The British Journal of Management (BJM) Launches a New Section: Management Knowledge and Education
The British Journal of Management (BJM) is excited to launch its Management Knowledge and Education section which incorporates three new article types specific to this section, as detailed below, all of which are open for submission at this time:
Management theory articles must focus on disciplinary developments with educational implications. These articles should be based on an empirically informed contribution to theory in any of the areas normally considered by BJM, but with the caveat that the contribution has strong educational implications (which are developed persuasively) for how the subject can or should be taught.
Education theory articles are empirically informed articles on pedagogy (or other conceptualisations of education theory), based on research in management education contexts, that have clear theoretical and practical contributions.
Management educator articles take an essay form, strongly connected to, and making speculative contributions to, disciplinary or education theory. In addition, these essays must be clearly personally relevant to the author: management educators contributing in this way should consider the development of their own learning and/or ongoing practical and theoretical challenges that they face in business schools, leading to new research questions for the field.
Further details can be found in this presentation and in our Author Guidelines.
The following three exemplary papers will be the first BJM Management Knowledge and Education papers to be published – look out for them in early 2024!
- Dirk Lindebaum and Peter Fleming, ‘An epistemological deconstruction of ChatGPT and its role in management knowledge: Mind that siren song’.
- April L. Wright, Sandra Pereira, Jonathan Staggs and Kathryn Hartwell, ‘Institutional logics and risk: Navigating frontline professional work in extreme events’.
- Katy Mason, Lisa Anderson, Kate Black and Ashley Roberts, ‘Pedagogy is not a dirty word: a shout-out for the value of management education research’.
We look forward to receiving submissions.
