The Distinguished Professor Johan Wiklund was recently listed as one of the most prolific business and economic research scholars globally, according to “What We Know 鶹Ƶ the Science of Science in Business and Economics? Insights From the Top 50 Journals, 2008-2022,” published in . Wiklund was ranked No. 32 with a total of 42 papers published on a select list based on the  Top 50 (FT50) academic and practitioner journals.

“Being named to this list is always nice, and publishing in top journals is something we all endeavor,” says Wiklund. “It’s extremely difficult, and it does indicate that I’m succeeding in something that most academics strive for—publishing our research. I’m very proud to represent the Whitman School and also be recognized on a list that includes many friends and colleagues furthering interesting research in the various areas of business around the world.”

Wiklund, the AI Berg Chair, joined the Whitman School’s Department of Entrepreneurship and Emerging Enterprises in 2008. His research interests focus on entrepreneurship, neurodiversity and mental well-being. He is considered a leading authority in his field with over 100 articles published in leading journals and more than 60,000 citations to his research, as well as a number of international awards and honors. This spring, he was named a Distinguished Professor at 鶹ƵUniversity.

“This is not the first time Professor Wiklund has been recognized among the most prolific business scholars, but this time his ranking has risen, reaffirming his research productivity and its quality for the second time over a long period,” says Michel Benaroch, Whitman’s associate dean for research and Ph.D. programs. “ The Whitman School is proud to have Johan among its ranks, and I trust we will hear more about his research leadership and accomplishments in the future.”
