Editorial
Introduction
Start
my speech for this first edition of 2018, apologizing for not responding to
colleagues, for taking the time to release this edition. I explain that during
the year 2017, I was sick and although I was practicing sports, I was not able
to resume my activities completely. I have always worked alone in the Journal,
but today I see that this is increasingly difficult.
There
is also the financial difficulty to keep this project running. I am currently
looking for partners who are willing to support financially, because only then
will I be able to set up a work team and be able to see this journal grow even
more.
This
issue of the Independent Journal of Management & production (IJM&P)
features a selection of articles submitted and revised until December 2017.
Observe the works are the fruit of research and publications of undergraduate,
postgraduate and entrepreneurs.
With
the launch of this edition, we are also publishing the new logo of the journal,
during the year 2017, a study and research was carried out on how our logo
should be, and in this way a new logo appears that will represent all our
efforts and dedication.
It is important to mention that all the works are showed
without any kind of payment. All of them are published free from payments or
taxes.
The
publication also counts on the work of researchers from various parts of the
world, which have undergone a process of peer review.
As
chief editor of IJM&P, I am indebted to all members of the editorial board
and reviewers, which contributed to achieve a very decent job during the
evaluation and revision.
Moreover,
that they have contributed to the Journal in recognition of the international
scientific community.
In
addition, with all the authors, who trusted the results of their research and
publications to the scrutiny of editors and reviewers who are part of our
Journal.
In
February 2018, the index of periodicals indexed by CAPES was published, a
Brazilian organ that measures the quality of the periodicals. And our journal
has obtained the classification B2 in three areas of interest, which represents
the recognition of the international scientific community regarding our work.
The
first table presents how our collaborators, by their categories of study and
sex are.
