PAoM governor shares her thoughts on research and publishing
PAoM governor Dr. Regina Hechanova attended the Seventh Asia Academy of Management Conference with the theme "Asian Management: Challenges and Opportunities in Turbulent Times". The conference was held in Macau, SAR, China, last December 12-14, 2010 and was hosted by the University of Macau (http://www.baf.cuhk.edu.hk/asia-aom/coming_conference.html). Gina she shares her insights on research and publishing from attending the conference in her paper "So as not to perish" which we share here.
She opens her paper: "In the race to improve rankings and their competitiveness, academic institutions are pushing their students and faculty towards greater research productivity. Publication in journals has become the gold standard. Although academics in Asia continue to debate the wisdom of using this ruler, the reality is that even Asian universities have adopted journal publications as a metric of success. Yet the reality is that only 1 in 10 journals are accepted in top tier journals. How do we dare compete with the rest of the world?"

Doctoral seminar on preparing scholarly papers held
Twelve participants attended the PAoM doctoral seminar on writing a scholarly paper held at the Asian Institute of Management last July 31, 2010. Facilitated by Dr. Ben Teehankee (chair of professional development) and assisted by Dr. Ginny Santiago (chair for research and publications), the seminar covered strategies for organizing information supporting a paper to achieve both relevance and rigour.
Participants from De La Salle University's Doctor of Business Administration Program and Ateneo de Manila's PhD in Leadership Studies and PhD in Psychology learned more efficient methods for sourcing articles from the top journals as well as from relevant local journals, preparing annotations of these articles with the aid of technology tools (Foxit Reader, GoogleDocs, EBSCO database, Wikipedia and Scholar Google), and identifying important research gaps (i.e., theoretical, substantive, empirical and contextual) which call for scholarly contributions from doctoral students.
Participants included the following: From
DLSU: Evelio G. Echavez, Rommel R. Serrano, Pedro P. Benedicto Jr., Enrique Antonio B. Reyes, Ricardo G. Cruz, Jr., and Jenny S. Eizaguirre. From Ateneo: Sr. Marivic A. Galamay, Juanita R. Gueco, Jocelyn M. Nolasco, Raul P. Rodriguez, Noel M. Cortez, and Maria Victoria T. Cortez.
Dr. Santiago invited the participants to submit articles for the forthcoming maiden issue of the Journal of the Philippine Academy of Management. A follow-up writing workshop will be organized by PAoM a few months in the future to provide further support for the aspiring doctorates.
Ben Teehankee explains the importance of diligent appreciation of the scholarly literature, both foreign and local, for good doctoral papers.
Participants try their hand at using Foxit Reader to annotate PDF journal articles.

JPAoM Calls for Papers
The Journal of the Philippine Academy of Management (JPAoM) is currently seeking papers for this new Philippine journal to be launched in March 2011.
Editorial Scope and Objectives
One of the primary objectives of the Philippine Academy of Management (PAoM) is to strengthen the research discipline of its members. To support this objective, the Board of Governors resolved to establish an online journal publication as a venue for scholarly output.
JPAoM publishes:
Empirical Papers
Methodological Papers
Theoretical and Conceptual Papers
Literature Reviews
Teaching Cases for class discussion
In addition to the above categories of articles, the JPAoM also welcomes Brief Research Notes as well as Book Reviews.
The JPAoM will publish in its website, annual issues that will contain between 5 – 10 articles. It shall include at least one invited article per issue.
Editorial Process
Each paper is reviewed by the editor and, if judged suitable for this publication, is then sent to two referees for double blind peer review. We encourage both reviewers and authors to respond quickly in the review process as we intend to meet publication deadlines. More detailed information can be found in the JPAoM Guidelines.
Submit a Paper
Submissions to JPAoM should be addressed to the editor, Dr. Andrea Santiago, at the appropriate section of the PAoM website.
Board approves Journal of the Philippine Academy of Management
The Board of PAoM approved the proposal of Dr. Andrea "Ginny" Santiago, Chair of the Research and Publications Committee, to create the Journal of the Philippine Academy of Management. JPAoM will be an online publication published annually. The first issue will be published in 2011. A Call for Papers will be issued soon.
Ben Teehankee explains the importance of diligent appreciation of the scholarly literature, both foreign and local, for good doctoral papers.
