The International Journal of Knowledge, Culture and Change Management examines the nature of the organization in all its forms and manifestations: businesses, from micro-enterprises to multinational corporations; institutions of formal learning, from pre-schools to universities; public sector agencies; and non-government and community sector organizations. Its concern also extends beyond the boundaries of organizations to consider the dynamics of supply chains, organizational alliances, networks, communities of practice and capacity building. Across all of these contexts, a pragmatic focus persists—to examine the ‘organization’ and ‘management’ of groups of people collaborating to productive ends, and to analyse what makes for success and sustainability.

The focus of the journal is on those intangible drivers which determine not only the livability of organizations for insiders, and their credibility and attraction to outsiders; but also their tangible results in the form of efficiency, effectiveness and productivity. The intangibles of knowledge, culture and change management do not appear on balance sheets, but ultimately do have an enormous impact on ‘bottom lines’. The journal attempts to address dynamics of knowledge, culture and change as they manifest themselves in organizations. The perspectives range from big picture analyses to detailed case studies which speak to the tangible value of organizational intangibles. They traverse a broad terrain, from theory and analysis to practical strategies.

The journal is relevant for academics in the fields of management, social sciences and education/training, research students, knowledge managers, trainers, industry consultants and knowledge management and change practitioners – anyone with an interest in, and concern for, cultural change in organizations.

The International Journal of Knowledge, Culture and Change Management is peer-reviewed, supported by rigorous processes of criterion-referenced article ranking and qualitative commentary, ensuring that only intellectual work of the greatest substance and highest significance is published.

The Organization community publishes into a family of journals. This consists of a series of thematically focused journals, as well as a highlights journal that republishes a selection of articles for the thematic journals. All papers accepted for publication will appear in one of the following thematic journals:

Management Education: An International Journal
Change Management: An International Journal
Knowledge Management: An International Journal
Organizational Cultures: An International Journal

Each of these journals has the subtitle: ‘A section of The International Journal of Knowledge, Culture, and Change in Organizations’.

The highlights journal consists only of reprints of articles from the thematic journals. It contains top-ranked articles and works by invited contributions, including plenary speakers from The International Conference on Knowledge, Culture and Change in Organizations. This is not a second publication of an article. As the subtitle of the highlights journal clearly indicates, this journal only consists of reprints.

Authors can request which of the thematic journals they would prefer for the publication of their article. Alternatively, when the author does not opt to make a selection, the Common Ground editorial team will curate each paper into the appropriate thematic journal.
