Effective Editorial Board Management

About This Webinar

In our endeavor to support your work as Editors and provide opportunities for the exchange of experiences and ideas, we are holding regular Editors’ Briefings. This is a series of virtual events exploring industry trends and best practice on a range of topics of direct relevance to our journal editors and editorial office staff.

Join us for our next instalment of the Editor Briefing series, ‘Effective Editorial Board Management’, which will feature presentations from four speakers, each with experience in various aspects of editorial board management. The session aims to provide practical advice for structuring, managing, and refreshing a journal editorial board in line with society strategy, DEA&I principles, journal scope, regional diversity, and the needs of key stakeholders, such as society members or early career researchers. Additional insights may include: ensuring editor engagement in strategic journal objectives, delivering fast and efficient peer review, leading effective editorial board meetings, managing editorial board rotation, and onboarding or training of new editors.
