Description:
IIMB Management Review (IMR) is a quarterly journal brought out by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore. Addressed to
management practitioners, researchers and academics, IMR aims to engage rigorously with practices, concepts and ideas in the field of
management, with an emphasis on providing managerial insights, in a reader friendly format.
To this end
IMR invites manuscripts
that provide novel managerial insights in any of the core business functions. The manuscript should be rigorous, that is, the findings
should be supported by either empirical data or a well-justified theoretical model, and well written. While these two requirements are
necessary for acceptance, they do not guarantee acceptance. The sole criterion for publication is contribution to the extant management
literature.
Although all manuscripts are welcome, our special emphasis is on papers that focus on emerging economies throughout the world.
Such papers may either improve our understanding of markets in such economies through novel analyses or build models by taking into
account the special characteristics of such economies to provide guidance to managers.
Full-length research articles (up to 8,000
words) on all the business functions, aspects of policy and management pedagogy form the core of the journal; at present focussed discussion
and interview papers, and book reviews are also featured.
IMR is a peer-reviewed journal and follows a 'double blind' review
process. All papers submitted to
IMR go through a preliminary review at the editorial desk and those considered appropriate
are sent to an Associate Editor. On the recommendation of the Associate Editor, the article may be rejected or assigned to two reviewers
from the editorial board.
