WELCOME LETTER

Dear Colleague,

The 14th International Strategic Management Conference is organized this year with the collaboration of the University of Economics Prague (Prague School of Economics), Czechia, the University of Bari, Italy, and CEDIMES, a worldwide network of Francophone academicians. CEDIMES is a network of academicians aiming to promote French in academia, and as part of our participation in the CEDIMES network, we are holding this year for the first time some sessions in French.

To convene in the “Fairy Tale City” of Prague, between the dates of July 12-14, 2018, Thursday through Saturday, the 14th International Strategic Management Conference addresses this year the theme of “Strategic Management in the Digital Era: Opportunities and Threats for Public and Private Organizations.”

As part of the conference’s standing agenda of forging workable solutions from the convening of scientific study and practical experience, this year’s conference also aims to highlight the principal impact of strategic management on the recent and future developments in the fields of economy and business. Our distinguished participants will have the opportunity to present their valuable scientific contributions and establish an international network among those who volunteer to communicate and study together in the field of strategic management.

Selected papers will have a chance to be published in several journals: the International Journal of Organizational Leadership (indexed in the Emerging Sources Citation Index by Thomson Reuters), the Journal of Global Strategic Management (an internationally refereed journal published by the International Strategic Management and Managers Association and abstracted and indexed in several indexes and databases such as Cabell's, Asos, and the Global Impact Factor), the Journal of Economics, Finance, and Accounting, the Journal of Management, Marketing, and Logistics, the Research Journal of Business and Management, and the Journal of Business, Economics, and Finance.
