Call for Papers | Administrative Sciences | Special Issue

As part of the Challenges of Decision-Making in the Digital Age (CoDiDA) project activities, Professor Marli Gonan Božac, PhD, and Assistant Professor Katarina Kostelić, PhD, are guest editing a Special Issue of the international peer-reviewed journal Administrative Sciences entitled Thriving Through People: Human-Centered Strategies for Organizational Sustainability in the Digital Age.

Thriving Through People: Human-Centered Strategies for Organizational Sustainability in the Digital Age

The Special Issue welcomes research that approaches digital transformation as a comprehensive process of organisational change rather than merely a technological upgrade. It focuses on the human, organisational, and governance dimensions of digital transformation, including the role of generative artificial intelligence, digital maturity, responsible governance, transparency, inclusion, and sustainability in organisations and public administration.

The Special Issue is closely aligned with the objectives of the CoDiDA project, which examines decision-making in the context of digital transformation, with particular emphasis on ethics, effectiveness, human judgment, digital competences, emotional and cognitive factors, and sustainable and inclusive organisational development. It provides a platform for interdisciplinary contributions connecting management, leadership, business processes, human resources, psychology, informatics, artificial intelligence, public administration, and the broader social sciences.

Researchers are invited to submit papers addressing topics such as digital maturity, inclusion, responsible AI governance, GenAI-supported decision-making, trust and bias in AI systems, emotions, stress and employee well-being during digital transformation, as well as changes in leadership, competences, business processes, and decision-support systems.

The deadline for manuscript submission is 10 October 2026. Further information is available on the Administrative Sciences Special Issue webpage.
