Submission Guidelines.

a. Research paper

Extended abstract · within 3,000 words

The word count includes appendix and references, in APA style. Preferred typeface is Times New Roman, 12 pt, single-spaced and justified. The abstract should be easily readable, suitably sectionalised and free of grammatical errors. Submit a Word document.

Ideal sections:

  1. Introduction
  2. Literature review
  3. Data and methodology
  4. Results and discussion
  5. Conclusion and managerial or social implications

b. Conceptual paper, idea in brief, or case study

1,000–1,500 words · no specific format
