[Global Business and Organizational Excellence] is directed to executives, managers, and consultants in business, government, and nonprofit organizations, and to faculty and students of business and management. Authors must keep this readership in mind.

Content requirements. Manuscripts are considered for publication with the understanding that they represent original material and are offered exclusively and without fee to [Global Business and Organizational Excellence]. Articles must not have been published previously and may not simultaneously be submitted elsewhere. We seek material that will offer our readership new insights into, and new approaches to, organizational competitiveness, profitability, and work effectiveness.

Articles should be informative, analytical, and practical, but not highly technical. They should exhibit clarity, brevity, and pertinence, with short and clear titles. All accepted manuscripts are subject to editing.

A brief – 50 words or less – biographical sketch of the author should accompany the article. The sketch should name the author’s position, company, or other professional organization, and field of expertise.

A 100- to 125-word summary of the article should also be provided.

Submission requirements. [Global Business and Organizational Excellence] publishes both general-interest articles and academically refereed articles. All unsolicited general-interest manuscripts should be discussed with or sent to Jane G. Bensahel, Editor-in-Chief, [Global Business and Organizational Excellence], 212-852-0360 or jane.bensahel@orcww.com . All unsolicited articles to be academically refereed should be discussed with or sent to Yahia Zoubir, Editor-in-Chief, [Global Business and Organizational Excellence], [phone] or GBOE@euromed-management.com.

Articles should range from 3,000-7,500 words (12-30 pages in 12-point serif font, double-spaced, with one-inch margins on all sides, and with manuscript pages numbered). Articles and their accompanying exhibits may be submitted via e-mail. Alternatively, prospective authors should submit one hard copy of the manuscript, printed on one side only of 8-1/2”x11” or A4 paper, along with a CD-ROM containing (a) an electronic copy of the article, preferably as a Word document, (b) any tables, also in Word, and (c) all other exhibits in black/white, in .tiff or .eps format or as a PowerPoint file. Also, authors who have used any lengthy quotations must send photocopies of original sources so that we may confirm the absolute accuracy of the quotation.

Footnotes. For general-interest articles, explanatory footnotes should be kept to a minimum and limited to only those indispensable to the subject. Such footnotes, and all footnotes to articles to be academically refereed should appear double-spaced on a separate page at the end of the article and conform to the following style:
