Introduction

Research in business and management examines organizations, markets, consumers, strategy, leadership, innovation, and related economic and social processes. Academic contributions in these fields may combine theoretical development with empirical investigation and practical relevance. Bibliographic databases and persistent identifiers provide complementary mechanisms for documenting scholarly outputs and distinguishing individual researchers. Scopus provides bibliographic and citation information, while ORCID provides persistent researcher identifiers. [1] [2]

Research Profile

The supplied profile identifies Magne Supphellen with the Norwegian School of Economics and places the research record within Business, Management and Accounting. The reported 51 documents indicate a sustained body of indexed scholarly output. The reported citation count of 1,821 and h-index of 17 provide additional bibliometric indicators of the visibility and accumulated scholarly use of the research record. [1] These measures should be interpreted as descriptive indicators rather than complete assessments of research quality.

Research Contributions

The available profile supports recognition of an established research record in the business and management domain. Bibliometric evidence can indicate scholarly reach, but the nature and significance of individual contributions require examination of the underlying publications. Such assessment may consider conceptual originality, methodological rigor, empirical evidence, theoretical relevance, practical implications, and influence on subsequent scholarship. The supplied information does not justify attributing specific discoveries or individual research findings without corresponding publication-level evidence.

Publications

The supplied Scopus record reports 51 documents associated with Magne Supphellen. [1] Individual publication titles and DOI identifiers were not included in the supplied information. Consequently, no particular publication is assigned a DOI on this page without a verified article-level record. Where available, DOI identifiers provide persistent links to scholarly publications and can be used for precise bibliographic verification. [3]

Research Impact

The reported 1,821 citations and h-index of 17 indicate measurable scholarly visibility within the supplied bibliometric record. [1] Citation-based indicators can help describe how frequently published research has been referenced, although they do not independently measure methodological quality, originality, societal value, or practical influence. A balanced evaluation therefore considers bibliometric indicators alongside publication content, peer recognition, collaboration, and demonstrated research relevance.

Award Suitability

The Innovative Research Award profile is supported by the supplied evidence of 51 scholarly documents, 1,821 citations, and an h-index of 17 within Business, Management and Accounting. [1] The documented institutional affiliation and persistent ORCID identity further support researcher identification. [2] Final award assessment should remain subject to the applicable evaluation criteria and verification of the underlying academic record.

Conclusion

Magne Supphellen is presented as a researcher affiliated with the Norwegian School of Economics whose supplied academic profile falls within Business, Management and Accounting. The reported 51 documents, 1,821 citations, and h-index of 17 provide a quantitative summary of the documented research record. [1] The ORCID identifier provides an additional persistent mechanism for researcher attribution. [2]
