The guest editors of the Special Issue titled “How do entrepreneurs influence their social environment? New Psychological Perspectives” in Applied Psychology: International Review (APIR) will be hosting an ECSB professional development workshop dedicated to the idea development for this special issue. During this webinar, we will present the special issue topic and offer general guidance on publishing in an applied psychology journal. In addition, authors who consider to contribute to the special issue are invited to present and discuss their own proposals. The purpose of the webinar is to give authors an opportunity to develop and refine their ideas before submitting their work. The workshop aims to help prospective authors to create a conversation around the topic and to help them develop their contribution to this conversation. Participation in the workshop does not guarantee acceptance of the paper in APIR, nor is attendance in the workshop a prerequisite for submission of the manuscript for the special issue.
