Following the success of the First Paper Development Workshop held at the University of Queensland in March 2014, we held a second event on February 26, 2016. UQ Business School hosted the event, which attracted particularly junior scholars, doing research in the field of human resource management who were seeking guidance on publishing their papers in top-level academic journals. Kate Hutchings (Griffith University) presented a keynote address, focusing on publishing tips around her research on expatriation and emerging economies. Yiqiong Li (UQ Business School) also joined to share her early career expertise with the group. Participants were invited to attend a related practitioner workshop the day before, which focused on bridging academia and practice on the topic of HRM in emerging markets.

The event was organized by Elaine Farndale from CIHRS, along with Charmine Härtel (UQ Business School) and Maria Beamond (UQ Business School).
