Message From The Editor In Chief
Knowledge dissemination is one of the mere responsibilities of the researchers. At the current pace, various online and paper-based journals devoted to management studies are being published worldwide, and the academics of the Faculty of Management Studies of the Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka largely contribute to such scientific publications. Therefore, in recognition of the research articles published in such leading scientometric databases and to bring them all together, the Research and Publication Unit of the Faculty of Management Studies decided to launch its first Research Bulletin.
The research bulletin consists of the articles published from 1st January to 31st December 2022. It summarizes the overall key findings and provides the link to the particular journal /publication for the convenient reference of the readers. This research bulletin will be bi-annually published via the online platform and will act as an open space for the readers to track and evaluate emerging research topics in the field of management. It will provide a platform not only for eminent scientists but also for young academics just beginning their research careers to take part in the creation of the world's knowledge system.
I would like to express special appreciation for the commitment of the editorial board and authors for submitting their research details for the first issue of the FMS Research Bulletin. I am certain that the grow up potential of this space as well as the extreme capabilities of the academics, would make this a well successful in the future by bringing their insightful concepts to the forefront of the world.
