Management &amp; Organisation, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU), The Netherlands.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The EURAM conference <a href=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2027conference\/theme\/\"><strong>theme<\/strong><\/a> is<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\u201c<strong>Rising Above: Embracing Resilience, Reimagining History, and Rethinking Management for a Sustainable Future&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Contemporary management research stands at a turning point. Many dominant theories of organisations, leadership, and governance were built on assumptions of stability, growth, and control\u2014assumptions increasingly challenged by ecological crisis, social inequality, geopolitical instability, and rapid technological change. While management scholarship has advanced efficiency and value creation, it has paid less attention to resilience, historical responsibility, and long-term sustainability. The task now is not simply to refine existing models, but to rethink the foundations of management theory.<\/p>\n<p>The theme of the European Academy of Management (EURAM) Conference 2027, \u201cRising Above,\u201d responds to this need. It invites scholars and practitioners to question inherited assumptions and imagine new ways to organise and lead amid persistent uncertainty. \u201cRising Above\u201d is not about optimism alone, but about transcending conceptual limits that constrain how management engages with today\u2019s grand challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands offers a powerful metaphor. Living largely below sea level, Dutch society has long faced water as both a threat and an opportunity. Through collective ingenuity\u2014building dikes, reclaiming land, and pioneering advanced water management\u2014it has demonstrated resilience as an ongoing, socially embedded process. This example inspires three interconnected priorities: embracing resilience, reimagining history, and leading toward sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>First, resilience means the capacity to adapt, innovate, and act decisively in crisis. As disruption becomes the norm, organisations must move beyond incremental change toward bold approaches to governance and leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Second, \u201cRising Above\u201d calls for critical engagement with history. Management theories and practices reflect past power structures, including colonial extraction and exclusionary systems. Addressing these legacies is essential to aligning economic performance with ethical responsibility and inclusion.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the theme underscores sustainability. As climate change intensifies, traditional business models fall short. Management must be understood not merely as technical expertise but as a moral and political practice that shapes regenerative, just, and sustainable futures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-1292673648724923439text-build-content\">We welcome scholars to submit their research to the EURAM 2027 Conference and we look forward to seeing you in Amsterdam.\u00a0<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"m_-1292673648724923439text-build-content\" style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>To submit your full paper to EURAM 2027<\/strong><u><\/u><\/h3>\n<p>I.

New format at EURAM 2027<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The EURAM Conference is all about <strong>community, networking, and inclusivity<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>A new format will be available at the EURAM 2027 conference, making full use of both paper session formats. Alongside Competitive Paper Sessions (CPS), track chairs could assign extra papers that would otherwise be rejected to <strong>Paper Development Sessions (PDS)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Papers presented at the conference are placed by track chairs into one of two session types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Competitive Paper Session (CPS), <\/strong>traditional formal presentation of three papers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paper Development Session (PDS),<\/strong> no formal presentation, discussion-based sessions of four to six papers.

AI-assisted screening for paper submissions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>EURAM will be utilising a generative AI screening tool, developed by the University of Agder, to screen the submitted papers. <strong>Important clarifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Limited scope:<\/strong> The AI tool is used exclusively for technical screening of compliance with the <a href=\"..\/authors-guidelines-for-full-papers\/\">authors&#8217; guidelines<\/a>, e.g., page count, font, and anonymity. It does <strong>by no means<\/strong> assess the academic quality, merit, or content of the authors\u2019 research.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data security and copyright protection:<\/strong> The AI tool operates as a proprietary, closed-source system developed by the University of Agder, meaning submissions are processed in a secure, private environment. The authors\u2019 research content is <strong>not shared<\/strong> with public AI models, incorporated into any training datasets, or exposed to the public domain. The authors\u2019 intellectual property and copyright remain fully protected throughout the screening and reviewing process. Additionally, all papers uploaded to the AI screening tool are <strong>permanently destroyed<\/strong> immediately <strong>following the completion of the screening proces<\/strong>s.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Human oversight guaranteed<\/strong>: Any submission flagged by the AI tool for <strong>potential non-compliance<\/strong> will be manually (re)screened by a <strong>member of the conference local team<\/strong> to verify the assessment before any action is taken. Primary authors will then be contacted by EURAM HQ to edit their papers as needed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>No automated desk rejections<\/strong>: The AI screening tool does <strong>not make final decisions<\/strong> about the<strong> desk rejection of papers<\/strong> that have not been brought into compliance with the authors\u2019 guidelines, following a series of warning messages sent to the primary author by EURAM HQ. The <strong>final decision-making<\/strong> about the desk rejection of papers remains <strong>entirely in the hands of human screeners<\/strong> and the EURAM 2026 Congress Programme Committee.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Why is the preliminary screening of papers important<\/strong> The preliminary screening of papers against the <a href=\"..\/authors-guidelines-for-full-papers\/\">authors&#8217; guidelines<\/a> ensures that reviewers can concentrate on evaluating the academic quality and contribution of the authors\u2019 research. It also helps ensure consistency in applying formatting guidelines while reducing administrative processing time. Should you have any questions or concerns about this process, please do not hesitate to contact us at <a href=\"mailto:info@euram.academy\">info@euram.academy<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>VI. Blind, peer reviewing of papers<\/strong> The double blind, peer review process for evaluating the scientific contribution and quality of the authors\u2019 work remains <strong>completely human-driven,<\/strong> following established EURAM academic standards. The <strong>use of AI<\/strong> or Large Language Models (LLM) tools to review papers from an academic standpoint submitted to the EURAM conference<strong> is totally prohibited,<\/strong> as it would jeopardise the confidentiality of the peer-review process, which is a cornerstone of the academic system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Reviewers must not use AI tools to generate their review reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>VII. Decision making and final status of papers<\/strong> <strong>SIG and Track chairs<\/strong> are tasked with <strong>allocating a final status (accept or reject) to each reviewed pape<\/strong>r based on the comments provided by the reviewers. EURAM HQ will then send out the notification email to all authors and co-authors. Should you have any hesitation on which track to select for your paper, you may wish to\u00a0<a href=\"..\/strategic-interest-groups\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=it&amp;q=http:\/\/xzq1z.mjt.lu\/lnk\/AbkAAIWI_2AAAAAAAAAAAKit5cEAAYCrSKIAAAAAABJ1hgBoyr08D_2Sz0fPT1-Yo_k2XUcg-gASddo\/19\/4-06Vo_1pj02uYzkISSj1A\/aHR0cHM6Ly9jb25mZXJlbmNlcy5ldXJhbS5hY2FkZW15LzIwMjZjb25mZXJlbmNlL3N0cmF0ZWdpYy1pbnRlcmVzdC1ncm91cHMv&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1758731343185000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1mmTrL7mBNFoUaNsVBGllm\">contact a track chair by email\u00a0<\/a>to find the best fit for your submission.<\/p>\n<p>EURAM and UiA will evaluate the effectiveness of the AI tool used for paper screening at the end of this process to determine whether it &#8211; or a similar tool &#8211; will be implemented for future conferences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VIII. European Management Review \u2013 Professional Development Workshop\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Under the auspices of the EURAM Vice-President for Research, and with the support of the EURAM Vice-President for SIGs and the SIG Chairs, <em>European Management Review<\/em>\u00a0(EMR) is launching a PDW that will be held at the EURAM 2026 conference.<\/p>\n<p>The PDW will be structured in one-to-one colloquia between one EMR Editor and the author(s) of conference papers selected by SIGs for either the \u2018best paper\u2019 award or the \u2018most inspirational paper\u2019 award. Each EMR editor will engage with the authors of maximum four papers in a roundtable format in a designated slot at the conference.<\/p>\n<p>The PDW aims to offer EURAM members an additional service to help authors improve their papers before the initiation of a submission and review process at a journal. Direct discussions with a journal editor can be of much value for improving the quality of the research reported in a paper. In addition, should the author(s) of a paper submit their work to EMR after incorporating the developmental feedback from the designated editor at the PDW, EMR commits to entering the paper into the formal review process (i.e., no desk reject) at the journal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Procedure for participating<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Upon acceptance of your paper for the conference, when asked to confirm your presence at the conference, you will have opportunity to indicate whether you wish to participate in the PDW should your paper be identified as best\/inspirational paper by your SIG and the SIG chair nominates it for the PDW.<\/p>\n<p>Best wishes,<\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-1292673648724923439text-build-content\"><u><\/u><u><\/u>On behalf of the Local Organising Committee,<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-1292673648724923439text-build-content\"><strong>David P.
