Message from the Editor: Organizational Research Methods (ORM) brings relevant methodological developments to a wide range of researchers in organizational and management studies and promotes a more effective understanding of current and new methodologies and their application in organizational settings.
In its very short life, ORM has achieved great visibility as evidenced by its placement in the top-10 list of most prestigious journals (Zickar & Highhouse, The Industrial-Organizational Psychologist, 2001). As additional evidence of impact, the ORM is 9th out of 81 Management journals with an impact factor of 2.548 (2007 Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Reports®). The speed at which ORM has positioned itself among the group of elite scholarly journals is an achievement that few publications can claim.
My goal as Editor is to continue to publish high-quality, peer-reviewed articles, regardless of methodological and philosophical approach and level of analysis, that will help advance organizational and management studies. ORM is looking for high-quality manuscripts from the qualitative and quantitative domains as well as micro and macro perspectives. I also want to increase the visibility and impact of ORM. To do so, ORM will provide feedback to authors in no more than 90 days since the day a manuscript is submitted. I will personally keep track of how long it takes for each author to receive feedback on his or her submission. Second, I have created a very large database of ad hoc reviewers that will allow ORM to broaden the expertise of its reviewers base. Third, the new Editorial Board includes more members from outside the United States, many of whom add a unique set of areas of methodological expertise and perspectives to the Board. Finally, I will personally review the performance of each reviewer to make sure the content and tone of the reviews reflect professionalism and courtesy.
Please feel free to contact me directly at any time if you have questions or comments about ORM or about a potential submission. I will be glad to hear any ideas you may have to enhance the visibility and impact of ORM further and to discuss the possibility or submitting your work to ORM. Also, if you would like to become a reviewer for Organizational Research Methods, please fill out our reviewer form.
Thank you for your interest in ORM. I look forward to working with you.
Sincerely,
Robert J. Vandenburg, Editor
Organizational Research Methods
