Leadership Research Network

The Leadership Research Network (LRN) is directed by Nitin Nohria, Richard P. Chapman Professor of Business Administration and Dean of the Faculty at the Harvard Business School, and Rakesh Khurana, Marvin Bower Professor of Leadership Development at the Harvard Business School.

Professional Announcements and Job Openings: LRN Professional Announcements is distributed weekly and includes announcements including conferences, professional meetings, calls for papers, and Professional Job Openings. Please contact Announcements@SSRN.com for more information.

Subscriptions: Subscribing to any of the Leadership Research Network’s eJournals provides the most efficient and convenient way to receive the latest research from the world’s foremost researchers. At the organizational level, Site Subscriptions can be customized to meet your faculty’s needs, including number of subscribers and research areas of interest. Please contact Subscriptions@ssrn.com for individual or site subscription information.

Research Paper Series: Leadership Research Network Research Paper Series offer your institution a way to showcase and distribute the research of your faculty and staff. Creating a Research Paper Series (RPS) for your institution will give you the most exposure for your faculty’s work and is an excellent way to create awareness and disseminate your research. Please contact RPS@ssrn.com for more information.

Conference Management Service: Our Conference Management Service offers a range of services from full hosting to online proceedings. Based on your needs, we will create a unique web page and manage everything from research submissions to refereeing, volunteer requests, and more. Distribution of a Conference eJournal is also available. Please contact CMS@ssrn.com for more information.

Professional Directory: We encourage the readers of our journals to communicate directly with other members of the SSRN Community regarding their own and other’s research. To help facilitate this interchange, we make contact information for each author available on our web site. To obtain contact information, you can search for an author or click on an author’s name anywhere in our system.

SSRN’s Commitments to Users: SSRN’s objective is to provide worldwide distribution of research to authors and their readers and to facilitate communication among them at the lowest possible cost. We allow authors to upload papers without charge, and any paper an author uploads to SSRN is downloadable for free, worldwide. SSRN also provides free subscriptions to all of our eJournals to users in developing countries on request. We allow publishers and other institutions to charge users for downloads, but insist that the price for such papers on SSRN cannot exceed the lowest non-subscriber price for these papers anywhere on the web. The vast majority of downloads of papers from the SSRN eLibrary are free.

The 264,000+ authors who have contributed their research to SSRN have trusted us with their intellectual output. We are committed to fulfilling that trust. We are authors, and we respect, above all, our authors‘ rights in their material. We have never and will never behave opportunistically with our authors‘ material. You have our word on this.
