Understanding the distinctive focus of the main management education journals is vital in enabling potential authors decide the most appropriate outlet for their manuscript. Journals in this field are characterised by different methodological, philosophical, theoretical and practical orientations and traditions. Authors are therefore more likely to find success with publishing their work if they understand the background of each journal and how they might engage with previously published work. Understanding also entails appreciation of the topics and areas where journal editors, reviewers and readers have an interest in seeing further research develop, and how work in these traditions is shaped for successful publication. This workshop will help scholars to position their work thoughtfully in the overlapping spaces occupied by the different management learning and education journals, through highlighting key success (and failure!) criteria, and helping participants learn from successfully published examplar papers.
