Call for Papers

The 16th annual World Business Congress of the International Management Development Association (IMDA) will be held in Maastricht, The Netherlands from July 4-8, 2007, and is organized and hosted jointly by Maastricht School of Management (MsM) and IMDA.

Scholarly papers, panel/special session proposals, and case study exercises for presentation and publication in the refereed Congress proceedings are invited. Those on the theme of “Beyond Borders: New Global Management Development Challenges and Opportunities” are most desirable, although all aspects of global business (including advertising and public relations) are of interest. Theoretical, conceptual, and empirical papers, using qualitative and quantitative methodologies, are solicited. Manuscripts submitted must be complete papers, ready for blind review, to be included in the Congress proceedings. A work-in-progress may be reviewed and considered for presentation, even though not published in the Congress proceedings. There will also be a Graduate Student seminar for advanced graduate students to bring their research and have faculty provide useful suggestions.

In addition to sharing scholarship regarding global business issues, the Congress is designed to offer an excellent opportunity to meet colleagues from around the world and exchange information and ideas on a variety of global business development topics.
