Globalizing the Asia Pacific Journal of Management
نویسنده
چکیده
In 2007, the editorial home of the Asia Pacific Journal of Management will be leaving Asia for the first time—in fact leaving its founding school, the National University of Singapore (NUS), for the first time. Founded in 1983, APJM is the oldest and most prominent academic journal in the management field that is in Asia, on Asia, and of Asia. The move out of Asia is significant, because it unambiguously signals that APJM is globalizing. Similar to maturing young adults leaving their parents’ house, it is time for APJM, as a maturing journal, to leave its home base. As the first non-Asia-based (and non-NUS-based) Editor-in-Chief in the history of APJM, I have taken over the responsibilities with a grateful heart for the vote of confidence extended to me by Andrew Delios (NUS), my predecessor and editorial mentor, and the officers of the Asia Academy of Management (AAOM) led by President Chung Ming Lau (Chinese University of Hong Kong), who is also a Senior Editor. It is the hard work of Andrew and the previous generations of editors that has made APJM what it is now. Given that APJM has always been an “A” journal (remember, it starts with “Asia”—that is an A!), I am committed to making APJM stronger and better during my tenure (2007–2009) as Editor-in-Chief. Asia Pacific J Manage (2007) 24:1–7 DOI 10.1007/s10490-006-9028-x
