The two-day workshop is organized to discuss different possibilities for carrying out empirical research in international business. During the first day, different existing data sets, such as the GLOBE Project, World Values Survey, and X-Culture, will be introduced. A special focus will be placed on discussing how these datasets may be valuable for Ph.D. students and young researchers without excluding researchers at more advanced stages of their careers. In addition, an introduction to the use of artificial intelligence tools in literature search and selection of empirical studies for the literature review is offered, best practices for bibliometric-systematic literature reviews will be introduced, and typical journal submission processes will be discussed. The second day is organized as a paper development workshop, during which ideas for empirical papers in international business can be discussed and developed further. The workshop is mentored by experienced researchers in the area but also editors of potential outlets of such studies. At the end of the workshops, participants will receive a certificate.
