Big international companies are deconstructing themselves and creating new structures to survive in the new world order. Concepts like reengineering, rightsizing, network organizations and the virtual corporation are fast becoming the common theme in business practice. International strategic alliances are also on the increase based on the notion that no single company and no single country can alone be a successful player in the new global game. The organizational applications and managerial implications of these technology resources warrant a forum for the discussion of these issues. The Journal of Global Information Management (JGIM) has an important role to play in providing such a forum for researchers and practitioners to share leading-edge knowledge in the global information resource management area.

TopMissionThe Journal of Global Information Management (JGIM) publishes original material concerned with all aspects of global information resources management. JGIM is the primary forum for researchers and practitioners to disseminate the evolving knowledge in the theory and practice related to information technology and management of information resources at the international level. The journal emphasizes the managerial and organizational facets of information technology resources management. Articles published in JGIM deal with a vast number of issues concerning usage, failure, success, policies, strategies, and applications of information technology in organizations in and across developed, emerging and developing nations. TopReviews and TestimonialsToday’s is a world in which organizations can keep projects going non-stop by passing work among shift teams in different parts of the globe and in which MNEs can achieve worldwide consistency of processes and services by means of common information systems and knowledge repositories. JGIM challenges our field to understand phenomena like these and provides an invaluable resource for the scholars who are rising to that challenge. - M. Lynne Markus—The John W. Poduska, Sr. Professor of Information and Process Management, Bentley University JGIM is the first international journal in the IS field focusing on providing a research platform for IS scholars around the world to study important IS issues from a global perspective. When the world's economy becomes increasingly globalized, so do businesses. As a result, IS research too needs to take a global perspective. JGIM has established itself as one of the top tier international journals on important global IS issues, including cross-cultural IS issues. - Wayne Wei Huang,Executive Dean, School of Management, Xian Jiaotong University, Professor of Management Information Systems, Ohio University “Information and information technology are fundamental
enablers in the globalization of world economy, and especially are the
important enablers for business innovation and transformation today.
They give the emerging economies a unique touch unprecedented by the
developed economies. JGIM provides a great channel for IS scholars from
both economies to share their experience and perspectives, with rich
insights from their unique economic, culture and historical background.
It is a great journal for the community to share and enjoy a global view
of IT. “ - Lihua Huang, Professor, School of Management at Fudan University, China “JGIM is one of the best places to publish work related to culture and information systems.” – Michael D. Myers, Professor Of Information Systems, The University of Auckland, New Zealand “In
this globalizing world, the success of many firms depends critically on
effective information management across national boundaries. Journal of Global Information Management
provides perhaps the most visible forum for addressing global and
cultural issues on information management. Countries covered by the
Journal are very diverse, and so are the theoretical frameworks and
methods adopted. It is an excellent outlet and source for articles on
information management from a global perspective.” - Kwok Leung, Fellow, Academy of International Business, Chair Professor of Management, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong "JGIM
is a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners because its
collection of papers provides global and cross-cultural insights into
key information management issues in the context of an increasingly
complex and inter-connected world." - Bernard C.Y. Tan, Associate Provost, National University of Singapore, Past President, Association for Information Systems "The world's economy is rapidly growing with trade between nations and regions. Organizations are moving from domestic to multinational and global. No other publication has for almost 20 years been studying the role of information systems in enabling global commerce and enabling multinational organizations as they move to worldwide activity. This publication also has presented numerous views of the interaction between information systems and culture for nations, organizations, and individuals."
- Fred Niederman, Saint Louis University, USA
"Information management and information technology management are no question getting more and more global. Important issues for both research and practice include IT (off-shoring) outsourcing, global supply chain, and globally distributed work, to name a few. JGIM offers an important and critical platform for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss their experiences and perspectives on these important issues. I highly recommend this journal to my students who are interested in knowing and understanding global information management."

*Research Article - Contributions to this section are full research papers. The
research must be complete and make substantial theoretical and/or empirical contributions
to knowledge in the field. Papers using various theoretical and methodological approaches
are invited.
*Research Note - This section welcomes research that is novel and complete but not
as comprehensive as to qualify as a full research paper, e.g., exploratory studies
and methodological papers. Rigor and quality are still essential in this section.
*Research Review - Reviews should be insightful and carefully crafted articles that
conceptualize research areas and synthesize prior research. Research review articles
must provide new insights that advance our understanding of the research areas,
and help in identifying and developing future research directions. Research review
articles can be between 3000-8000 words.
Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts that are consistent to the following
submission themes:
(a) Cross-National Studies. These need not be cross-culture per se. These studies
lead to understanding of IT as it leaves one nation and is built/bought/used in
another. Generally, these studies bring to light transferability issues and they
challenge if practices in one nation transfer (and if they don’t, they shed light
on how or why not).
(b) Cross-Cultural Studies. These need not be cross-nation. Cultures could be across
regions that share a similar culture. They can also be within nations (subcultures,
ethnicities, etc.). These studies lead to understanding of IT as it leaves one culture
and is built/bought/used in another. Generally, these studies bring to light transferability
issues and they challenge if practices in one culture transfer (and if they don’t,
they shed light on how or why not).
(c) JGIM continues to welcome single country studies but encourage authors to consider weaving the country context throughout the manuscript thereby situating the study in the country context. In addition, findings of these studies can be compared to similar research from better represented nations.
(d) Studies of the development, implementation, management and use of IT in multinational,
transnational, inter-national and global organizations.
