On-the-side consulting opportunities for management faculty
saleem posted a topic in PhD in Business
Do management/OB/strategy faculty in T50 departments have opportunities to consult on the side? Economics professors often serve as expert witnesses for litigation consulting firms. What are comparable options on the management side?- 2 replies

Hi Forum, I’ve enjoyed reading and learning from your posts for some time now. I was very fortunate on the job market this year and accepted an Assistant Professor offer from an R1 (RU/VH). I am thrilled! I am trying to solicit non-biased advice on a research strategy to both (a) eventually become a field leader and more importantly (b) for tenure. B journals count, but there are some expectations for A journals. My current research: I do have a first-author B accepted which will count towards tenure. I also have manuscripts under review at an A and B+/A-. I have another manuscript finished for a B that I am waiting to submit until my accepted B is in print. I do not believe that my A submission will be accepted. However, I am optimistic that it along with the B+/A- submission will eventually be accepted in a B+/A- journal (opinion formed after talking with my advisor (and co-author)). I completed my PhD from a highly-respected University, but in 3 years. I think that because of this I am still somewhat green and may need to teach myself more skills to hit A’s regularly and consistently (prob not unlike most). So, in your opinion what option should I pursue? 1. Concentrate my efforts on B and B/A- journal submission and hope to increase my skills with continued experience on projects and the review process 2. Drastically slow my current research work to focus on improving theory/experimental design/writing 3. Try and balance option 1 and 2 I would appreciate any advice or suggestions, especially from somewhat to more established faculty at a research university. The advice I have seen on this forum has been outstanding. P.S. Not submitting to a B is not an option for me. I need a floor in case I don’t make tenure. Plus even Tomas Hult has B’s! ‘ Thank you!
