  8. SMJ is the flagship journal of the strategic management discipline • The journal is now 30+ years old • 200+ people seat on the editorial review board • The favorable position of SMJ is attributable to the thoughtful leadership, organization, and effort provided by Dan and Mari Lou Schendel during the first quarter-century of the journal • The editors are committed to continuing to make SMJ the most desired destination for the best research in strategic management

  9. Three Co-Editors, eleven Associate Editors, and the Managing Editor are focused on three goals for SMJ reviews for all submissions: they value reviews that are developmental, open-minded, and timely • They seek to help authors develop research that both addresses important gaps in existing approaches to strategic management and creates new perspectives that move beyond existing theories and arguments • Hence, they view their role as taking an “author’s perspective” on submissions, with the goal of helping to make the work as strong as possible, whether it is published in SMJ or, instead, ends up being targeted for other journals
