Strategy and organization research in operations management

Abstract

In a September 2015 editorial (Guide and Ketokivi, 2015), the co-editors-in-chief of the Journal of Operations Management restructured the management of submissions into departments by substantive domain. This essay expands upon their brief description of the Strategy and Organization Department. While chiefly seeking to clarify what we see as the department's content domain, we also offer insights on how to maximize the contribution of operations management research to the strategy and organization literature.
