The 2nd edition of Research.com ranking of the best scholars in the
arena of Business and Management was created using data
consolidated from a wide range of data sources including OpenAlex and
CrossRef. The bibliometric data for devising the citation-based metrics were
acquired on 21-12-2022. Position in the ranking is based on a
scholar’s D-index (Discipline H-index), which
includes exclusively publications and citation
metrics for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Business and Management research
Our best scientists ranking is a trustworthy
account of leading researchers from the area of
Business and Management, based on a thorough
analysis of 166,880 researchers identified
from various bibliometric data sources. For the area of
Business and Management, over 7820 researchers were
investigated.
What is D-index acceptance threshold for Business and Management
The D-index threshold for approving a scholar to be
evaluated is established at 30 if
most of their publications are in the area of Business and Management. The
approval criteria for scholars to be
considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the D-index, proportion
of the publications made within the selected field of study
as well as the awards and achievements of the scholars. The
D-index threshold for considering best researchers is
set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of researchers
projected for each area od study whilst
making sure that the top 1% of leading scholars are
added into the list. We expect a proximity of
30% or less between a researcher’s general H-index and their D-index.
Additional verification practices
As our main goal is to guarantee that only
genuine researchers are mentioned in
the ranking we believe that metrics are never
meant to be a full means to assess the
output of scholars. Because of that
we manually inspect every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
broad range of credible sources. Even though it’s not a
factor contributing to a researcher’s position in
Research.com ranking, the amount of documents published in
prominent journals and conference proceedings should be a
reliable secondary implication of their contribution to research in a
specific field of study. Position in the ranking is
established using each scholar’s D-index
with the help of metrics gathered from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most credible and well-known bibliometric
databases of this kind accessible to the scientific community. A
comprehensive definition of our research procedures
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our mission
Our mission is to motivate researchers,
companies and politicians
worldwide to investigate where top experts are heading
and to offer an opportunity for the whole research community to
find out who the leading experts in specific
disciplines, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
