    **********APOLOGIES FOR ANY CROSS-POSTING**********

     

     

    The Editor-in-Chief, Professor Jan Selmer, is currently seeking papers for the Journal of Global Mobility: The Home of Expatriate Management Research (JGM), to be launched in 2013.  JGM provides an outlet for research on expatriate management and other topics of global mobility. JGM caters to a community of scholars and practitioners interested in theoretical and empirical perspectives of physical global mobility as well as antecedents, correlates and consequences of activities and phenomena associated with global

    mobility.

     

    The journal is especially interested in exploring new domains of global mobility or new insights gained from re-examining established topics. While preferring empirical contributions, achieved with quantitative or qualitative methodology, or a mix of them, rigorous theoretical developments as well as focused but comprehensive literature reviews are also welcome.

    JGM focuses primarily on white-collar, skilled workers/professionals and their immediate context at work and outside work.
