  • AIB Newsletter Regularly Informs Our Membership of Recent Developments in the Academy
    Academy of International Business NewsletterVol. 24, No. 4, 2018 Letter from the President The AIB Newsletter regularly informs our membership of recent developments in the Academy. As the President, I would like to draw your attention to several articles of particular interest in this edition. In our AIB Mission, Vision, and Values statement, one key value is integrity. We believe in prac- ticing the highest ethical principles in our research, education, and professional lives. In reality, Chuck C . Y . Kwok however, AIB program chairs and journal editors are confronted with cases of unethical conduct. To provide clear policies and procedures to address these cases, the AIB board established two standing committees: the Ethics Policy Committee (EPC) and Ethics Review Committee (ERC). The former is respon- sible for the interpretation, implementation, and dissemination of the AIB Code of Ethics while the latter is responsible for the investigation of ethics violations. While the full AIB Code of Ethics is available on the association’s website, Denis Arnold, the EPC Chair, has contributed an article to this issue which provides a detailed examination of its development process. We IB scholars are sometimes criticized for being “too academic,” producing research that’s disconnected from events in the “real world.” The Academy of International Business is making efforts to bridge this gap. In our annual AIB confer- ences, we invite practitioners to share their thoughts and have dialogues with our members at special panels. We also en- courage our members to participate in practitioner-organized conferences to explain the practical relevance of our academ- ic research.
