Hi Conflict Management Division:
We are very grateful for the leadership of our current Negotiation and Conflict Management Research (NCMR) editor, Michael Gross, who has served for the past three years. We learned this past summer that NCMR's 2017 impact factor is 01.086, the best score thus far for our journal. NCMR continues to attract more and higher quality articles, and it is well-positioned for new leadership as Michael's term as Editor-in-Chief comes to a close August 2019.
We are now soliciting nominations for the next editor of NCMR. The appointment is for three years; the transition will begin in early 2019 and will be completed by September 2019, when the new editor officially takes over. The new editor will be responsible for Volumes 13-15, a total of 12 issues; the first issue the new editor will oversee is January 2020.
Self-nominations are welcome. Also, please feel free to nominate colleagues and share the call in your professional networks. This role is a great way to become more involved in IACM leadership and stay abreast of the latest conflict management scholarship.
The IACM Call for Nominations for NCMR Editor is online: https://iafcm.org/index.php/ncmr-editor-call-for-nominations/
More information about editorial responsibilities is available upon request.
NCMR continues to grow in its success and reputation. We are excited about moving the journal into this next stage.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Deborah Cai, Michael Gross, and Roy Lewicki
