The British Journal of Management is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal, which was established by David T. Otley in 1990, and is published by Wiley-Blackwell on behalf of the British Academy of Management.[1] The current editor-in-chief is Douglas Cumming of Florida Atlantic University, USA.[2]

The stated mission of the journal is to publish "empirical, conceptual and methodological articles across the full range of business and management disciplines", and to disseminate research that has the potential to make a "marked and positive impact on our social and work lives".[3]

The early history of the journal has been outlined by its second former editor-in-chief Gerard P. Hodgkinson.[4]

Special issues[]

Throughout its history the British Journal of Management has published "special issues", which focus on particular interdisciplinary themes. For example, it published a special issue titled 'Facing the Future: The Nature and Purpose of Management Research Re-assessed', in which a range of established researchers (including Neil Anderson, Christopher Grey, Peter Herriot, Anne Huff, Andrew Pettigrew, Karl Weick) responded to a focal paper by Ken Starkey and Paula Madan, which examined "the relevance gap in management research."[6][7] Recent special issues have included Impact of COVID‐19 (July 2020 issue), which explored new directions in management research and communications, and Big Data and Firm Performance (April 2019 issue), which investigated the theory and evidence linking the use of big data-related technologies by businesses with their performance.[8][9]
