Michael Sturman, associate professor of human resources management at the School of Hotel Administration, was named editor of the Cornell Hotel and Restaurant Administration Quarterly as of July 2002. Now in its 42nd year of publication, the Cornell HRA Quarterly is the premier journal of applied research serving the hospitality industry. Sturman, who replaces Professor W. Michael Lynn as editor, earned a Ph.D. in human resource management from Cornell's School of Industrial and Labor Relations in 1997 and is a certified senior professional of human resources, as named by the Society for Human Resource Management. His current research focuses on the prediction of individual job performance over time, the influence of compensation systems, and the effects of human resource management on organizational performance. "My goal as editor of the Cornell HRA Quarterly is to assemble quality articles that help bridge the divide between research and practice," said Sturman. The Cornell HRA Quarterly is issued under the aegis of the Hotel School's Center for Hospitality Research. For more information, see: http://www.hotelschool.cornell.edu/publications/HRAQ.
