There is increasing tension between editorial and publishing teams, caused by the transition from subscription to open access business models. Publishers need to increase article volumes to maintain financial sustainability; editors often prefer to maintain selectivity and are concerned about creating financial barriers that prevent some authors from publishing in their journals. This session will explore these tensions with regards to monitoring, evaluating and incentivising editorial performance. How should article volumes be decided? What parameters should editorial teams work within? How should publishers evaluate Editors-in-Chief (EiCs) and how should EiCs monitor and incentivise their teams? How should editors be compensated?
