<br/><br/> While there is a prolific body of literature on social and organisation networks, there is no research on how academics develop and manage their research networks for the purpose of publication. This paper provides knowledge and understanding as to how academics develop and manage such networks. Many themes are presented that help academics develop and manage their networks. Key influences are identified. Network structures that academics use to facilitate publication are identified and implications for academics and business schools are discussed
