The South African Journal of Business Management is an influential academic journal in the field of management, focusing on the publication of high-quality research articles that have profound implications for management theory and practice. The journal is dedicated to building Bridges between academic research and practical applications in management disciplines.

In management theory, scholars are encouraged to report on new methodological developments, which may include innovative analytical methods, theoretical frameworks, or philosophical reflections. The journal pays special attention to research that pushes the boundaries of knowledge in management disciplines, as well as work that reexamines and extends existing theories. These theoretical contributions contribute to a deeper understanding of management concepts, principles and processes. The journal focuses on the methodology of applied scientific knowledge, i.e. how management theory can be effectively translated into practical actions and strategies. Special emphasis is placed on research that can solve practical management problems, including applications in the fields of organizational behavior, strategic planning, human resource management, marketing, financial management, etc. The journal encourages authors to explore how the theory can be applied in specific contexts that take into account behavioral factors and economic realities.
