In addition, GOM brings you articles examining a wide range of topics in organizations from an international and cross-cultural perspective.
And, as an added bonus, Group & Organization Management extends its depth and immediacy of coverage by publishing Special Issues dedicated to important topics or proceedings from recent conferences.
In-Depth and Diverse

FOR JOURNALS USING RECOMMENDED REVIEWERS
As part of the submission process you will be asked to provide the names of [X] peers who could be called upon to review your manuscript. Recommended reviewers should be experts in their fields and should be able to provide an objective assessment of the manuscript. Please be aware of any conflicts of interest when recommending reviewers. Examples of conflicts of interest include (but are not limited to) the below:
- The reviewer should have no prior knowledge of your submission
- The reviewer should not have recently collaborated with any of the authors
- Reviewer nominees from the same institution as any of the authors are not permitted
Please note that the Editors are not obliged to invite any recommended/opposed reviewers to assess your manuscript.
ANNOUNCEMENT: Final Methods Review Option for Conditional Acceptance Decisions of Manuscripts that Use Quantitative Methods
For manuscripts that include quantitative analyses, please note that Group & Organization Management, has implemented an optional "methods review" step as part of the review process. That is, when such manuscripts reach the stage where the Action Editor is contemplating a "Conditional Acceptance" decision, he or she may request GOM’s Methods Associate Editor, Brian Miller, provide a final methods review. Specifically, a review of the methods and statistical analyses reported will be requested to ascertain if there is a need for additional information or clarification and/or any errors that require correction. The findings of this methods review will be taken into account by the Action Editor when issuing the subsequent editorial decision.
GOM Now Guideline for Authors
Since this manuscript approach is a bit different from traditional ones, we wanted to provide authors some additional guidance. Below is a rough outline of how to structure your article. Articles should consist about 2500 words (excluding online supplemental material).
Introduction
- What is your research topic? Why is this topic important and timely? Why do business leaders at all levels need to know about your research?
- What is known about research in this area specifically relevant to the research reported in the manuscript?
- How does your manuscript add to the body of knowledge?
- Inclusion of a theoretical mechanism is optional.
- Include your hypotheses or research questions.
- It might be helpful to review medical and nursing journals. These fields tend to use shorter introductions than our field.
Methods/Results
- In these sections, we are looking for you to provide your reader with the basic ideas. Who were the participants? How did you recruit them? What did you ask participants to do? How did you collect data (e.g., measures you used for survey data)?
- How did you analyze your data? What did you find (i.e., results)?
- You may use statistical terminology here, but just explain the terminology (i.e., do not assume your readers know terms like CFA and SEM).
- Methods/Results Appendix: Manuscripts must be methodologically sound for when someone “looks under the hood.” For example, here is where you can include full CFA results or statistics used to justify aggregating data. Just because you do not include some of these things in the manuscript, doesn’t mean they haven’t been done. Therefore, please include full methods/results sections as supplemental material. These sections should look like a traditional Methods/Results section. This will help speed up the review process. These sections will be published online so that readers can go a bit deeper if they choose.
Discussion
- Summarize what you found in one paragraph.
- Explain to the reader why these findings are important and helpful for practice, that is, why do the findings reported in the manuscript matter?
- Provide clear and useful practical implications. What should practitioners do with your findings? How do they apply your findings to the workplace?
- What are future research questions that we should be asking?
ORCID
As part of our commitment to ensuring an ethical, transparent and fair peer review process SAGE is a supporting member of ORCID, the Open Researcher and Contributor ID. ORCID provides a unique and persistent digital identifier that distinguishes researchers from every other researcher, even those who share the same name, and, through integration in key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission, supports automated linkages between researchers and their professional activities, ensuring that their work is recognized.
The collection of ORCID iDs from corresponding authors is now part of the submission process of this journal. If you already have an ORCID iD you will be asked to associate that to your submission during the online submission process. We also strongly encourage all co-authors to link their ORCID ID to their accounts in our online peer review platforms. It takes seconds to do: click the link when prompted, sign into your ORCID account and our systems are automatically updated. Your ORCID iD will become part of your accepted publication’s metadata, making your work attributable to you and only you. Your ORCID iD is published with your article so that fellow researchers reading your work can link to your ORCID profile and from there link to your other publications.
If you do not already have an ORCID iD please follow this link to create one or visit our ORCID homepage to learn more.
Sage Choice
If you or your funder wish your article to be freely available online to nonsubscribers immediately upon publication (gold open access), you can opt for it to be included in SAGE Choice, subject to payment of a publication fee. The manuscript submission and peer review procedure is unchanged. On acceptance of your article, you will be asked to let SAGE know directly if you are choosing SAGE Choice. To check journal eligibility and the publication fee, please visit SAGE Choice. For more information on open access options and compliance at SAGE, including self author archiving deposits (green open access) visit SAGE Publishing Policies on our Journal Author Gateway.
