CAN YOU PUBLISH PAPERS ON DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY IN ACADEMY OF MANAGEMENT REVIEW? (30 October 2024)

Description

We continue our discussion around theorizing about digital phenomena and publishing conceptual papers. Today, we are joined by Robert Gregory, who has published several theoretical articles on digital technology in Academy of Management Review. He is also an AMR editor for a special issue on AI in management and he heads the Theory section as senior editor in the Journal of the Association for Information Systems. With Robert, we talk about the AMR publishing process, how it is different from mainstream IS journals and what we need to look out for when we generate theory about new digital phenomena.
