Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Laurence Chalip's Legacy
Q: What was the best explanation for Laurence's last 25 years of scholarship outside of looking at the general sport management field?
The guest explains that Chalip's later work bridged policy, sport events, and management through a transdisciplinary lens, integrating industry practice with academic theory to push for real-world impact.
Laurence Chalip's Legacy
Q: What do you think would be Laurence's most important roles or public works that would stick out to him the most?
Chris emphasizes Chalip's role in founding and shaping key programs and journals, notably Sport Management Review; his drive to build people and programs, not just ideas, and his focus on making research actionable.
Laurence Chalip's Legacy
Q: Chris, do you mind talking a little bit about Laurence as far back as you know, and that experience of what he was for you in the field?
Chris describes Laurence as an eclectic, boundary-crossing figure whose varied background—from anthropology to psychology to policy—seeded a distinctive, practical approach to sport management and teaching.
The Reviewer Shortage
Q: What are the main challenges you face with reviewers, and what strategies are you employing to address them?
Key challenges include finding willing and timely reviewers, managing time zones, and ensuring quality feedback. Strategies include expanding the associate editor team, leveraging editorial board expertise, inviting early career researchers, and giving feedback to junior reviewers to develop their skills.
The Reviewer Shortage
Q: How many submissions does SMR typically receive, and what does that imply for reviewer management?
SMR receives around 620 submissions last year and expects over 700 this year, which translates to a need for a large network of reviewers and a structured process to secure two to three reviews per paper, sometimes involving early career researchers to fill gaps.
