Administrative Science Quarterly Workflow (asq-workflow)
Overview
This is the router. It does not replace any specialized skill; it tells you which asq- skill to use at your current stage*.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as Administrative Science Quarterly (ASQ) — a top, theory-driven journal in organization theory and the sociology of organizations, founded in 1956 by James D. Thompson (first editor 1956–1973; author of Organizations in Action) and published by SAGE in association with the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University. Its motto: "Dedicated to advancing the understanding of administration through empirical investigation and theoretical analysis." ASQ's hallmark is a deep, often surprising theoretical insight about organizations, delivered with superb craft. It publishes both rigorous quantitative work and rich qualitative/inductive studies (grounded-theory, ethnographic, historical) — method follows the theoretical question. The current Editor is Beth Bechky (UC Davis; term began July 1, 2025, succeeding Christine Beckman and András Tilcsik), an ethnographer of work and occupations — a signal of ASQ's openness to inductive fieldwork. ASQ has no submission fee, is exceptionally selective (reported acceptance ~8%), uses APA references (since January 2025), and is distinctive among management journals for its standing book review section.
When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?"
- The user drops a draft and needs the current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work keeps ping-ponging between theory, methods, and prose with no clear state
- An ASQ decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into review/rebuttal mode
Routing table
| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Idea is interesting but not yet surprising; unsure it fits ASQ | asq-topic-selection |
| Have a phenomenon but no theoretical engine / mechanism | asq-theory-development |
| Lit review reads like a list; not in dialogue with org-theory traditions | asq-literature-positioning |
| Unsure whether design should be qualitative or quantitative; rigor gaps | asq-methods |
| Have data but coding/analysis is opaque; no data-to-theory link | asq-data-analysis |
| Can't state the contribution as a "so-what" for organization theory | asq-contribution-framing |
| Tables/figures are dense or do not show the data structure (qual or quant) | asq-tables-figures |
| Prose is flat, jargon-heavy, or "variance-speak" where process is needed | asq-writing-style |
| Preparing to submit; need a preflight checklist | asq-submission |
| Want to understand ASQ's developmental review before/after submitting | asq-review-process |
| Received an R&R and need to write the response | asq-rebuttal |
Default order
asq-topic-selection— lock the puzzle and the surprising organizational insightasq-theory-development— build the theoretical engine (process or variance) before data workasq-literature-positioning— situate in organization-theory conversationsasq-methods— choose and justify design (qualitative or quantitative); set the rigor barasq-data-analysis— execute analysis and the data-to-theory linkasq-contribution-framing— sharpen the theoretical "so what" once results existasq-tables-figures— finalize data tables, data-to-theory tables, models, figuresasq-writing-style— full-manuscript prose and craft polishasq-submission— pre-submission preflightasq-review-process— understand the developmental, multi-round processasq-rebuttal— after the R&R decision
asq-writing-styleandasq-tables-figuresare late-stage polish — do not run them while the theoretical contribution is still unsettled. At ASQ, craft cannot rescue a thin idea.
Decision heuristics
- "I have a result but no surprise" →
asq-topic-selection - "My theory is a box-and-arrow model with no mechanism" →
asq-theory-development - "My lit review cites everyone but argues with no one" →
asq-literature-positioning - "I ran hypotheses but learned nothing new about organizations" →
asq-theory-developmentthenasq-contribution-framing - "My informant quotes are decorative, not evidentiary" →
asq-data-analysis - "Reviewer says 'this is a method in search of a theory'" →
asq-contribution-framing - "I'm about to submit tonight" →
asq-submission - "I got a high-risk R&R with three reviewers" →

Differences vs. other management packs
- ASQ: theory first; surprise and craft are paramount; qualitative/inductive work is fully first-class (think Barley's 1986 CT-scanner study or Weick's 1993 Mann Gulch paper); process theory is common; the sociology-of-organizations lineage is central. Reviews books as well as articles.
- AMJ: empirical, hypothesis-testing norm dominates; strong quantitative bar.
- AMR: theory-only; no data at all.
- SMJ: strategy-focused; firm performance / competitive advantage outcomes central.
A pure conceptual paper fits an AMR-style stack better. A hypothesis-testing study aimed purely at firm-performance outcomes with no organizational-theory surprise may belong at SMJ — at ASQ a thin contribution dressed in a strong method will not survive screening, however clean the identification.
Bottleneck triage sheet
When a draft is thrashing, score each row 0–2 (0 = broken, 1 = shaky, 2 = solid). The lowest row is your next skill — at ASQ a low "surprise" or "so-what" score outranks any polished exhibit. Craft never rescues a thin idea here.
ASQ BOTTLENECK TRIAGE score(0-2) route if lowest
surprise / puzzle ............. [ ] asq-topic-selection
theoretical engine (mechanism) [ ] asq-theory-development
dialogue w/ org-theory canon .. [ ] asq-literature-positioning
design fits the question ...... [ ] asq-methods
data -> theory link is visible [ ] asq-data-analysis
"so what" for organization theory[ ] asq-contribution-framing
exhibits show the data structure [ ] asq-tables-figures
prose is process-, not variance- [ ] asq-writing-style
-------------------------------------------------------------
RULE: fix the lowest theory row before touching any craft row.
qualitative & quantitative are equally first-class — method follows the question.
Anti-patterns
- Do not skip
asq-theory-developmentand rush to data — at ASQ the contribution is theoretical, not methodological. - Do not let
asq-tables-figurespolish exhibits before the contribution is settled. - Do not let
asq-rebuttaldraft a response letter before the manuscript itself has been revised. - Do not assume "more sophisticated method" substitutes for a new organizational insight.
