Hello, I am to be a discussant, as you can see below. I can see the papers being presented from the program menu, but I am trying to find and download the papers from the “Papers” drop down menu. However, I don’t see any submission numbers. How do I find the papers for my session?

Thanks

YOUR ROLE AS DISCUSSANT

Dear Warren Boeker,
Discussant in the session on " Organizational behavior: Meta-organization and networks " at 2024-Jun-13 17:00 - 18:30

The DRUID24 parallel sessions program is now ready and available on the conference website www.druid.dk from the "Program" drop-down menu.

June 4 onwards, an updated electronic version of the program (accessible from any browser or smartphone) will be available: program.druid.dk

There have been a few changes to to program, so please consult the parallel sessions program carefully and note that your name might appear more than once if you are also presenting or have been asked to assist as a chair. We have taken great care to assign your discussion and other roles at the conference to accommodate the arrival and departure times you have provided when registering. That means that even if we had initially scheduled your discussion for June 13, we may have rescheduled it according to the arrival and departure times you have given us.

The conference web site has links to all papers being presented ("Papers" in the drop-down menu -- demands logon), as well as to useful hints and practical information (choose "Parallel Sessions Formats and Roles" under the "Program" drop-down menu). Please also consult the DRUID 'Discussants' Guidelines' pasted below. They might contain information important to you.

We strive to make no further changes in the timing of papers, but late cancellations might force some minor revisions to the program. An updated program can be found in the free DRUID24 electronic program from June 4. Please access it from program.druid.dk

Please remember that DRUID24 also presents a range of PDWs on June 13.  Participation is free for conference delegates and no further registration is needed. The content of the PDWs can be accessed from the conference website.

Finally, DRUID features an attractive social program: On June 14, the DRUID DISCOVERIES excursions offer fun and unique sightseeing options before arriving at the Conference Dinner. On June 15, the DRUID DECADENCE afterparty will wrap up things in style and make DRUIDs wine, dine and dance the night away. You can read more about the social program at the conference website. Space is limited for the social events, so please book well in advance from your DRUID conference registration profile.

We look forward to seeing you in Nice!

Best wishes
Mark Lorenzen
Director, DRUID

DISCUSSANTS' GUIDELINES

It is the discussant that stimulates civilized controversies, which are at the core of the conference. One or more of the papers you have been asked to discuss might not be within your particular area of expertise, but do NOT start by stating this. Instead, act professionally and do your best to provide useful comments as best you can. Be clear, to the point, sharp but constructive, acknowledge significant contributions but focus on aspects where improvements can or must be made. Aim at providing the author(s) with something useful to bring home. Enlighten, when possible, the audience with some new insight or reflection. Your comments should be given in judicious language. Disclose any financial or other interest you might have in the subject matter of the papers. Let the Conference Organizers know immediately if you become suspicious of any possible fabrication of data, plagiarism or other kinds of scientific fraud relating to the papers you are asked to discuss.

In order that everyone has sufficient time to speak it is important that you exercise discipline, particularly time management. The following notes are intended to inform you of how each session will be organized.
- Please arrive at the appropriate room five minutes before the session is due to start. All rooms are equipped with black out facilities and a Power Point projector. Please note that if you have prepared some points on a PowerPoint slide you must arrive with your presentation on a USB memory device and load it yourself onto the machine provided in the room before the start of the session. It might even be a good idea to do so well in advance as not all versions of PowerPoint function equally well on all projectors. Solicit advice at the info desk or through a student assistant if experiencing trouble.
- Introduce yourself to the presenters, co-discussant and the chair. Give the chair your biographical details for use in introducing you. Ideally to assist the chair these should be in writing. One or two lines would suffice.
- The chair will tell you at the beginning of the session how long your comments should last. This will inevitably vary between sessions depending on the number of papers to be presented. In a one and a half hour session with three papers you should aim to speak for no more than 12 minutes leaving time for your replies and for the floor.
- We have asked session chairs to be very strict in terms of time management so that each discussant has an equal amount of time.

By abiding to the simple rules your contribution will help support what we hope will be a productive, stimulating and enjoyable conference.
