Scope of submissionsÌý

The Australian Journal of Management is interested in original, innovative and highly rigorous research. The domain of study (be it defined by country, management problem, or methodological approach) is much less important than quality and interest to both an academic readership and, preferably, a sophisticated practitioner one.

To be of interest to this journal, a submission would need a compelling motivation that would generaliseÌýto a wide audience, with strong theoretical basis with good empirical design, or offer a strong advance in theory.

Prizes

  • Starting this year, the Australian Journal of Management has established an outstanding reviewer prize, one in the area of accounting and finance and one for other disciplines. The award is based on nominations by the Associate Editors for reviews undertaken in the previous year, with the criteria being the number of reviews completed, turnaround time and most importantly, the quality of reviews.

    2020 winnersÌý

    Jing Yu, The University of Sydney, Australia

  • The Australian Journal of Management awards a prize for the most outstanding paper published during the previous year. From 2019, the award has been renamed in honour of Ray Ball, who was the founding editor of the journal in 1976.
