CALL FOR PAPERS -- Management Development Forum (MDF)
MDF is published three times a year by the FORUM program at SUNY- Empire
State College. This publication is distributed to human resource
professionals, trainers, and consultants engaged in management development
and education. The objective of this journal is to stimulate innovative
thinking, share new developments and ideas, and report on new techniques
and intervention programs relevant to managers. MDF serves as a pool for
new theory and practical knowledge that will support human resource
professionals seeking to enhance management training, education, and
development in their organizations.
The ideal submission is 1,000 to 4,000 words. The body of the article
should flow logically and smoothly. Avoid jargon and technical terms.
MDF's style and tone are journalistic rather than academic. No reference
is needed for ideas paraphrased rather than quoted, or for widely known
information, such as the fact that downsizing is a strategy used by many
large scale organizations. When references are necessary, incorporate them
into the text. Remember that our audience consists primarily of HR
professionals who are interested in the most recent insights on the
subject matter. If deemed truly essential to the integrity of the article,
a short reference list (3-5 items) can be included at the end of the
article under "suggested readings".
To submit an article, please send two copies of your manuscript by April
30, 1997 to:
Dr. Alan Belasen, Editor
Management Development Forum

One Union Avenue
