New appointment to the Editorial Advisory Board
We are pleased to announce that a new appointment has been made to the Editorial Advisory Board (EAB) of this journal. Dr Allenna Leonard has accepted our invitation to join the EAB at this important time in the journal's history when it is extending its scope to cover management science with particular reference to management cybernetics, and business and industrial concerns.
Dr Leonard is a leading figure in cybernetics and systems communities and has special interest in the fields of endeavour that we intend should be more extensively featured in Kyberntes.
She is an independent consultant facilitator and sometime adjunct professor based in Toronto, Canada. Her practice has been focussed on the work of Stafford Beer, patron in memoriam of this journal, and his Viable System Model and Team Syntegrity process. She served as President of the American Society for Cybernetics from 2002 to 2005.
A full profile of Dr Leonard and her contributions to systems and cybernetics will be published in coming issues.
We welcome Dr Leonard to the Board and look forward to her valued contribution to the journal at this time of change in our coverage of these important fields.
