Abstract

Standards for the evaluation of management scholars lead more and more to exclude forms of scientific production other than the articles published in international scientific journals. The aim of this paper is to test the validity of these norms by analyzing the production of all university professors in management science, based on the «influen- tial» publications in Google Scholar. The articles published in internation- al journals represent only 35 % of in- fluential publications and collect only 40.2 % of citations. Books still repre- sent a very important part and the in- fluence of the different media varies widely across sub-disciplinary fields (finance, marketing, etc.). This article also highlights that only 76 publica- tions obtain at least 100 citations and that the standing of the journal has only weak explanatory power in pre- dicting the number of citations obtained.
