Switch and Tune

I need to start review the communicating knowledge paper today, or else it wouldnt be ready by end of this week. Opps... tomorrow is friday and that means I am left with 24 hours to get it done. Impossible. I havent touch this paper since last wed. My mind was busy with the offshore accounting outsourcing analysis last week and now I have to set the analysis aside as the transcription need to be reviewed before any further analysis could be done. I have to start switch and tune my mind to the communicating knowledge paper or else I will never get it done!

Too busy

I'm not sure what made me busy but I'm busy...Busy with kids, research and writing... as usual. I need to calm down a little bit and focus. Too much to do and I cannot do everything at once. Ok, lets go back a step behind...listing the jobs that need to be done asap


1. rewrite paper of communicating knowledge - now the intention is to focus on sense-making
2. action research - first visit should be done before end of this month - need to finalise the open-ended questions
3. frgs offshore outsourcing - still reading and analyse the interview transribe - low quality of transciption - have to wait for other transcription/retranscribe before further analysis

4. frgs survival strategy - still looking for interview and cases
5. interpretive paper for IFIP - still not ready - due end of july
6. paper need to be formated n sent to journal - Offshoring and SMEs, Risks and Control in Accounting Outsoucing, eProcurement


waaa everyhing is still hanging .. :|

Just a little bit more

Received feedback for frgs ecommerce proposal. Hehe.. that was a two-hour work and I just need to do a little bit of adjustment to the objective and sample.

Same goes to Outsourcing Turnback paper. Received feedback with few more comments. Just a little bit more before ready to be published..

I'm holding on... dont worry  :P

Journal Case for Integrated Case Study

I was asked to propose a Journal Case for Integrated Case Study, collaboration UKM-MIA. Interesting right? I will prepare a proposal by end of next week and hopefully everything goes well.

Brian responded to my article on communicating knowledge. He wanted a more novel idea for that paper, which means another round of rewriting. I dont mind spending my lifetime on this paper as long as it get publish in a top ranked impact journal. Tomorrow, we will be on SKYPE to discuss this paper. Oops, I need to download SKYPE again. Syyhhhh..

Frust

Finally, I submitted the article on Knowledge Gap to Journal of Knowledge Management. What a relief. I'm now writing on 'Intepretive Case Study - Situating in Research'. I've drafted this article a year ago and its about time to polish and publish. Target journal will be Qualitative Research Journal. Hopefully, I can get it done by end of this week. Too ambitious? Hehe.. hanya Dia yang tahu.

Actually, I am quite frustrated. Not just because of Brazil and Argentina that were not performed in World Cup... its mainly because I feel like I'm working under 'par' with limited resources and support.  *sigh*
