Also, Torben Pedersen, Laszlo Tihanyi and I as the new editors of the Advances in International Management Series are very please to announce that the former editors, Michael Hitt and Joseph Cheng, have received a Emerald Literati Award as Leading Editors. Their citation states:
"Joseph Cheng and Michael Hitt recently stepped down as Series Editors of the Advances in International Management series. The Series is highly regarded in the field and much of the success is due to the hard work and dedication of Joe and Michael. We thank them both very much for their service on the Series and wish them both the best for their future endeavours."
Following in their footsteps is easy as they left us a well plowed field.
Joe and Mike will be receiving their award at the AOM conference at the Literati Awards Ceremony. We encourage you to seek them out and congratulate them.
