Call for Papers

IBAM welcomes you! Whether you are a veteran researcher, management consultant practitioner, student, or new faculty member, there is a place for you in the Institute of Behavioral and Applied Management. We encourage newcomers and those with experience alike to participate in informative, lively and engaging sessions. IBAM offers a friendly, collegial atmosphere to present your research, receive helpful feedback, and move your work toward publication. IBAM provides helpful reviews, career development workshops, and a respectful approach to academic rigor.

Join us on the campus of San Jose State University in the heart of Silicon Valley for our 26th IBAM conference. Lodging will be provided on the SJSU campus at $230 for all three nights, likely much less expensive than local hotels. We will also publish a list of local hotels that have been recommended to us as the conference approaches.

Participate as a presenter, reviewer, session chair, discussant, volunteer, or division chair. IBAM welcomes management educators, business practitioners, and students to share their ideas, research, and experiences in a friendly and supportive environment. Session discussions are stimulating, informative, and broad-based. 

​

IBAM warmly welcomes you as an individual and a colleague. Executives, managers, professionals, and students are all members and active participants in IBAM’s annual conferences. IBM conferences have something for everyone!

Review To become an IBAM reviewer, contact the program chair, Mary Pisnar. IBAM seeks serious reviewers who will commit to providing a thorough review of academic and practitioner work within their fields.  We ask that you commit to review no more than three (3) submissions and that you commit to a 2-3 week turnaround of submission that you are assigned.  We value your expertise and time.

Submit your original paper, symposium, workshop, or idea incubator proposal for anonymous peer review into our reviewing portal at ScholasticaHQ. The IBAM conference is an excellent outlet for completed research, work-in-progress, and the sharing of experiences in a variety of management sub-fields through refereed paper sessions, symposia, workshops, and panel discussions.

Consider one of these categories of submission – one is sure to fit your research!

Full Paper

A completed paper that is being considered for publication.  It might be a work in progress, work for which you are still collecting developmental feedback.  It might also be a “bottom drawer” paper you are trying to revive. All full papers will be automatically considered for best paper awards. 

Student Papers

A subcategory of “Full Papers” is a student paper. One author (ideally the first author) must be a student and must attend. Undergraduate, Masters, and Doctoral learners are welcome. “Best Student Paper” award(s) will be selected from this category. Sponsoring faculty members should encourage institutional or private support of students whose papers are accepted. Submissions should include a statement that the student will attend the conference.

Symposia or Workshop

Either panel or presenter format. Proposals that cross disciplines and include multiple institutions are highly encouraged. A panel or workshop presentation is allotted extended time on the program, so the proposal should be well-detailed and show potential added value for conference attendees. Submissions should include a 3-5 page proposal and a statement that all contributors intend to register for and attend the conference.

Symposia and workshops are not double-blind reviewed, but are selected by the Program Chair for inclusion in the program. All authors involved in developing accepted symposia and workshops should plan to attend the conference as presenters.

Idea Incubator

A research idea that is still being “kicked around.” At a minimum, idea incubators should have a literature review, hypotheses or research questions, and some idea of methodology.  Idea incubators will be placed into their own sessions to allow feedback from peers in a more informal setting.

Submission Guidelines

1. All submissions must be entirely original and may not be under concurrent consideration or accepted for presentation elsewhere. You may submit up to two papers and/or proposals in any or all of the divisions.  This includes papers and proposals that are co-authored.

2. Submissions should be double-spaced with one-inch margins, typed in a 12-point font, and follow APA format. All submissions should reflect appropriate academic research form and include three keywords, as well as a 75-word abstract. Indicate the IBAM division to which you are making the submission. IBAM divisions are as follows:

   • Division 1:  Human Resource Management

   • Division 2:  Organizational Behavior

   • Division 3:  Strategic and Global Management

   • Division 4:  Management Education and Pedagogy

   • Division 5:  Student Papers

3. Guidelines by submission type:

   1. Full Papers  should not exceed 30 pages (total – including references). 

   2. Symposia & Workshop Proposals  should submit a three to five-page proposal outlining details of the symposia or workshop presentation, along with a statement that all presenters intend to register for the conference.

   3. Idea Incubator Sessions should have a draft paper including literature review, hypotheses or research questions, and some discussion of methodology

4. Paper Submission Deadline:  May 17, 2019. Submit your paper, proposal, or summary by uploading it into the IBAM Conference submissions page at ScholasticaHQ and following the instructions for submissions located at that site. Submission acceptance decisions will be made by June 30, 2019

5. Author Information:  Do not include author information. Author information will be recorded on the submission page at the Scholastica site. The uploaded document should be free of any identifying author indications and the document “Properties” data should be cleared as well. All submissions are double blind-reviewed. Preparation of your title page should include:

   1. The title of your submission

   2. The submission type: Full Paper, Symposia, Workshop, or Idea Incubator. Student papers should also indicate “Student” on the title page

   3. The division to which you are submitting (Divisions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or Special Topics)

6. Submission Process: Follow the link to the IBAM submission page at ScholasticaHQ.  Note that there is a $20.00 fee per submission. At the beginning of your abstract, you should note the type of submission (paper, symposia, or incubator). If we do not see that designation, we will assume it is a full paper and referee it accordingly.

7. Register: All accepted program participants must register and attend the conference. Early registration fees ($340.00 or $265.00) must be paid by June 30, 2019, and cannot be returned after this date for any reason. Your conference registration fee covers annual IBAM membership, all meals (except Friday night), snacks and gratuities. Your registration fee does not cover the cost of lodging (residential housing or hotel) or transportation to and from the conference. Register early as fees increase to $390.00 for practitioners and faculty ($315 for students) after June 30, 2019.

8. Transportation and Lodging: Lodging will be available on the SJSU campus as previously noted for $230 for all three nights.  Register​ for SJSU housing here.  There are also hotels near the university from $300-$400 per night.  Here is a list of hotels nearby.  San Jose is served by the San Fransisco Airport (SFO) and the San Jose Airport (SJC).  Here are two options for driving directions if you are flying into San Francisco: Option 1 and Option 2. If you are flying into San Jose airport, here are driving directions. There is a public transportation option to the campus.  There is also a public rail system that connects SJSU with surrounding communities such as Mountain View.

9. Campus Map and Parking: The conference will be held in the Boccardo Business Classrooms at the School of Global Innovation and Leadership, Lucas College and Graduate School of Business. Check-in and Registration will be in BBC #105.

Best Papers are Eligible for JBAM Consideration and Journal Publication

The Best Papers in each Division are eligible for publication consideration in the Journal of Behavioral and Applied Management (JBAM). The journal provides an international outlet for its contributors and is published three times per year. To learn more about our journal, click here.

Student Scholarships Awarded    

In support of student scholars, IBAM may award a $250 best paper scholarship in its student classifications. In addition, a special student rate applies for conference registration. A student must declare (check box) student status at time of submission. Eligible papers may be co-authored with a faculty member, but the student must be first author, attend the conference and must present the paper. Faculty sponsors should inform students of conference costs and encourage institutional or personal support of attendance. Student scholarships will be presented with the award at the conference award luncheon.
