报告摘要

In management journals, qualitative research has become increasingly important, and mastering these methods is essential for producing high-quality research that can make a real impact. First, I will discuss what qualitative is concerned with exploring and understanding the complexities of human experiences, behaviours, and social phenomena. It emphasises capturing rich and detailed data through methods like interviews, observations, and analysis texts. Qualitative research is often exploratory in nature, seeking to uncover new insights and perspectives. Therefore, formulating open-ended questions that allow for in-depth exploration is vital. Next, it’s important to select the most suitable methods for data collection. This could involve conducting interviews with participants, observing their behaviours in natural settings, or analysing documents and texts. Each method has its strengths, and selecting the right one is essential. Once the data is collected, the process of analysis begins. Qualitative data analysis involves carefully reviewing and interpreting the collected information to identify patterns, themes, and key findings. This can be done through thematic or content analysis. To get published in leading journals like PMJ or IJPM it’s essential to maintain rigor and transparency. Documenting your research decisions, keeping an audit trail of your analysis, and involving multiple researchers for validation and peer review are all ways to enhance the credibility and trustworthiness of your findings.

报告摘要

In today’s academic world, publishing in leading scientific journals requires strong and clear Ontologies, Epistemologies, and theoretical foundations. For example, in project studies, until a few years ago, it was acceptable to submit atheoretical papers to leading journals such as IJPM and PMJ. However, this has changed, and papers without a theoretical basis and clear Ontologies or epistemologies are often desk-rejected. I developed this speech to train authors for success in this changing landscape, using simple words and a lot of examples. Having clear ontologies, epistemologies, and theoretical lenses in social science and management research and publishing ensures conceptual clarity, methodological coherence, and theoretical advancement. It enables researchers to engage in meaningful scholarly dialogue, build upon existing knowledge, and contribute to the development of robust theories and practical implications. Furthermore, transparently communicating these foundational aspects enhances the rigour and credibility of research, allowing other researchers to replicate, critique, and extend the findings, thus facilitating the growth and progress of the respective fields. This speech aims to equip the audience with a clear understanding of Ontologies, Epistemologies, and theoretical lenses. By providing a strong understanding of theory and its applications, students will be well-equipped to produce high-quality research publishable in leading scientific journals.
