The SMJ is now inviting submissions for a special issue focusing on new theoretical and empirical research on the psychological origins of Strategic Management. This special issue seeks to merge traditional and modern perspectives in Strategic Management by exploring the psychological foundations of executive behavior, goal formation, resource formation and deployment, firm performance, strategy implementation and market efficiency. A more explicit recognition of the psychological foundations of strategy offers exciting new directions for research on strategic behavior and firm performance. The deadline for submissions is January 15, 2009.
