Editorial

摘要

I cannot remember exactly when it was that Jackie Ford and I took over the editorship of Journal of Management in Medicine from David Hunter, but it was at least 12 years ago. At that time, the journal was struggling to attract sufficient good papers, despite the very hard work that Professor Hunter had put into it. One of the first tasks that Jackie and I then did was persuade the publishers to change the title of the journal to Journal of Health Organization and Management, and the change of title broadened the journal's scope and proved the launch pad for developing JHOM into a widely read, truly international journal that attracts papers and readers from all over the world.
