JOM Workflow Router (jmgmt-workflow)
Overview
This is the router. It tells you which jmgmt- skill to use at the current stage* of a manuscript aimed at the Journal of Management (JOM) — the Southern Management Association's general-management flagship, published by SAGE. JOM spans organizational behavior, human resource management, strategic management, entrepreneurship, and research methods (plus related industrial/organizational psychology). It rewards a clear theoretical contribution paired with rigorous method, and — uniquely among the field's top journals — it runs a celebrated review-article and meta-analysis tradition: invited and unsolicited Review Issues appear biannually (January and July).
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as JOM. Operational tells that you are at JOM and not a sibling or a generic top journal: a hard 50-page limit that includes everything (text, notes, references, tables, figures); a 15-word title and 250-word abstract cap entered in the portal; masked (double-blind) review enforced by an anonymized data transparency table that discloses overlap with the authors' other papers; APA (7th) style; and a real appetite for systematic reviews / meta-analyses as standalone contributions. Editor-in-Chief: Cynthia E. Devers (Virginia Tech) (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准). Re-verify volatile specifics on the SAGE JOM author-instructions page.
When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?" on a JOM manuscript
- A draft needs its current bottleneck diagnosed
- Work is ping-ponging between theory, design, analysis, framing, and the response letter
- A JOM decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into revision mode
- The team is deciding between an empirical paper and a review/meta-analysis route
