Call for New Co-Editors for The Journal of Supply Chain Management
Call for New Co-Editors for The Journal of Supply Chain Management
The Journal of Supply Chain Management is seeking a new Co-Editor-in-Chief. This call reflects the end of term for Mark Pagell (ending July 2022). The New Co-Editor will be appointed for a 3-year (renewable) term and will assume duties in July 2022. He/she will work with continuing Co-Editors Tingting Yan and Wendy Tate.
JSCM’s governance structure is designed so that editors are replaced one at a time. Hence, while this search is occurring earlier than planned, the Journal’s operations have not been interrupted and institutional knowledge has not been lost. In addition, JSCM’s governance documents are clear that searches for new editors are managed by an independent search committee.
Current or continuing editors have a very limited role in this process.
Please see the call for editors for details on how to nominate someone or apply yourself. And if you want to learn more about governance at the journal in general or this search process, in particular, please click on the links below.
