Call for Papers
The conference location, Newfoundland and Labrador, has
a rich history of exploration. It is not surprising that
Newfoundland (as the name implies (New Found Land)) was
among the first places to be visited by European
explorers over 500 years ago as well as by the Vikings
near 1000AD. Our conference theme, Exploring the New
World of Work, builds on our exploration heritage and is
appropriate given the demographic, technological,
ethical, cross-cultural and legal changes occurring in
modern organizations.
We invite you to join us in St. John’s to dialogue,
debate, and ponder the New World of Work, with your
colleagues in a stimulating and congenial setting. We
are certain that the natural beauty of the City, and its
rich cultural heritage, will provide a vibrant backdrop
for this conference.
Paper Submission
- Original papers, written in English or French, should be
submitted electronically to the appropriate ASAC
division in Microsoft Word. All contributions will be
peer reviewed, and selected papers will be included in
the Proceedings.
- Papers must conform to the
ASAC Typing Style
Guide (which follows APA, 6th edition) and must not
exceed thirty (30) double-spaced pages (use Times New
Roman 11), including the title of the paper, abstract
(maximum 50 words), all footnotes and endnotes, all
tables, figures, and appendices but excluding
references. No author information should
be included in the paper to ensure blind review.
- All papers must be submitted using Easychair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=asac2012)
no later than February 15, 2012. Late submissions will
not be accepted.
-
Submissions
must be made to a single ASAC 2012 Program Track
- By submitting a paper, authors are committing to the
following ASAC conference policies:
- The submitted paper – in whole or in part - has not been
published or presented elsewhere and/or is not under
consideration for presentation at another conference.
- Once the paper has been submitted, no changes to
authorship are permitted.
- To be considered for a Best Student Paper award, papers
must be authored solely by students.
- At least one author will register for the conference by
May 1st. In the absence of this registration, the paper
will be removed from the divisional program, the
proceedings (if applicable), and consideration for any
divisional awards.
- At least one author of a submitted paper will present
their paper, should it be accepted. “Substitute”
presenters who are not co-authors of the originally
submitted papers are not permitted.
- Authors may not submit the same
paper or substantially the same paper to
more than one division.
- Individuals may be
associated with a maximum of three submissions to the
entire conference (whether these are case studies,
papers, and/or symposium proposals,). This rule is
intended to: (a) reduce scheduling conflicts in the
program; and (b) encourage participation from a broader
cross section of the membership. A person who agrees to
be listed on more than three submissions puts all of
those submissions at risk of being dropped from the
program.
Cases
- Business professors, for both
research and teaching purposes, have
extensively used case writing and case
discussion in class. Authors of
empirical (not fictional) cases with a
clear decision focus relevant for
undergraduate or graduate programs are
invited to submit their case study and
an accompanying teaching note via the
conference webpage
http://www.busi.mun.ca/asac2012 no
later than February 15, 2012. The same
requirements and blind review procedures
apply as for submissions to the regular
research track. Awards, recognizing the
best cases submitted, will be presented
at the conference. More information
about the Case Track can be found at
http://www.busi.mun.ca/asac2012 .
Symposia and Workshops
- Members interested in organizing
a symposium or workshop should prepare a detailed
description of its overall purpose and the specific role
of each participant and submit it via the conference
webpage http://www.busi.mun.ca/asac2012/ no later than
February 15, 2012. The same quality requirements and
blind review procedures apply as for paper submissions.
Symposium proposals can be jointly submitted to up to
three divisions. However, the names of all the divisions
must be noted in the symposium proposal. This permits
the divisional officers to co-ordinate their program
development efforts if a symposium proposal is accepted.
