FROM THE EDITORS-What Makes World Leading Research in HRM?HRMJ has made an impressive journey over the past decades. At the same time, a journal is only as good as the work published in it. Although a good study may take many forms, there are certain fundamentals that are non-negotiable.We would hope this editorial provides further insights on the latter and would encourage scholars to submit their best work to HRMJ.

However, within these broad parameters, welcome insights from all fields of business and management studies and their foundations disciplines of economics, sociology and psychology, that place the management of people at the core of firm centred analyses, both with a view to understanding the modern organisation better, and changes in national and global economy and society.
