The 2022 Andrew W. Marshall Paper Prize on the Role of Organizational Behavior in Competition awarded multi-rounds of prizes from $500 – $13,000 for intellectually bold work that reinvigorated strategic thinking on organizational behavior and its impact on strategic competition. The competition sought creative responses to the question: What are, or what might be in the future, cases of great strengths or great weaknesses of organizational behavior in developing or implementing strategy?

The grand prize-winning paper was published in Spring 2023. Congratulations to our Finalists and Grand Prize-Winners, Elliot M. Seckler and Travis Zahnow!
