Long Range Planning is one of the leading international journals in the field of strategic management that is published six times
a year. It features articles which offer original research that bridge the gap between academia and practice. We aim to influence the
behaviour of senior managers, administrators and to influence academic thinking.
LRP has a large print run of several thousand
hard copies that goes to all the major academic libraries, many corporations and individual executives (including members of the Strategic
Planning Society). We also offer unrivalled accessibility via the web - last year our articles were downloaded from 
http://www.sciencedirect.com
more than 170,000 times.
We know from our feedback that practitioners find us both topical and relevant. Our typical readers are executives
with a good MBA and senior academics actively involved in practice. Our pieces are often used in high level executive courses: for example
one of the largest users of LRP is Harvard Business School.
Our goal is to be essential reading for senior managers, and those involved
in executive education. We note that the Financial Times lists us as a key journal of influence (used when ranking Business Schools).
We are regularly ranked alongside the Harvard Business Review, Sloan Management Review, California Management Review and Academy of Management
Executive and our material is often reported in the Press.
Most of our contributors are academics whose research, teaching or consulting
places them close to management practice. They engage with current issues, concerns and trends in the business world. Our authors range
from the very famous and well published strategy gurus to the up-coming young academics who will be the stars of the future. We publish
work from across the world, and non-native English speakers benefit from our non-intrusive text editing that improves accessibility of
important contributions from other cultures. We have contributions from all the Triad regions that keep readers in touch with global
developments in strategy.
