International Journal of Management Development (IJMD)

Call for Papers

The International Journal of Management Development (IJMD) invites submission of papers. The journal is dedicated to publishing papers based on scholarly empirical and theoretical research on various dimensions of management.  In pursuit of its goal to promote and foster a better understanding management development, the Journal encourages prospective contributors to bring their skills in theoretical and applied research to bear on current and emerging management issues and challenges that contemporary organizations have to contend with.  IJMD attaches particular value to papers that incorporate fresh perspectives on these issues and challenges and contribute to greater efficiency and social and environmental responsibility at different levels of management across various forms of organizations.  One major premise of the Journal is that effective management practice requires a more effective synthesis of practical management techniques and theoretical research in management.  Consistent with this premise, IJMD aims to provide a forum for analysis of sound management research, for sharing of innovative management ideas and insights and for dissemination of practical case study experiences.  

The journal publishes original manuscripts, review papers, technical reports, case studies, conference reports, management reports, book reviews, notes, commentaries, and news. Please find subjects coverage below.
