We are open to a wide set of methodological approaches including empirical research, case-based research, field studies, behavioral decision making experiments, among others.\u0026nbsp; We encourage collaboration between academia and industry and welcome diverse submissions by both industry and geography.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ESome prospective topics include:\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EValue of Analytics\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EWhere is the value?\u0026nbsp; Targeting, focusing, measuring and realizing the value from analytics while anticipating disruptive threats in their industry.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EOptimizing the business you have while planning with agility for the business you want to become in a dynamic uncertain market.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EThe Data Economy\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EMigrating to the Data Economy by taking advantage of the wealth of data being generated both internally and externally to provide more effective decision support.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003ELeveraging cloud-based digital platforms to enable speed to capability, address latency challenges and provide right-time insights.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EStriking the right balance between this natural migration and tradeoffs around data security, data privacy and compliance.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAdoption of Advanced Analytics\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAdoption of advanced analytics and machine learning to solve problems in new ways.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003ECognitive is coming \u0026ndash; adoption is slower than you think and the use case universe is sparse.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EWhen will we reach the tipping point from over-hyped and inflated expectations to wide scale adoption of advanced analytics methods (e.g. explainable AI)?\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDecision Science\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EEmbedded analytics in decision making (e.g. fully automated, predictive alerts, role-based decision cockpits etc.).\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAdoption of evidence-based decision making \u0026ndash; the convergence of technology, behavioral science and organization design.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EImpacts of interactive visualizations on acceptance and use of analytics.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EThe cusp of a new wave in the fields of management and decision science.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EOrganization Design\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EOrganizing for success \u0026ndash; bridging the gap between the business decision makers, the data science community and the information technology organization.\u0026nbsp; What are the tradeoffs between agility and industrialization?\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EAdapting the culture of the organization to be insight driven, especially when the insights challenge established and accepted norms.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESubmission Instructions\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESubmission Deadline:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;September 1, 2017\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EFirst Round Review:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;November 1, 2017\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESecond Round Review\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003E(if needed):\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;January 1, 2018\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EPublication:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Summer 2018\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EFor further information regarding this special issue, please email the Special Issue Editors:\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cul\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003EWilliam B.
