Investing in yourself by investing in the field: The long-term benefits of reviewing

Jeffery S. McMullen and Scott L. Newbert

Journal of Business Venturing, 2023, vol. 38, issue 2

Abstract: This editorial highlights the importance of a robust reviewer pool to the development of the field. We emphasize the role that authors play in ensuring the sustainability of that commons and consider both the field-level and individual-level consequences of failing to do so. In addition, we make a case for the long-term benefits of reviewing, while exploring strategic and tactical concerns such as where you should be reviewing, how much you should be reviewing, whether and when to review, who should review, and, finally, how to develop a reputation as a good reviewer.
