Call for Papers
The Leadership Quarterly Yearly Review of Leadership (LQYR) for 2008 The Leadership Quarterly seeks to extend the base for the 2008 LQYR manuscripts. We are requesting paper drafts following APA Publication Manual style (approximately 50–75 double-spaced pages in length, including everything) or proposals (not to exceed seven double-spaced pages in length. To prepare these submissions, we recommend that potential authors read carefully the previous six LQYR's, together with the editor's comments (see the last issue of each year). These issues should suggest either follow-up articles to those published earlier or papers/proposals for new topic areas. Potential authors should specify where they see their submission fitting and why it is needed. In addition to its over-all evaluation, each submission will be considered in terms of its potential to provide the basis for a follow-up LQ special issue (such special issues would be rare but, if chosen, would provide a strong linkage with the LQYR). To facilitate this additional special issue consideration, each submission should include a paragraph showing how and why it could lead to a later special issue. Paper/proposal submissions are subject to competitive reviewing with an accept/reject option. Due dates are: ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪
Initial submission January 15, 2008. Accept/reject, revise and resubmit notification March 1. Revise and resubmit to editor May 1. Accept/reject or further revise and resubmit decision notification June 15. Further revise and resubmit to editor August 1. Accept or reject decision notification August 15. All ultimately selected manuscripts to publisher September 1.
