The aim of the Journal of Management Policy and Practice is to publish research that conceptualizes, tests, or extends management theory. It is also the aim of JMPP for all research to have an end benefit to practitioners and policy makers. All empirical methods including, but not limited to, qualitative, quantitative, field, laboratory, meta-analytic, and combination methods are welcome. Accepted manuscripts must make strong empirical and/or theoretical contributions and highlight the significance of those contributions to the management field. JMPP is not tied to any particular discipline, level of analysis, or national context. Authors should strive to be bold but theoretically grounded in their research. 
     
  The target acceptance bounds of JMPP run between 12% and 18%. All articles go through a double-blind review process, and acceptance decisions are made within forty-five days of submission. Authors of unaccepted papers are free to submit their papers to another journal.

Author Spotlight
Mentoring is widely recognized as a valuable tool for enhancing performance in both educational and workplace settings. It has been linked to improved self-regulation, teaching practices, academic success, and career development. Mentoring can significantly impact various performance indicators, making it a critical component of professional growth and development strategies.
Organizations are such integral parts of the human experience that the concept of a “group” seems inseparable from the concept of being “human” overall. For as long as people have had to come together to attain a shared goal, so too have organizations existed to connect separate individuals and unite them with a common thread. It’s no surprise that some of the greatest minds in the world have devoted time to studying how groups of people affect what’s both within and around them.
