About
About the Review
I.Our Mission
The Emerson Review exists to tell the true stories of the people who build (founders, executives, coaches and speakers) with the care, craft and integrity of a great literary review, so that their experience can inform, inspire and outlast them.
II.The Name
“Emerson” is a family name and a nod to Ralph Waldo Emerson, the 19th-century American essayist. The publication draws on the literary-review and essay tradition of his era.
III.The Emerson Tradition
The great reviews of the nineteenth century were not trade papers. They published long, considered essays that took their subjects seriously and trusted their readers to stay. We aim to do the same for the people who build today: fewer pieces, written with more care, and made to be read twice.
IV.Publisher
Published by Human Touch Publishing, Nashville, Tennessee.
How Selection Works
Every feature in The Emerson Review is chosen by the editors through editorial selection. The feature is always free: there is no pay-to-play, there are no sponsored features, and there are no fees of any kind.
Founders and leaders are chosen for the story they have lived and the substance of their work, not for their promotion or publicity. Nominations are welcome, and every one is read, but not every nominee is featured.
