This collection of articles published in International Journal of Operations & Production Management has been curated by the Editorial Team to showcase the journal's Impact Pathways (IPS) initiative, which aims to attract a new type of article that stands apart from our conventional submissions.
Impact Pathway articles are short 4,000-word limit articles that clearly explain a contemporary issue, problem or challenge directly relevant to our domain that is being faced by business leaders and/or policymakers and which we need to bring to the attention of our readership. We want author(s) telling the IJOPM community new things, about what they are finding out now through their research with industry and organizations rather than telling us something about what has happened in the past.
