The Journal Editorial Board invites manuscripts that address relevant business management and entrepreneurship topics using established and recognized scientific approaches, with an emphasis on work that is impactful or generalizable to national and international populations. Reports of quantitative research that use sophisticated research designs (e.g., Structural Equation Modeling) and reports of quantitative and qualitative research that adhere strictly to novel research methods are preferred. All manuscripts should include a comprehensive review of the literature that defines the research problem or issue being addressed and a thorough conclusion that discusses the implications and limitations of the research or argument.
