Editorial: The Innovation and Project Management Department in the Journal of Operations Management
Year: 2020
Type: editorial
Abstract: The department structure at the Journal of Operations Management (JOM) has evolved since its creation in 2016 (Browning & de Treville, 2018; Guide Jr & Ketokivi, 2015b).Part of this evolution was the creation of a department for Innovation and Project Management (IPM) in May of 2019.Although the department is a recent addition, JOM has published papers on the topics of innovation and project management (PM) since its founding in 1980.To help prospective authors and reviewers understand the expectations of the IPM department, it is useful to look back at what JOM has published (e.g., the IPM topics on which the papers have focused, and the research methods they have used) and how this trajectory has changed over the years.These patterns can inform current IPM researchers and suggest opportunities for future work.As this department enters its second year of operation, we are taking the opportunity to bring the JOM community up to date on what is happening with the department and share some of our thoughts and aspirations for its growth.
