In recognition of IACMR's mission, we confer awards for excellence in Chinese management research every two years. Next time, these awards will be conferred at the 2016 IACMR Conference in Hangzhou, China. In this call, we are seeking nominations for IACMR Distinguished Scholarly Contribution Award.

This award is for a senior scholar who has devoted much of his/her career to the study of Chinese management and has made significant contributions to the field in theory, methodology or in explaining the workings of Chinese organizations or organizations in China. This scholar has enhanced the visibility of the Chinese management research in the global research community, advanced the field, and blazed a path for future researchers.
