Beyond: Essays, Poems, Photos from the Workplace

A note from our friend Sarah Wells:

I’m excited to announce the launch of a new trade publication, Beyond, the magazine of Weatherhead School of Management at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Beyond is a tri-quarterly print publication that will also have a prominent and active web and social presence. The first print issue is scheduled for release in early winter 2016. Issues will be distributed in February, June, and October.

Beyond publishes stories of businesses and business leaders that exemplify the use of design for innovative approaches to management as well as exemplars of business as an agent of world benefit, thus advancing the principles of business management pioneered, taught and practiced by the Weatherhead School of Management at Case Western Reserve University.

The magazine’s web presence features reader-submitted articles, supplementary interviews, podcasts, inspirational quotes and other goodies for the savvy, sophisticated, and successful businessperson. The magazine will launch its web contents in January 2016.

There are four columns open to submissions, all related to work. I’m looking for great stories written well. Three of the columns are writing (two brief prose, one poetry) and one is art/photography.

A Case of the Mondays

This humor column looks for the funny in the workplace. Word limit: 250.

Above and Beyond

Share what has inspired you in your work life that makes your work not just bearable but enjoyable. Word limit: 250.

Work in Verse

Beyond will publish one new work-related poem a month on the website and will include one poem in each print issue.

InSights

Share photographs of inspirational/aesthetic elements that inspire you in your workspace. Can be submitted via our submission system or using the #BeyondInSight on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.

Beyond will offer $40 for work published online and $100 for the pieces that are selected for the print publication.

The submission system is now open!

Visit https://beyond.submittable.com/submit for complete guidelines. Email beyondmag@case.edu if you have any questions.

Thank you!

With joy—
