MIT Sloan Management Review is a scholarly journal published by Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The print edition of the MIT Sloan Management Review is published quarterly per year and is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Background

MIT Sloan Management Review (originally known as the Industrial Management Review) was founded in 1959 by the MIT Sloan School of Management.[1] In 2001, the Sloan Management Review added the university—Massachusetts Institute of Technology—to its official name and the journal has been called MIT Sloan Management Review since then. It is also commonly known by the acronym MIT SMR. MIT SMR has transformed from its original, print-only, form as an academic journal to a multi-format platform.

MIT SMR distributes content on the web, in print and on mobile and portable platforms, as well as via licensees and libraries around the world.

Content sourcing

MIT SMR gathers its content for presentation primarily in two ways:

Independent research and ideas

Since 1959, MIT SMR has been a forum for business-management innovators from around the world to present their ideas and research. Authors have included Christopher Bartlett, Max Bazerman, Erik Brynjolfsson, Henry Chesbrough, Clayton Christensen, Richard D’Aveni, Thomas Davenport, Sumantra Ghoshal, Daniel Goleman, Vijay Govindarajan, Lynda Gratton, Gary Hamel, Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Rhakesh Khurana, Philip Kotler, Ed Lawler, Thomas Malone, Costas Markides, Andrew McAfee, Rita McGrath, Henry Mintzberg, Nitin Nohria, C.K. Prahalad, John Quelch, James Brian Quinn, Peter Senge, and Lester Thurow.

MIT SMR-generated research and ideas

The MIT SMR Big Ideas[2] are collaborative inquiries capturing the thinking, reporting and scholarly research on the management implications of significant transformations in the business environment. Content includes interviews and original research.

Big ideas are the overviews on the management themes such as Sustainability[3] and Innovation, Data and Analytics and Social Business.

Content of the printed edition

The content for the MIT Sloan Management Review magazine splits into five main sections which are: Frontiers, Special Report, Research Features, Executive Briefings and Columns.

MIT Sloan Management Review magazine offers a variety of content types: Research-based, full length articles, shorter 'Frontiers' articles, Big ideas and online—only articles—blog posts, interviews, videos, other digital content.

The SJR Indicators

SCImago Journal Rank (SJR indicator)[4] is a measure of the scientific influence of scholarly journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals from which such citations come.[5]
