N2 - We offer lean scholarship as an approach to developing a portfolio of high-quality, high-impact papers. By lean scholarship, we refer to iterative experimentation, stakeholder engagement, and collective learning in the process of generating a portfolio of papers. Lean scholarship starts with an entrepreneurial mindset and involves creating a minimum viable paper, exploring its validity, and adding a plausible paper to one’s portfolio. Lean scholarship requires managing the portfolio by periodically deciding whether to persevere, pivot, or terminate each paper.
