Editor's Notes

- #9 Narrow down the number of results by limiting your search. We limited this search by type of material, “Scholarly Journals” and date of publication “2010 – 2014.” I’m going to look at the title, Project management in small to medium sized enterprises published in the journal, Management Decision.
