This is the ninth episode of Listen to the Editors, a series of interviews with journal editors to unveil the trends in research for Operations and Supply Chain Management. In this episode, we are interviewing the editor-in-chief for the Academy of Management Review, Jay Barney. I believe it is vital to increase the reach of OM/SCM research to a broader audience. That would attract more students to our Ph.D. programs and keep our vibrant area alive. So I decided to reach a non-OSCM journal to a) make their processes more visible to our community and b) learn how we can appeal to their readers. I also asked some editors from OM/SCM journals to send me questions, and I am immensely indebted with them for their insights. The following is an outline of the interview (on most podcast players, you can click on the timestamp and jump to the point of the audio file): (2:17) Jay reflects on the mission of the AMR (3:45) Jay discusses changes in the mission of the journal over time. (5:03) General information on the journal: issues/year, sections of the journal, papers/year. (6:04) Submission levels (6:36) Acceptance rates of the journal. (7:08) Editorial process. Breakdown of the rejects by stage. Main causes for desk-rejects. (11:31) Distinctive editorial policy for AMR: two rounds of reviews. (14:05) Term of the editor (14:15) Why Jay Barney decided to be the editor-in-chief for AMR (18:35) Why AMR does not have an OM/SCM department or associate editor. (23:15) How do the authors suggest associate editors? (26:07) The main KPI for AMR is time: if the editor or the reviewer takes too long to act, Jay sends them a personal email. (28:55) AMR had 7.3 million downloads in 2018. (30:19) Breakdown of downloads by country. (30:56) Why the diversity of the authors (i.e., non-native English speakers) is increasing in AMR. (31:55) Open calls for papers (34:21) How AMR papers are publicized outside academic audiences. (37:06) How AMR impacts the managerial audience. (41:27) What are phenomenal theories? How different are they from empirical studies. (43:50) Building theories from cases, mathematical models, simulations. (48:10) How to publish interventionist research on AMR (49:29) Questions from editors-in-chief of OM/SCM journals: how can OSCM scholars have an impact on the general management theory. (56:45) It is quite hard interviewing Jay Barney and not talking about RBV... I could not resist. In fact, I was just forwarding Tom’s question... ;-) The host for this show is Iuri Gavronski, Associate Professor for the Graduate Program in Business for the UNISINOS Jesuit University.

Acknowledgements: ================= I want to thank the editors that sent questions for the interview. I hope I had relayed them correctly. Mark Pagell Co-Editor-in-Chief The Journal of Supply Chain Management Why OSCM scholars look to general management for ideas and inspiration, but the reverse does not seem to occur? Subodha Kumar Deputy Editor and Department Editor, Production and Operations Management Journal How can AOM journals reach out to the OM community and vice-versa? Walter Zinn Co-editor-in-chief Journal of Business Logistics Please say hi to him in my name as he used to be at Ohio State for a while when I first got here. Do you foresee that in the near future OM/SCM research might either gain or lose “space” in the general management literature? Why? Tyson Browning Co-editor-in-chief for Journal of Operations Management It might be interesting to ask him what (theories, methods, etc.) the broad management community should be learning from the OSCM community. Thomas J. Goldsby Co-Editor-in-Chief, Journal of Business Logistics 1) What supply chain-related questions would be of interest to the AMR readership? Are there domains of particular intrigue that our community should consider? 2) Jay was instrumental in forwarding the RBV theory of competitive strategy. Clearly, SCM researchers have embraced it in a big way to frame and explain hypothesized relationships in their inquiries. Does he have any suggestions of limits to RBV or aspects of its application that he sees as ill-suited to SCM inquiry? 3) Conversely, how does he see RBV adapting to multi-organizational resource collaboration in SCM -- in other words, do you see SCM areas calling for further exploration and development with RBV application?
