Robert Marks stood down as the Editor in Chief at the beginning of July, 2010, after thirteen years in the post (and a previous thirteen years as the Economics Area Editor). The new Editor in Chief is Professor Baljit Sidhu, also the Accounting Area Editor.

The Australian Journal of Management has been classified as an "A" journal in the final journal rankings of the Australian Research Council's Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) initiative.

The Australian Journal of Management is now published by SAGE Publications. The first SAGE issue (of three per year -- April, August and December) is Volume 35, Number 1, which appeared in April 2010.

As a result of the exclusive contract between the University and SAGE, the complete text of AJM papers will no longer be posted here, although the authors, titles, and abstracts will still be available. The texts of the papers are available at the SAGE site, Australian Journal of Management.

In 2007 the Australian Journal of Management was selected for indexing in the Web of Science Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), the world's foremost citation index, published by Thomson Reuters, in the USA. The AJM has also been accepted into Scopus, Elsevier's abstract and citation database.

The JOURNAL has been indexed, or has had its contents noted, by Public Affairs Information Service (USA); Australian Public Affairs Information Service; Social Science Citation Index (USA); Current Contents/Social & Behavioral Sciences (USA); Management Contents (USA); Journal of Economic Literature (USA); and ANBAR. The JOURNAL is available via UnCover and in reference systems produced by EBSCO Information Services, the Information Access Company (IAC) and UMI, in micro-form, electronic or paper formats.

THE Australian Journal of Management was founded at the fledgling Australian Graduate School of Management in 1976. The foundation editor was Ray Ball, followed by Chris Adam, John Conybeare, the late Vic Taylor, Phillip Yetton, John Roberts, Robert Marks, and Baljit Sidhu. In September 1995 the Australian Vice-Chancellor's Committee (AVCC) awarded a research team based at the Australian Graduate School of Management a grant to study reader acceptance of an electronic version of the Australian Journal of Management (AJM). The online version you are reading is a product of the AVCC Grant.

Objectives

THE objectives of the Australian Journal of Management are to encourage and publish research in the field of management.

Scope

THE terms management and research are both broadly defined. The former includes the management of firms, groups, industries, regulatory bodies, government and other institutions. The latter encompasses both discipline- and problem-based research. Consistent with this policy the Australian Journal of Management publishes research in accounting, applied economics, finance, industrial relations, political science, psychology, statistics, and other disciplines, provided the application is to management, as well as research in areas such as marketing, corporate strategy, operations management, organisation development, decision analysis, and other problem-focused paradigms.
