The AMJ Management Research Canvas : A Tool for Conducting and Reporting Empirical Research

The AMJ Management Research Canvas is a tool developed by the Academy of Management Journal (AMJ) to help scholars plan and develop their research projects. The canvas consists of nine core elements that researchers should consider: the puzzle, the audience and prior research, the research question, theoretical constructs and relationships, the research setting, research design and analysis, empirical findings, contributions, and boundary conditions and limitations. The canvas provides a framework for researchers to think through each element and ask important questions related to their study. By considering these elements, researchers can ensure that their research is well-designed, addresses a significant problem, and contributes to the existing body of knowledge. The canvas can be used for both quantitative and qualitative research projects and can help researchers in the conceptualization, implementation, and revision of their studies.
