CGIR’s mission is to improve the quality and relevance of international corporate governance

(CG) research. The purpose of the consortium and PDW is to provide junior scholars with developmental

feedback on their research papers in the field of CG. We are soliciting doctoral students and junior faculty

members – from any discipline (e.g., accounting, finance, organization, strategy) and any country – to

submit an original paper on CG.

Program

The Consortium and PDW are divided in two parts. For the first part, CGIR Editors will meet individually

with two authors at a mutually agreed time virtually or in person and provide feedback on how to improve

their papers, so to increase the probability of acceptance by CGIR or other CG journals. For the second

part, the CGIR Editors-in-Chief and Senior Editors will present the journal’s mission and scope, the key

statistics on submissions and acceptance rate, and the editorial review process. The second part will be

held in person at University of Miami. This will be followed by a question-and-answer session with the

editorial team. At the end of the PDW, there will be the possibility to have informal conversations with

the Editors-in-Chief, Editors and Editorial Board Members of CGIR so to learn the nuances of successful

publication strategies.

Application process

Each applicant may submit only one paper, which may or may not also be scheduled to be presented

later in the conference. Submitted papers must be less than 10,000 words in length, include an abstract,

up to five keywords, and follow the CGIR author guidelines. Papers should be submitted via ConfTool at

https://www.conftool.net/icgs2022/ using Track G. The deadline for submissions is September 15th,

2022.

Submitters will be notified whether they can participate in the event by October 1st, 2022 and are asked

to confirm their participation by October 7th, 2022. Authors will need to register for the 8th ICGS

conference in order to participate in the event.
