From the Editors: On Writing Up Qualitative Research in Management Learning and Education

In this editorial, I want to put a specific focus on how to write up qualitative work for submission to AMLE. My motivation comes from two observations. Since our team started our editorial role in July 2014, we have held a number of workshops around the world on publishing in AMLE. Many times, the discussions in the workshops I gave revolved around questions about qualitative work and, more specifically, aroundcomposing qualitative manuscripts for submission to AMLE. In addition, I noticed that authors of qualitative manuscripts submitted to the journal seem to be struggling with a number of specific issues related towriting and to making decisions about what should and should not go into the manuscript. As a result, we feel it is time to provide some guidelines for writing qualitative papers for AMLE as well as some insights into what reviewers and readers alike are looking for in a qualitative manuscript on a management learning and education-(MLE) related topic.Open Acces
