During my talk, I will focus on the biggest learnings when moving into the Editor in Chief Journal in a top-tier journal and talk about what happens behind the curtains. All with the aim to let authors better understand also the operations side of publishing in top-tier journals. Furthermore, we will discuss general strategies for publishing in empirically focused journals and also about different styles and strategies in diverse empirical fields. The session aims at a discussion with the audience and to help scholars better bridge gaps between reviewers and different kinds of editor expectations.
