Abstract: Rankings of strategy journals are important for authors, 
readers, and promotion and tenure committees. We present several rankings, 
based either on the number of articles that cited the journal or the per 
article impact. Our analyses cover various periods between 1991 and 2006, 
for most of which the Strategic Management Journal was in first place and 
Journal of Economics & Management Strategy (JEMS) second, although JEMS 
ranked first in certain instances. Long Range Planning and Technology 
Analysis & Strategic Management also achieve a top position. Strategic 
Organization makes an impressive entry and achieves a top position in 2003-
2006.
