Call for abstracts 

​

We welcome papers on various topics, using different methodological approaches. Besides, various types of submissions are welcome: papers, chapters, research proposals, etc. We encourage scholars from a variety of backgrounds and experience levels to submit abstracts about issues at all different levels of analysis as well as different actors:
 

• Macro level: such as the impact of the institutional environment on people management in schools.

• Meso level: such as the role of line managers (for instance principals, team leaders, teacher leaders) or HR professionals on people management/school performance. 

• Micro level: such as the impact of people management on teacher well-being.
   

Topics not listed here are also encouraged to stimulate discussion on the width of the field of people management in education.
