- an outline description of the theoretical framework and concepts
- the research design and approach to data analysis (where applicable)
- the key findings, along with their theoretical and practical significance
Please note that your abstract should clearly relate to the International HRM theme of the conference, demonstrating the international element of your paper.
All submissions must be original and should not have been previously accepted for publication in a journal, or presented at another conference. All abstracts will be blind reviewed.
