Journal of Business and Management Track (JBMT) is a peer-reviewed, open-access international journal dedicated to publishing pioneering research that tracks, evaluates, and shapes modern business practices, managerial strategies, organizational behavior, and commercial innovations. Conceptually designed to provide a comprehensive research trajectory ("Track") across diverse business disciplines, the journal serves as a premier scholarly forum for management researchers, strategic leaders, business analytics specialists, marketing theorists, organizational psychologists, and corporate policy advisors worldwide. JBMT prioritizes rigorous empirical research, quantitative business analytics, qualitative case studies, executive leadership evaluations, and organizational performance models that examine how commercial enterprises adapt to global competition, digital disruptions, and shifting market dynamics. By bridging foundational management theories with real-world execution, the journal fosters a deep, comprehensive understanding of how strategic alignment and organizational agility sustain long-term commercial value.

Publication Frequency
To ensure rigorous editorial oversight, thorough peer review, and the timely dissemination of business and management research, JBMT is published semi-annually (2 issues per year, typically scheduled for release in June and December). Special thematic issues focusing on digital business transformations, agile strategic management, or global supply chain resilience may be commissioned by the Editorial Board.

Peer Review Process
JBMT enforces a strict double-blind peer review policy to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity, analytical objectivity, and methodological validity across management and business disciplines.

  • Initial Desk Evaluation: Every submission undergoes a preliminary screening by the Editor-in-Chief or a relevant Subject Editor to assess thematic alignment, methodological soundness (quantitative survey rigor, qualitative case study depth, mixed-methods design, or econometric modeling), and structural compliance. Plagiarism screening via Turnitin/iThenticate is strictly executed at this stage, requiring a similarity index below the journal's maximum threshold.
  • Expert Peer Review: Manuscripts passing the desk evaluation are anonymized and assigned to at least two independent international reviewers who are established academic experts or senior managerial researchers in the relevant domain.
  • Editorial Decision: Based on the reviewers' recommendations, the Editorial Board renders one of four decisions: Acceptance, Revisions Required (Minor/Major), Resubmit for Review, or Rejection. The final decision rests entirely on intellectual merit, theoretical rigor, empirical accuracy, and practical managerial impact.

Mission Statement: "The mission of the Journal of Business and Management Track (JBMT) is to map and advance the state of modern business management, delivering actionable, evidence-based research that empowers organizations to navigate complex global markets. Grounded in the philosophy that sustained corporate success requires continuous strategic tracking and evidence-based decision-making, the journal aims to democratize advanced management research by providing an unrestricted platform for global scholarly, executive, and organizational dialogue.
