Abstract:
In this workshop, we will focus on how to publish qualitative entrepreneurship research in leading journals. Taking the paper 鈥淭he Art of the Pivot鈥� (AMJ, 2020) as a starting point, we will take a behind-the-scenes look at the publication journey and explore key lessons for publishing such research. We will discuss practical, theoretical and methodological considerations for this. Participants will have plenty of opportunity to ask questions and explore their ideas further. If you can, please skim the paper below in order to get the most out of the workshop.
