EMR at 15: Reflecting back on a journal's journey [Editorial]

Fifteen years have passed since the inaugural issue of the European Management Review; a decent time span to accord us the opportunity to reflect back and evaluate how the journal stands up to its mission and what impact it bears on the management research community.
EMR's core mission tenets throughout its evolvement have changed little. The journal aims to promote a European management perspective, address a range of current management topics and engage with the global management and business research fields. In this overview we wish to examine the articles published in the journal since its inception, in terms of:
the array of topics covered (identified through the use of keywords);
- articles’ country of origin (on the basis of authors’ affiliated institutions); and
- the journal's impact (as indicated by the citations EMR articles receive in other prominent academic journals).
To address these questions quantitative bibliometric analyses were performed, including co‐occurrence keyword analysis.
