Abstract
This paper joins the festivities that celebrate Professor Yadong Luo’s winning of the Academy of Management International Management Division (AOM IMD) Hyundai Motor Eminent Scholar Award. We address three crucial questions: (1) What do we know from Luo’s three decades of research? (2) How can he achieve sustained high-impact research? (3) What lessons can we learn from his scholarship? Deploying artificial intelligence (AI) to help make sense of Luo’s prolific and influential research, we find that his scholarship excels in both quantity and quality, expanding the boundaries in international business (IB) and international management (IM) research through his conceptual and empirical exploration of a broad range of topics. A trailblazing scholar bridging East and West, Luo has been a pioneer in reframing traditional West-based IB/IM concepts in East-based contexts centered on emerging markets. Asserting influence beyond his own field, he has successfully exported some IB/IM research to other disciplines. Critical lessons from his scholarship include: (1) Passion, dedication, and focus are a must. (2) Attention to reality and continuous learning drive success. (3) Open perspectives allow for better engagement with new phenomena.
期刊介绍:
The Asia Pacific Journal of Management publishes original manuscripts on management and organizational research in the Asia Pacific region, encompassing Pacific Rim countries and mainland Asia. APJM focuses on the extent to which each manuscript addresses matters that pertain to the most fundamental question: “What determines organization success?” The major academic disciplines that we cover include entrepreneurship, human resource management, international business, organizational behavior, and strategic management. However, manuscripts that belong to other well-established disciplines such as accounting, economics, finance, marketing, and operations generally do not fall into the scope of APJM. We endeavor to be the major vehicle for exchange of ideas and research among management scholars within or interested in the broadly defined Asia Pacific region.Key features include:
Rigor - maintained through strict review processes, high quality global reviewers, and Editorial Advisory and Review Boards comprising prominent researchers from many countries.
Relevance - maintained by its focus on key management and organizational trends in the region.
Uniqueness - being the first and most prominent management journal published in and about the fastest growing region in the world.
