Webinar: Successful Recruiting and Onboarding of Your Editor-in-Chief

Tuesday, 9 May 2023

Successful editor-in-chief (EIC) transitions are central to achieving your journal’s editorial development goals. But recruiting and onboarding new EICs involves a range of practical, ethical, and political factors and pitfalls to consider. Some EIC attributes, skills, and qualifications are more important than others. In addition, there is a growing recognition of the importance of fostering DEI among the candidates and those who will evaluate them. How will you identify, recruit, and hire the best candidate to represent the journal in these times of rapid changes in scholarly publishing?

In this webinar from KnowledgeWorks Global Ltd., a panel of publishing professionals who recently completed EIC searches will present case studies, each focusing on what they view as the most important aspects of a successful process.
