Dear Delegate,
Welcome to the Fifteenth International Conference on Knowledge, Culture, and Change in Organizations. This conference will
address knowledge, culture, and change in organizations from a variety of disciplinary perspectives. The conference will offer a
comprehensive overview of current thinking in the area broadly described as knowledge management. Its perspectives will range
from big picture analyses in keynote addresses by internationally recognized experts in the field of management to detailed case
studies of management practice.
This conference now has a truly international record as an intellectual leader in our field. In 2003, the conference was held at the
Universiti Sains Malaysia in Penang, Malaysia; in 2004 at the University of Greenwich, London, UK; in 2005 at the University of
the Aegean on the Island of Rhodes, Greece; in 2006 at the Monash University Centre, Prato, Italy; in 2007 at the Singapore
Management University, Singapore; in 2008 at Cambridge University, UK; in 2009 at Northeastern University, Boston, USA; in
2010 at HEC in Montreal, Canada; in 2011 at the Universidad San Pablo CEU, Madrid, Spain; in 2012 at the University Center in
Chicago, USA; in 2013 at the University of British Columbia–Robson Square, Vancouver, Canada; and in 2014 at the University
of Oxford Said Business School in Oxford, UK. The 2016 conference will be held in Honolulu, USA at the University of Hawaii at
Manoa from 19-20 April.
In addition to organizing the Organization Conference, Common Ground publishes articles from the conference at
www.ontheorganization.com/publications/journal, and we do encourage all conference participants to submit an article based
on their conference presentation for peer review and possible publication in the journal. We also publish books at
www.ontheorganization.com/publications/books in both print and electronic formats.
Thank you to everyone who has prepared for this conference. A personal thank you goes to our Common Ground colleagues
who have put such a significant amount of work into this conference: Rachael Arcario, Monica Hillison, Raquel Jimenez,
Kimberly Kendall, Madison Eddy, and Ana Quintana.
We wish the best for this conference and hope it will provide you every opportunity for dialogue with colleagues from around the
corner and around the world. We hope you will be able to join us in Honolulu for next year’s conference, held 19-20 April 2016.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Phillip Kalantzis-Cope
Director, Common Ground Publishing
Our Mission
Common Ground Publishing aims to enable all people to participate in creating collaborative knowledge and to share that
knowledge with the greater world. Through our academic conferences, peer-reviewed journals and books, and innovative
software, we build transformative knowledge communities and provide platforms for meaningful interactions across diverse
media.
Our Message
Heritage knowledge systems are characterized by vertical separations—of discipline, professional association, institution, and
country. Common Ground identifies some of the pivotal ideas and challenges of our time and builds knowledge communities
that cut horizontally across legacy knowledge structures. Sustainability, diversity, learning, the future of the humanities, the
nature of interdisciplinarity, the place of the arts in society, technology’s connections with knowledge, the changing role of the
university—these are deeply important questions of our time which require interdisciplinary thinking, global conversations, and
cross-institutional intellectual collaborations. Common Ground is a meeting place for these conversations, shared spaces in
which differences can meet and safely connect—differences of perspective, experience, knowledge base, methodology,
geographical or cultural origins, and institutional affiliation. We strive to create the places of intellectual interaction and
imagination that our future deserves.
Our Media
Common Ground creates and supports knowledge communities through a number of mechanisms and media. Annual
conferences are held around the world to connect the global (the international delegates) with the local (academics,
practitioners, and community leaders from the host community). Conference sessions include as many ways of speaking as
possible to encourage each and every participant to engage, interact, and contribute. The journals and book series offer fullyrefereed academic outlets for formalized knowledge, developed through innovative approaches to the processes of submission,
peer review, and production. The knowledge community also maintains an online presence—through presentations on our
YouTube channel, monthly email newsletters, as well as Facebook and Twitter feeds. And Common Ground’s own software,
Scholar, offers a path-breaking platform for online discussions and networking, as well as for creating, reviewing, and
disseminating text and multi-media works.
Common Ground España
Since its inception, Common Ground Publishing has been committed to build bridges between different languages and cultures,
crossing the geographical and linguistic boundaries that slow down the free flow of ideas between the countless communities
that populate the planet. We are truly committed to diversity, and that is why we are striving to create synergies between the
English, Spanish and Portuguese-speaking knowledge communities that meet every year at the conference, and that interact
through the scholarly journals, the book series, and the social networks.
To fulfill this ideal, Common Ground Publishing has launched Common Ground Publishing España in order to create and
develop Latin American knowledge communities based on the Spanish and Portuguese languages and cultures, crossing
geographic, linguistic and cultural borders. Each of these knowledge communities holds an annual academic conference (which
takes place in parallel to Common Ground's conferences in English) and manages a peer reviewed scholarly journal, a book
series and a number of social networks that allow scholars and practitioners to interact with other peers coming from different
geographical, institutional and cultural origins, as well as to strengthen interdisciplinary discussions.
For the time being, Common Ground Publishing España, whose headquarters are located at the Research Park of the
Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, has developed 10 Latin American knowledge communities. These include Learning, ELearning and Innovative Pedagogies, Science in Society, Interdisciplinary Social Sciences, On the Organization, New Directions
in the Humanities, The Image, Books, Publishing and Libraries, Health, Wellness and Society, and Technology, Knowledge and
Society.
ON THE ORGANIZATION KNOWLEDGE COMMUNITY
The On The Organization knowledge community is dedicated to the concept of independent, peer-led groups of scholars,
researchers, and practitioners working together to build bodies of academic knowledge related to topics of critical importance to
society at large. Focusing on the intersection of academia and social impact, the On The Organization knowledge community
brings and interdisciplinary, international perspective to discussions of new developments in the field, including research,
practice, policy, and teaching.

2015 Special Focus – Productive Diversity: The Dynamics of Organizational Cultures
Diversity manifests itself in organizations in a myriad of ways—the diversity of human resources within an organization, diversity
among clienteles, diversity of divisional or occupational cultures, and diversity when meeting other organizational cultures—be
they private, public, or other community organizations. In the twentieth century, the prevailing assumption was that
organizational cultures based on sameness or alignment would inevitably work best. In the twenty-first century, globalization and
civil rights movements that focus on human differences mean that such assumptions are no longer tenable. In fact, they may
well be counter-productive, hence the notion of “productive diversity”.
Scope and Concerns
Organizational Intangibles and their Tangible Value
The focus of this knowledge community is to explore those intangible drivers which determine not only the livability of
organizations for insiders, and their credibility and attraction to outsiders;. They also impact tangible results in the form of
efficiency, effectiveness and productivity. The intangibles of knowledge, culture and change management do not appear on
balance sheets, but ultimately do have an enormous impact on ‘bottom lines’.
Our interests range across organizations in all their forms and manifestations: businesses, from micro-enterprises to
multinational corporations; institutions of formal learning, from schools to universities; public sector agencies; and nongovernment and community sector organizations. Our concern also extends beyond the boundaries of organizations to consider
the dynamics of supply chains, organizational alliances, networks, communities of practice and capacity building.
The organizational story may be different from situation to situation. However, across all of these contexts, a pragmatic focus
persists—to examine the ‘organization’ and ‘management’ of groups of people collaborating to productive ends, and to analyze
what makes for success and sustainability.
Knowledge Economy
Ours is the era of the ‘knowledge economy’, or so say the commentators. (It seems a little late to be calling it a ‘new’ economy,
particularly when some of the things that only yesterday were supposed to be excitingly ‘new’ have become essentials or
commonplaces today.)
What might it mean to have a knowledge economy? Contemporary economies are increasingly dependent upon technologies
which assist the flow of information. The value of an organization is also increasingly located in intangibles such as business
systems, intellectual property and the human skills base. In this sense, knowledge has become a key factor of production. And
human needs have been transformed to the point where, in the marketplace, consumers focus on knowledge-representations
as much as they do on physical entities—design, aesthetics, product concepts, brand associations, service values. If anything,
these are the things that make the knowledge economy different from the industrial economy in its time.
Knowledge in Organizations
What, however, is this nebulous thing, knowledge, and how do we manage it? Certainly, it is bigger than out-of-the box IT
systems, or content management systems, or cloud software ensembles—things that are often sold as knowledge management
‘solutions’. To be sure, the new technologies have the capacity to enable and transform. But knowledge is also the stuff of
incessant talk, collaborative working relationships, personalized stories and constant learning. It is, in fact, no less than the core
of human capital.
With or without technology assistance, knowledge management involves transforming personal knowledge into common
knowledge, implicit and individual knowledge into explicit and shared understandings and everyday common sense into
systematic designs. It is also the business of codifying these designs as information architectures, paradigms or disciplines.
Not that this leaves the world of tacit understandings and individual subjectivity behind as a poor cousin to knowledge proper.
On the contrary, herein lies the raw material of inspiration, imagination and creativity. The shape of things has to be felt before it
can be articulated.
It is the project of knowledge management to ensure that collaboration is institutionalized and that knowledge sharing occurs. As
a result, wheels are not needlessly reinvented. Lessons are learned from mistakes, and these lessons shared. The knowledge of
the organization or community is not dangerously depleted when a key person departs. Organizing knowledge creates more
work, to be sure, but the longer term effect of this extra work should be to create less.
Knowledge is the process of connecting the stuff of the mind and the stuff of the world. It is not a recorded thing (data,
information), or at least, it is not just that. Knowledge is a form of action. Knowing might be by experiencing (deep
understandings, intuitions or judgments based on extended immersion in a particular situation), or conceptualizing (knowing the
underlying concepts and theories of a particular discipline, system or vocation), or analyzing (linking cause with effect, interests
with behaviors, purposes with outcomes), or applying (doing something practical again or anew). These are some of the ways in
which knowing is done.
And what does knowing do? For one thing, it creates a different kind of organization. This organization is one in which certain
kinds of knowledge rise to higher levels of validity. This is the knowledge that has been collaboratively constructed, is widely
informed, is cross-referenced — and these processes give it a collegial or organizational imprimatur. This knowledge becomes
authoritative to the extent that the processes of knowledge construction are made transparent. And the unidirectional (topbottom, expert-novice, organization-customer) transmission of knowledge is replaced by knowledge as dialogue.
Culture in Organizations
Ours is an era when organizations are driven by culture, or so today’s management thinkers tell us. This is in direct contrast to
the focus on system and structure in an earlier era when management was considered to be an exact science.
On the micro-scale, teams are driven by shared values—or is it perhaps the complementarity of differences of knowledge and
experience? On the corporate scale, organizations try to enlist employees to their visions and ethos—or is it perhaps a matter of
creating an inclusive space in which everyone’s motivations and energies are enlisted, even if they don’t fit a single obvious
corporate mold? On a market or community scale, organizations try to get close to customers and forge tight supply chain
relationships—or is this really a matter of negotiating the differences that are inherent to a world of ever more finely differentiated
niche markets and subtly or not-so-subtly divergent organizational cultures? And on the macro, global scale, we may find
ourselves operating across one world market—or is it perhaps, a world where, in crossing borders, successful organizations
negotiate differences and become many things to many peoples?
Culture is a key organizational driver, but not because it has a simplistically unifying dynamic — of shared values, singular vision
and cloning to the ideal of the corporate person. The dynamic of effective contemporary organizational cultures, more often than
not, is one of productive diversity. This is not the diversity of affirmative action and remedies for discrimination. Rather it is the
diversity that is at the heart of organizational cultures, including workaday domains such as human resource management,
product and service diversification strategy, sales and marketing into a myriad of niches, and customer relationship management
which recognizes that no two customers are the same.
Change in Organizations
Ours is an era of massive change, sometimes liberating, other times traumatic. Organizations find themselves buffeted by
external forces: technological, market, political and cultural. They are challenged to become ever more efficient, effective,
productive and competitive. How can they be active masters of change rather than reactive servants? How can change in
organizations be driven by their people rather than the organization in the abstract? How can organizations change without their
leaders having to drag along the led?
Organizations will fail if they are not capable of learning, in a collective sense, as well as ensuring the learning growth of the
individuals who spend their days there at work. They will fail if they do not regard themselves as places of continuous personal
and corporate reinvention, of individual and institutional transformation. The organization and every person within it needs to
envision themselves, not as a change object, but as an agent of change.
This conference, journals, book imprint and news blog attempt to address these and other dynamics of knowledge, culture and
change as they manifest themselves in organizations. The perspectives range from big picture analyses to detailed case studies
which speak to the tangible value of organizational intangibles. They traverse a broad terrain, from theory and analysis to
practical strategies for action.

THE ORGANIZATION COLLECTION AND BOOK SERIES
About Our Publishing Approach
For three decades, Common Ground Publishing has been committed to creating meeting places for people and ideas. With 24
knowledge communities, Common Ground’s vision is to provide platforms that bring together individuals of varied geographical,
institutional, and cultural origins in spaces where renowned academic minds and public thought leaders can connect across
fields of study. Each knowledge community organizes an annual academic conference and is associated with a peer-reviewed
journal (or journal collection), a book imprint, and a social media space centered around Common Ground’s pathbreaking ‘social
knowledge’ space, Scholar.
Through its publishing practices, Common Ground aims to foster the highest standards in intellectual excellence. We are highly
critical of the serious deficiencies in today’s academic journal system, including the legacy structures and exclusive networks
that restrict the visibility of emerging scholars and researchers in developing countries, as well as the unsustainable costs and
inefficiencies associated with traditional commercial publishing.
In order to combat these shortcomings, Common Ground has developed an innovative publishing model. Each of Common
Ground’s knowledge communities organizes an annual academic conference. The registration fee that conference participants
pay in order to attend or present at these conferences enables them to submit an article to the associated journal at no
additional cost. Scholars who cannot attend the conference in-person may still participate virtually and submit to the journal by
obtaining a community membership, which also allows them to upload a video presentation to the community’s YouTube
channel. By using a portion of the conference registration and membership fees to underwrite the costs associated with
producing and marketing the journals, Common Ground is able to keep subscription prices low, thus guaranteeing greater
access to our content. All conference participants and community members are also granted a one-year complimentary
electronic subscription to the journal associated with their knowledge community. This subscription provides access to both the
current and past volumes of the journal. Moreover, each article that we publish is available for a $5 download fee to nonsubscribers, and authors have the choice of publishing their paper open access to reach the widest possible audience and
ensure the broadest access possible.
Common Ground’s rigorous peer review process also seeks to address some of the biases inherent in traditional academic
publishing models. Our pool of reviewers draws on authors who have recently submitted to the journal, as well as volunteer
reviewers whose CVs and academic experience have been evaluated by Common Ground’s editorial team. Reviewers are
assigned to articles based on their academic interests and expertise. By enlisting volunteers and other prospective authors as
peer reviewers, Common Ground avoids the drawbacks of relying on a single editor’s professional network, which can often
create a small group of gatekeepers who get to decide who and what gets published. Instead, Common Ground harnesses the
enthusiasm of its conference delegates and prospective journal authors to assess submissions using a criterion-referenced
evaluation system that is at once more democratic and more intellectually rigorous than other models. Common Ground also
recognizes the important work of peer reviewers by acknowledging them as Associate Editors of the volumes to which they
contribute.
For over ten years, Common Ground has been building web-based publishing and social knowledge software where people can
work closely to collaborate, create knowledge, and learn. The third and most recent iteration of this project is the innovative
social knowledge environment, Scholar. Through the creation of this software, Common Ground has sought to tackle what it
sees as changing technological, economic, distributional, geographic, interdisciplinary and social relations to knowledge. For
more information about this change and what it means for academic publishing, refer to The Future of the Academic Journal,
edited by Bill Cope and Angus Phillips (Elsevier 2009).
We hope that you will join us in creating dialogues between different perspectives, experiences, knowledge bases, and
methodologies through interactions at the conference, conversations online, and as fully realized, peer-reviewed journal articles
and books.

“Cultural Factors Affecting International Teamwork Dynamics and Effectiveness”
Abstract
The globalization of markets and demographic changes in many countries has created a situation that some see as a
problem, and others see as an opportunity: multinational teams working together to manage projects, create ideas, solve
problems, make decisions, and more. This study explores cultural factors affecting international team dynamics and
effectiveness. In-depth interviews were conducted with 27 individuals who held management or supervisory positions,
worked on multinational teams, and spend time working abroad. Their companies represent a broad range of industries
such as energy, telecommunications/technology, engineering, architecture, mass media, venture capital, food
import/purchasing, and museum exhibition. Collectively, these individuals worked on teams in several dozen countries in
Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, North and South America, as well as Australia and New Zealand. The results explore a
variety of cultural paradoxes and dialectics, complexities and differences which affect many aspects of collaborative work.
The importance of relationship building, personal validations of “self” (identity), and ways power is manifested (including use
of food) are discussed. Unfortunately, despite decades of learning about and experience with cultural diversity, international
work groups continue to be plagued by ethnocentrism, prejudices, and stereotypes. Recommendations for improving
international team culture dynamics are therefore offered.

Once your conference proposal or paper abstract has been accepted, you may submit your article to the journal by
clicking “add a paper” from your proposal/abstract page. You may upload your article anytime between the first and
the final submission deadlines, which can be found on the next page.
3.
Once your article is received, it is verified against template and submission requirements. Your identity and contact
details are then removed, and the article is matched to two appropriate reviewers and sent for review. You can view the
status of your article at any time by logging into your CGPublisher account at www.CGPublisher.com.
4.
When reviewer reports are uploaded, you will be notified by email and provided with a link to view the reports (after the
reviewers’ identities have been removed).
5.
If your article has been accepted, you will be asked to accept the Publishing Agreement and submit a final copy of your
article. If your paper is accepted with revisions, you will be asked to submit a change note with your final submission,
explaining how you revised your article in light of the reviewers’ comments. If your article is rejected, you may resubmit
it once, with a detailed change note, for review by new reviewers.
6.
Accepted articles will be typeset and the proofs will be sent to you for approval before publication.
7.
Individual articles may be published online first with a full citation. Full issues follow at regular, quarterly intervals. All
issues are published 4 times per volume (except the annual review, which is published once per volume).
8.
Registered conference participants will be given online access to the journal from the time of registration until one year
after the conference end date. Individual articles are available for purchase from the journal’s bookstore. Authors and
peer reviewers may order hard copies of full issues at a discounted rate.
SUBMISSION TIMELINE
The timeline for deadlines of Volume 15 are as follows:
1.
April 15, 2015
2.
July 15, 2015
3.
October 15, 2015
Note: Please feel free to submit at any time. If your article is submitted after the deadline for Volume 15, it will be considered for
Volume 16. However, the sooner you submit, the sooner your article will begin the peer review process. Also, as we publish
“online-first,” early submission will mean that your article will be published as soon as it is ready, even if that is before the full
issue is published.

JOURNAL SUBSCRIPTIONS, OPEN ACCESS, ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Institutional Subscriptions
Common Ground offers print and electronic subscriptions to all of its journals. Subscriptions are available to the full collection
and to custom suites based on a given institution’s unique content needs. Subscription prices are based on a tiered scale that
corresponds to the full-time enrollment (FTE) of the subscribing institution. You may use the Library Recommendation form in the
back of this pamphlet to recommend that your institution subscribe to the Organization Collection.
Personal Subscriptions
As part of their conference registration, all conference participants (both community membership and in-person) have a one-year
online subscription to the Organization Collection. This complimentary personal subscription grants access to both the current
volume of the collection as well as the entire backlist. The period of complimentary access begins at the time of registration and
ends one year after the close of the conference. After that time, delegates may purchase a personal subscription. To view
articles, go to http://ijm.cgpublisher.com/. Select the “Login” option and provide a CGPublisher username and password. Then,
select an article and download the PDF. For lost or forgotten login details, select “forgot your login” to request a new password.
For more information, please visit:
http://ontheorganization.com/publications/journal/subscriptions-and-orders or contact us at
[email protected].
Hybrid Open Access
The journals in the Organization Collection are Hybrid Open Access. Hybrid Open Access is an option increasingly offered by
both university presses and well-known commercial publishers.
Hybrid Open Access means that some articles are available only to subscribers, while others are made available at no charge to
anyone searching the web. Authors pay an additional fee for the open access option. They may do this because open access is
a requirement of their research funding agency. Or they may do it so that non-subscribers can access their article for free.
Common Ground’s open access charge is $250 per article, a very reasonable price compared to our hybrid open access
competitors and purely open access journals that are resourced with an author publication fee. Electronic papers are normally
only available through individual or institutional subscriptions or for purchase at $5 per article. However, if you choose to make
your article Open Access, this means that anyone on the web may download it for free.
There are still considerable benefits for paying subscribers, because they can access all articles in the journal, from both current
and past volumes, without any restrictions. But making your paper available at no charge increases its visibility, accessibility,
potential readership, and citation counts. Open access articles also generate higher citation counts.
For more information or to make your article Open Access, please contact us at [email protected].
Institutional Open Access
Common Ground is proud to announce an exciting new model of scholarly publishing called Institutional Open Access.
Institutional Open Access allows faculty and graduate students to submit articles to Common Ground journals for unrestricted
open access publication. These articles will be freely and publicly available to the whole world through our hybrid open access
infrastructure. With Institutional Open Access, instead of the author paying a per-article open access fee, institutions pay a set
annual fee that entitles their students and faculty to publish a given number of open access articles each year.
The rights to the articles remain with the subscribing institution. Both the author and the institution can also share the final
typeset version of the article in any place they wish, including institutional repositories, personal websites, and privately or
publicly accessible course materials. We support the highest Sherpa/Romeo access level—Green.
For more information on Institutional Open Access or to put us in touch with your department head or funding body, please
contact us at [email protected].

Acerca de nuestro enfoque editorial
Durante 29 años, Common Ground Publishing se ha comprometido con la creación de lugares de encuentro de personas e
ideas. Con 10 comunidades de conocimiento en español y portugués y 24 comunidades en inglés, la visión de Common
Ground es proveer plataformas que reúnan a personas de diversos orígenes geográficos, institucionales y culturales en
espacios donde académicos y otros profesionales puedan conectar por igual a través de distintos campos interdisciplinares de
estudio. Cada comunidad de conocimiento realiza un congreso académico anual alrededor del mundo y está asociada a una
Revista revisada por pares (o a una colección de Revistas), una colección de Libros y un serie de redes sociales, en torno a un
nuevo “espacio social de conocimiento” realmente disruptivo diseñado y desarrollado por Common Ground: Scholar
(http://cgscholar.com/).
A través de sus servicios editoriales, Common Ground tiene como objetivo fomentar los más altos estándares de excelencia
intelectual. Somos muy críticos con las graves deficiencias que existen en el actual sistema de publicaciones académica,
incluyendo las estructuras existentes y las redes exclusivas que restringen la visibilidad de los académicos e investigadores
emergentes en los países en desarrollo, así como los costes e ineficiencias insostenibles asociados con la edición comercial
tradicional.
Para combatir estas deficiencias, Common Ground ha desarrollado un modelo de publicación innovador. Cada una de las
comunidades de conocimiento de Common Ground organiza un congreso académico anual. La cuota de inscripción que pagan
los participantes del congreso por asistir y presentar en estos congresos, les permite enviar un artículo a la revista (o colección
de revistas) asociada sin coste adicional. Así, los autores pueden realizar una presentación en un congreso científico de su área
de investigación, incorporar las críticas constructivas que reciben en respuesta a su presentación y, a continuación, enviar un
artículo sólido para su revisión por pares, sin que el autor tenga que pagar una tasa adicional. Los académicos que no puedan
asistir al congreso en persona, pueden participar de forma virtual, opción que les permite enviar un artículo a la revista. Usando
una parte de la cuota de inscripción para financiar los costes asociados a la producción y comercialización de las revistas,
Common Ground es capaz de mantener unos precios de suscripción bajos, facilitando así el acceso a todos nuestros
contenidos. Todos los participantes del congreso, tanto presenciales como virtuales, pueden subir sus presentaciones al canal
de YouTube de Common Ground, además de tener una suscripción electrónica gratuita a la revista por un periodo de un año.
Esta suscripción permite el acceso a todos los números, presentes y pasados, de la revista en español/portugués y a la revista
(o colección de revistas) en inglés. Además, cada artículo que publicamos está disponible de forma individual con una tarifa de
descarga de $5 para los no abonados, y los autores disponen de la opción de publicar su artículo en acceso abierto para llegar
así a una mayor audiencia y garantizar la difusión más amplia posible.
El riguroso proceso de revisión de Common Ground trata también de abordar algunos de los sesgos inherentes a los
tradicionales modelos de editoriales académicas. El conjunto de evaluadores está compuesto de autores que han presentado
recientemente artículos a la revista, así como de revisores voluntarios cuyos currículos y experiencia académica han sido
evaluados por el equipo editorial de Common Ground. Los artículos son asignados a revisores en base en sus intereses
académicos y experiencia. Al tener voluntarios y a otros autores como posibles revisores, Common Ground evita los
inconvenientes de depender de la red profesional de un solo editor, que con más frecuencia de la deseable conlleva la creación
de grupos de arbitraje cerrado que deciden qué y quién publica. En cambio, Common Ground aprovecha el excelente talante
de los participantes del congreso y de los autores de las revistas para evaluar los trabajos, utilizando un sistema de evaluación
basado en criterios más democráticos e intelectualmente más rigurosos que otros modelos tradicionales. Common Ground
también reconoce la importante labor de los revisores, nombrándoles Editores Asociados de los volúmenes en los que
contribuyen.
A través de la creación de un software asombrosamente innovador, Common Ground también ha comenzado a hacer frente a
lo que considera como un cambio en las relaciones tecnológicas, económicas, geográficas, interdisciplinarias, sociales y de
distribución y difusión del conocimiento. Desde hace más de diez años hemos estado construyendo una editorial muy mediada
por las tecnologías web y las nueves redes sociales, donde la gente pueda trabajar en estrecha colaboración para aprender,
crear y compartir conocimiento. La tercera y última iteración de este proyecto es un entorno social de conocimiento pionero
llamado Scholar (http://cgscholar.com/). Esta plataforma informática posee un lugar donde los académicos pueden conectarse
en red y dar visibilidad a sus investigaciones a través de una librería personal.
Esperamos que se unan a nosotros en la creación de diálogos entre diferentes perspectivas, experiencias, áreas de
conocimiento y metodologías a través de las interacciones en el seno del congreso, las conversaciones online, los artículos para
la revista o la colección de libros (ambas revisadas por pares).
Revista Internacional de Economía y Gestión de las Organizaciones
La Revista Internacional de Economía y Gestión de las Organizaciones examina la naturaleza de las organizaciones en todas sus
formas y manifestaciones: empresas (desde las pequeñas y medianas empresas hasta las multinacionales), instituciones
educativas (desde preescolar hasta universidades y de formación profesional), organismos y agencias del sector público,
organizaciones no-gubernamentales, política económica, etc. Sus contenidos se extienden también más allá de los límites de
las organizaciones: considera la dinámica de las cadenas de suministro, las alianzas organizativas, los lobbies y las redes
empresariales y de conocimiento, las comunidades de práctica, la innovación, la creación de valor, etc. En medio de todas
estas perspectivas, se mantiene un enfoque pragmático que busca re-examinar las nociones de “organización” y de “gestión”
de grupos de personas que colaboran para fines productivos, y analizar los factores que conducen al éxito y a la sostenibilidad.
Los artículos de la Revista Internacional de Economía y Gestión de las Organizaciones abarcan un terreno amplio, desde lo
general y especulativo hasta lo particular y empírico. No obstante, su preocupación principal es redefinir nuestro entendimiento
de lo humano y mostrar diversas prácticas disciplinarias dentro de las humanidades. Esta revista pretende reabrir el debate
acerca de las diversas facetas de los seres humanos tanto por razones prácticas como teóricas.
El enfoque de la revista apunta a los parámetros intangibles que determinan, no sólo la fiabilidad de las organizaciones desde la
perspectiva interna y su credibilidad de cara al exterior, sino también aquellos que determinan resultados tangibles en forma de
eficiencia, eficacia y productividad. Los activos intangibles como el conocimientos, la cultura y la gestión del cambio no
aparecen en los balances, pero tienen en última instancia un enorme impacto en el negocio. La revista trata de abordar cómo el
conocimiento, la cultura y el cambio se manifiestan en las organizaciones. Los artículos abarcan tanto análisis teóricos generales
hasta estudios de caso detallados que versan sobre estrategias prácticas o sobre la manera de convertir en valores tangibles
los intangibles de las organizaciones, la conversión del conocimiento tácito en explícito. La Revista Internacional de Economía y
Gestión de las Organizaciones es revisada por expertos y respaldada por un proceso de publicación basado en el rigor y en
criterios de calidad académica, asegurando así que solo los trabajos intelectuales significativos sean publicados.
La revista es relevante para académicos en los campos de la gestión, las ciencias económicas, las ciencias sociales y la
educación/formación, para investigadores, gestores del conocimiento, estudiantes, formadores, consultores de la industria,
economistas, empresarios y emprendedores, profesionales de recursos humanos, expertos en gestión del cambio y, en
definitiva, cualquier persona con interés y preocupación por la gestión y por el cambio cultural en las organizaciones.
La Revista Internacional de Economía y Gestión de las Organizaciones es revisada por expertos y respaldada por un proceso de
publicación basado en el rigor y en criterios de calidad académica, asegurando así que solo los trabajos intelectuales
significativos sean publicados.

Acceso Abierto
Las revistas de Common Ground ofrecen un modelo de acceso abierto híbrido a los autores de los artículos. Se trata de
un nuevo modelo, en pleno auge en el seno del sector de las publicaciones académicas. Este servicio es ofrecido cada
vez más por las editoriales universitarias y por editoriales comerciales de prestigio.
Acceso Abierto Híbrido significa que algunos artículos están disponibles sólo para suscriptores, mientras que otros están
disponibles gratuitamente para cualquier persona que busca en la web. Los autores que estén interesados en tener su
artículo en acceso abierto, es decir accesible de forma gratuita en la web, deben abonar una cantidad adicional si desean
hacer efectiva esta interesante opción. Cada vez más agencias de financiación, tanto gubernamentales como
fundaciones públicas y privadas, están exigiendo que los artículos de sus investigadores sean publicados en acceso
abierto. A cambio, dichas agencias ofrecen financiación adicional a dichos autores para poder abonar la cantidad
estipulada por la editorial. Infórmese en su agencia de financiación, en su centro de investigación o en su universidad
para solicitar una ayuda por este concepto.
Los beneficios de convertir su artículo en acceso abierto son considerables y empíricamente comprobados.
Innumerables trabajos de investigación han probado que un artículo en acceso abierto aumenta no sólo su visibilidad y
su accesibilidad y por tanto, también el número de lectores potenciales, sino que además puede aumentar el número de
citas recibidas en más de un 250%.
Para más información, por favor visite la página: http://sobregestion.com/publicaciones/revista/acceso-abierto.
Servicios Editoriales

THE ORGANIZATION CONFERENCE
Conference Principles and Features
The structure of the conference is based on four core principles that pervade all aspects of the knowledge community:
International
This conference travels around the world to provide opportunities for delegates to see and experience different countries and
locations. But more importantly, the Organization Conference offers a tangible and meaningful opportunity to engage with
scholars from a diversity of cultures and perspectives. This year, delegates from over 31 countries are in attendance, offering a
unique and unparalleled opportunity to engage directly with colleagues from all corners of the globe.
Interdisciplinary
Unlike association conferences attended by delegates with similar backgrounds and specialties, this conference brings together
researchers, practitioners, and scholars from a wide range of disciplines who have a shared interest in the themes and concerns
of this community. As a result, topics are broached from a variety of perspectives, interdisciplinary methods are applauded, and
mutual respect and collaboration are encouraged.
Inclusive
Anyone whose scholarly work is sound and relevant is welcome to participate in this community and conference, regardless of
discipline, culture, institution, or career path. Whether an emeritus professor, graduate student, researcher, teacher,
policymaker, practitioner, or administrator your work and your voice can contribute to the collective body of knowledge that is
created and shared by this community.
Interactive
To take full advantage of the rich diversity of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives represented at the conference, there must
be ample opportunities to speak, listen, engage, and interact. A variety of session formats, from more to less structured, are
offered throughout the conference to provide these opportunities.
Session Descriptions
Plenary Sessions
Plenary speakers, chosen from among the world’s leading thinkers, offer formal presentations on topics of broad interest to the
community and conference delegation. One or more speakers are scheduled into a plenary session, most often the first session
of the day. As a general rule, there are no questions or discussion during these sessions. Instead, plenary speakers answer
questions and participate in informal, extended discussions during their Garden Sessions.
Garden Sessions
Garden Sessions are informal, unstructured sessions that allow delegates a chance to meet plenary speakers and talk with them
at length about the issues arising from their presentation. When the venue and weather allow, we try to arrange for a circle of
chairs to be placed outdoors.
Talking Circles
Held on the first day of the conference, Talking Circles offer an early opportunity to meet other delegates with similar interests
and concerns. Delegates self-select into groups based on broad thematic areas and then engage in extended discussion about
the issues and concerns they feel are of utmost importance to that segment of the community. Questions like “Who are we?”,
”What is our common ground?”, “What are the current challenges facing society in this area?”, “What challenges do we face in
constructing knowledge and effecting meaningful change in this area?” may guide the conversation. When possible, a second
Talking Circle is held on the final day of the conference, for the original group to reconvene and discuss changes in their
perspectives and understandings as a result of the conference experience. Reports from the Talking Circles provide a framework
for the delegates’ final discussions during the Closing Session.
Paper Presentations
Paper presentations are grouped by general themes or topics into sessions comprised of three or four presentations followed by
group discussion. Each presenter in the session makes a formal twenty-minute presentation of their work; Q&A and group
discussion follow after all have presented. Session Chairs introduce the speakers, keep time on the presentations, and facilitate
the discussion. Each presenter's formal, written paper will be available to participants if accepted to the journal.
Colloquium
Colloquium sessions are organized by a group of colleagues who wish to present various dimensions of a project or
perspectives on an issue. Four or five short formal presentations are followed by commentary and/or group discussion. A single
article or multiple articles may be submitted to the journal based on the content of a colloquium session.
Workshop/Interactive Session
Workshop sessions involve extensive interaction between presenters and participants around an idea or hands-on experience of
a practice. These sessions may also take the form of a crafted panel, staged conversation, dialogue or debate – all involving
substantial interaction with the audience. A single article (jointly authored, if appropriate) may be submitted to the journal based
on a workshop session.
Focused Discussion Session
For work that is best discussed or debated, rather than reported on through a formal presentation, these sessions provide a
forum for an extended “roundtable” conversation between an author and a small group of interested colleagues. Several such
discussions occur simultaneously in a specified area, with each author’s table designated by a number corresponding to the title
and topic listed in the program schedule. Summaries of the author’s key ideas, or points of discussion, are used to stimulate
and guide the discourse. A single article, based on the scholarly work and informed by the focused discussion as appropriate,
may be submitted to the journal.
Virtual Presentations
If unable to attend the conference in person, an author may choose to submit a virtual presentation. Opportunities and formats
vary but may be a presentation through our YouTube channel or an online discussion with interested delegates at the
conference. Abstracts of these presentations are included in the online “session descriptions,” and an article may be submitted
to the journal for peer review and possible publication, according to the same standards and criteria as all other journal
submissions.

A Digital Learning Platform
Use Scholar to Support Your Teaching
Scholar is a social knowledge platform that transforms the patterns of interaction in learning by putting students first , positioning
them as knowledge producers instead of passive knowledge consumers. Scholar provides scaffolding to encourage making and
sharing knowledge drawing from multiple sources rather than memorizing knowledge that has been presented to them.
Scholar also answers one of the most fundamental questions students and instructors have of their performance, "How am I
doing?" Typical modes of assessment often answer this question either too late to matter or in a way that is not clear or
comprehensive enough to meaningfully contribute to better performance.
A collaborative research and development project between Common Ground and the College of Education at the University of
Illinois, Scholar contains a knowledge community space, a multimedia web writing space, a formative assessment environment
that facilitates peer review, and a dashboard with aggregated machine and human formative and summative writing assessment
data.
The following Scholar features are only available to Common Ground Knowledge Community members as part of their
membership. Please email us at [email protected] if you would like the complimentary educator account that comes with
participation in a Common Ground conference.




Create projects for groups of students, involving draft, peer review, revision and publication.
Publish student works to each student’s personal portfolio space, accessible through the web for class discussion.
Create and distribute surveys.
Evaluate student work using a variety of measures in the assessment dashboard.
Scholar is a generation beyond learning management systems. It is what we term a Digital Learning Platform—it transforms
learning by engaging students in powerfully horizontal ‘social knowledge’ relationships. For more information, visit:

The Organization Collection seeks an editor, or team of editors, for a one-year term. This is an
opportunity to make a significant contribution to a group of leading journals and, more
broadly, the conference and book imprint associated with the journal collection.
The roles of the editor are to:

journal issue, or an edited book.
- Select papers addressing the special theme and compile them in an edited book to be
launched at the conference at the completion of the editor’s term. The chapters may
be drawn from submissions to the journal during this or recent years, and other
material as considered appropriate.
- Suggest plenary speakers for the conference, preferably from the conference locale,
and also to contribute papers to the journal.
- Recommend the journal to your colleagues; solicit submissions from members of your
professional network.
- Serve as an advisor for the selection of the International Award for Excellence and the
papers to include in the Annual Review.
- Maintain a significant presence within the community via social media (e.g. via
Facebook, Twitter, Community, and our website and monthly e-newsletter).
The editor will be offered a complimentary electronic subscription to the Organization
Collection, an electronic subscription to the book imprint, and complimentary registrations to
attend the conferences at the beginning and end of their term.
Applicants are asked to send the following to [email protected]
1. A cover letter outlining their interest and relevant experience
