    Strategy & Leadership Selects New Editor
    *********************************

    Strategy and Leadership a strategic management journal for corporate leaders
    and scholars published by Emerald (Emerald is a trading name of MCB
    University Press Ltd), has selected Robert M. Randall to be its new editor.
    Mr. Randall takes charge from the January issue of Volume 30 of the
    publication, for which he is now acquiring manuscripts.

    The editorship is a homecoming of sorts for Mr. Randall, who served until
    1995 as managing editor of Strategy & Leadership when it was published by
    The Strategic Leadership Forum, an organization for management professionals
    that dissolved in 1998. MCB University Press Ltd purchased the journal
    later in December 1999. Mr. Randall replaces Marilyn Norris, a former
    executive of J.C. Penny who took over the editorship in 1995 and is now
    retiring.

    "Ever since the publication was founded in the 1970s as Planning Review it
    has been known as the idea exchange for the whole strategic management
    community, said Mr. Randall. "I plan to continue its tradition of offering
    an exciting opportunity to learn and a great place to publish for corporate
    and not-for-profit practitioners, academics, and consultants."

    "Submissions will be peer reviewed by senior practitioners and leading
    academics working together to select articles by practitioners and academics
    that are innovative, practical, and well researched. Each issue will also
    contain a mix of
    how-to articles, case studies, senior management interviews, research
    summaries, conference reports, book reviews, and letters to the editors."

    Mr. Randall has extensive experience editing business publications and
    writing books, white papers, and articles about corporate strategy and
    management tools. His two latest books are The Portable MBA in Strategy,
    Second Edition, (New York: John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2001) and Learning from
    the Future: Competitive Foresight Scenarios (Wiley: 1998), both
    collaborations with Professor Liam Fahey, a competitive strategy expert.
