Design/methodology/approach - The author has assembled 100 PhD rules of the game from the author’s work over many years with masters and doctoral students. Each rule is accompanied by some further short guidance. Additional citations are included directing readers to resources embellishing the 100 PhD rules of the game. Findings - The paper documents 100 PhD rules of the game. Research limitations/implications - There are many other PhD rules of the game not included in the author’s list of 100 PhD rules of the game. Originality/value - This paper is a one-stop-shop brief introduction to the author’s 100 PhD rules of the game.
