The Academy of Management Perspectives is a journal of The Academy of Management . Founded in 1936, The Academy is the leading international organization of academics and practitioners that works to foster the advancement of research, learning, teaching, and practice in the management field. It has about 18,000 members in more than 100 countries.
Management research has expanded significantly in recent decades, making it difficult for scholars to follow advances in the multiple, specialized sub-fields. The Academy of Management Perspectives addresses this by publishing important work that synthesizes and translates theoretical and empirical research in management's distinct sub-fields in an authoritative evidential manner that makes these findings accessible for scholars outside that sub-field. Research suitable for publication in AMP includes: (a) reviews of what we already know; (b) integration of diverse theories and empirical findings that inform in a new and interesting way; (c) forward-looking expositions that integrate and articulate existing theory and findings with new and provocative ideas; and (d) integration of theory and research in management with related advances in other non-management sciences and disciplines. Single articles or collections of related articles are welcome.
Articles in AMP translate research findings for a non-expert audience and present new evidence that describes the world of management and business. AMP is open to the wide range of topics represented within the Academy of Management, although special attention will be given to manuscripts with broad appeal to the "thought leader" audience.
The editorial process for AMP submissions is also different. Authors are encouraged to submit a short proposal outlining their project and get feedback on their approach before submitting a full text article.
