Dear all

We are delighted to announce that Cross Cultural Management: an International Journal has been selected for coverage in Thomson Reuters (ISI) Social Sciences Citation Index, and will receive an impact factor in June 2011.  CCM has been edited since 2007 by Professor Simon Dolan of <st1:placename w:st="on">ESADE</st1:placename> <st1:placename w:st="on">Business</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">School</st1:placetype>, <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Barcelona</st1:place></st1:city>, and seeks to be the leading source of research on multicultural management issues.

Reaction

Editor Simon Dolan says: 'This is a major achievement for the Journal and entering into an Impact Factor represents a new phase in the 17 years history of the Journal.  Getting this accreditation was my personal objective when I have accepted to become the Chief Editor, but I would never have achieved it without the very professional support of our dynamic editorial team (associate editors, active editorial board, special issue guest editors), fantastic assistants, and contributing authors. Our publisher, <st1:personname w:st="on">Martyn Lawrence</st1:personname> from Emerald, believed in us and provided constant support, and the administration in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">ESADE</st1:placename> <st1:placename w:st="on">Business</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">School</st1:placetype></st1:place> enabled me to devote a substantial chunk of my time to manage the Journal.'

This is what members of the Editorial Board have to say about the journal:
