SMS is proud to publish three leading journals that are central to its mission of fostering and supporting rigorous and practice-engaged strategic management research. These journals publish top-quality work applicable to researchers and practitioners in the field. The Strategic Management Journal, Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, and Global Strategy Journal publish papers that are selected through rigorous double-blind review processes. Prominent scholars hold Co-Editor and Associate Editor positions and participate in the journals’ Editorial Review Boards. These leaders review all submissions, work with authors to improve their papers, and make the final decisions to accept or reject the work.
