Editorial objectives
The Journal of Knowledge Management is a peer-reviewed bi-monthly publication dedicated to the exchange of the latest research and practical information on all aspects of managing knowledge in organisations. The journal publishes original research and case studies by academic, business and government contributors on strategies, tools, techniques and technologies for Knowledge Management. The focus of this journal is on the identification of innovative Knowledge Management strategies and the application of theoretical concepts of real world situations.
Reviewing process
The Journal of Knowledge Management is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. On the recommendation of reviewers, a paper will be:
accepted, meaning that it is suitable for publication with no or only minor editorial amendments, which can be managed during the editorial process
revised, meaning that it is potentially suitable for publication, but needs some further work
rejected, meaning that it is unsuitable for publication (often because it does not fit with the editorial objectives of the journal)
The review process is a constructive one, aimed at making good contributions better. The journal aims, above all, for the identification and implementation of innovative change strategies to facilitate business transformation towards organizational excellence. As such, reviewers will look for:
clarity of expression and readability
conformity to editorial objectives, i.e. is the paper about managing knowledge
implications and application: what does it all mean?
