A structured guide for academic researchers to scope and sanity-check research ideas for top-tier management journals like the Academy of Management Journal (AMJ). It ensures the topic is theory-driven, empirically feasible, and addresses a theoretical tension, helping authors elevate a vague idea into a publishable, impactful scholarly question.

This comprehensive checklist guides authors submitting theory-only manuscripts to the Academy of Management Review (AMR). It ensures compliance with AOM formatting, rigorous anonymity standards, correct scope definition (must build new theory, no data), and ethical guidelines, minimizing desk rejection risk. It is designed for conceptual, non-empirical work.

A comprehensive skill designed to guide users in positioning and revising academic manuscripts for specific high-level management journals, such as the Business Management Journal. It provides detailed heuristics on journal scope, theoretical contribution, methodological rigor, recommended structure, and common rejection pitfalls, helping authors refine their work for target academic venues.

This guide helps academic researchers scope their research questions and determine the appropriate contribution type (empirical paper, meta-analysis, or systematic review) for top-tier general management journals. It teaches authors how to ensure their work has a broad, general-management theoretical contribution rather than being too niche, and how to strategically compare fit against competing academic journals.

A guide for authors submitting to top-tier management journals (like JMS). It teaches how to crystallize raw research findings into a single, powerful, one-sentence theoretical contribution claim. This framework ensures the paper clearly defines what theoretical conversation it engages, what prior understanding it revises, and under what scope conditions, moving beyond simple results reporting.

A comprehensive guide designed to help researchers target specific academic journals, using the Central University of Finance and Economics (CUFE) Journal as a primary example. It provides deep insights into the journal's scope, required structure, common acceptance criteria, and high-risk rejection areas for economics and management manuscripts. This skill helps users frame, revise, and optimize their papers for optimal publication fit.

This skill guide is designed for researchers and academics submitting manuscripts to specialized journals in economics and management. It helps users analyze a target journal's specific scope, required theoretical perspectives (e.g., institutional economics, political economy), and structural demands. It provides guidance on manuscript revision, identifying high-risk areas for rejection, and suggesting alternative suitable venues.

A comprehensive academic consulting tool designed for authors in management and organizational behavior. It helps researchers assess the suitability of their manuscript for the Journal of Management (JOM). The skill evaluates topic scope, theoretical contribution, methodological rigor (e.g., meta-analysis, SEM), and adherence to top academic publishing standards. It also provides advice on potential rejection risks and suggests alternative top-tier venues.

This guide provides a comprehensive framework for authors to determine if their research manuscript fits the scope of Production and Operations Management (POM) and which specific department or journal is the best target. It outlines critical criteria, such as identifying a real operational decision, passing the practice-relevance gate, and strategically selecting a single department for submission, helping authors avoid common submission pitfalls.

This specialized skill guides users in assessing whether their Chinese R&D or innovation management manuscript is suitable for submission to the journal Science Research Management. It helps users understand the journal's specific scope, required structure, key evidence types, and common rejection pitfalls, ensuring the work is properly framed for academic publication.

This comprehensive guide helps researchers determine if their academic research question aligns with the scope and criteria of top-tier strategic management journals (e.g., SMJ). It provides a multi-part fit test covering strategic DNA, unit of analysis (firm-level), theoretical stakes, and empirical identification challenges. It guides authors on sharpening their questions and choosing the correct specialized journal (SMJ, SEJ, GSJ).
