The journal was established in 1990 by JAI Press. It is currently published by Elsevier, which acquired JAI Press in 1998.[1][2] Under the editorship of John Antonakis the journal made a major strategic turn in 2017 toward Open science and robust causal designs having policy implications. The current editor-in-chief, George C. Banks (University of N. Carolina, Charlotte), is further pushing in this direction. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2023 impact factor of 9.1. According to various journal quality lists, The Leadership Quarterly is highly ranked.[3] Its acceptance rate is historically below 10%,[4] and in the latest editorial it was reported to be 7% [5]
