Our suggestion is that the discussant presents the outline of the paper and raises a number of key questions in 10 minutes. Consequently, the author of the paper has 10 minutes to reply, followed by 10 minutes of general discussion. We have used the name of the first author as discussant, but in the case of the presence of two or more authors, the role of discussant can of course be taken over by one of the others.
We look forward to a most promising sub-theme session!

Setting the tone of the discussant (with thanks to the AoM):
- Please provide a very brief summary of the paper to be discussed.
- Keep your comments constructive.
- Pay attention to the strength of a manuscript as well as the weaknesses.
- Concerning the weaknesses: Provide specific guidance for how to address the limitations. Specificity in your comments increases the likeliness of authors to benefit from your efforts. If the problems you identify cannot be fixed, try to provide the authors with constructive ideas for improvement, in further developing their research.
- Please be open minded concerning different theoretical frameworks and different disciplinary backgrounds. Try to judge papers on how well they stimulate thinking and discussion.
