摘要：Rivalry is endemic in society and organizations, fueling competitive intentions and behaviors. According to social network theory, rivalry emerges among people who, like siblings, have many of the same connections to others. For this structurally equivalent rivalry to have its effects, the individual must see the other person as a rival. We ask whether, in the context of competition, people seek to identify the knowledge providers of their rivals while striving to hide their own knowledge prov...

摘要：Screening theory explains how decision-makers search for and use external cues to overcome information asymmetry problems under conditions of uncertainty. We introduce screen credibility, screen necessity, and screen salience to the screener as boundary conditions that determine screen efficacy. We test our ideas in the context of corporate venture capital (CVC) funding aimed at industries where firms do not yet compete. These decisions are fraught with uncertainty, so we suggest that CVC deci...

摘要：While scholars have explored how focal firms harness demand-side value through ecosystem development, less emphasis has been placed on understanding how peripheral complementors become competitive. Unlike focal firms, complementors can seldom set value extraction rules. How can complementors lacking critical supply-side resources establish themselves as ecosystem leaders? We conducted a longitudinal analysis of Xiaomi, which began life as a smartphone software complementor within the Android e...

摘要：Management literature on how interorganizational relationships influence firm performance has emphasized the importance of connections, positions, and cliques. We advance this literature by examining how network communities (membership in cohesive network structures) shape the performance of venture capital (VC) firms. We propose that community insiders affiliated with at least one network community will outperform outsiders. We also explicate the conditions under which the advantages of netwo...

摘要：Building on an inductive, qualitative study of employees who experienced griefinducing events such as bereavement or breakup, this paper explores how and with what consequences work becomes a refuge from grief-inducing experiences in people's lives. Using the results of 68 in-depth interviews, I develop an inductive model that shows that grieving employees not only find refuge in work but can also turn their work into a refuge for themselves. In particular, the model explicates how people turn...

摘要：Due to structural sexism, women frequently encounter barriers that result in lower rankings on performance indicators such as productivity data and appraisals by others. The fairness literature offers unclear predictions about the extent to which observers would judge allocations that fail (vs. attempt) to account for such structural barriers as fair. We suggest that past conceptual discussions and empirical designs did not factor in the causal ambiguity embedded in information about structura...

摘要：Using a grounded theory study of two prominent performing arts organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic, we develop theory about how organizations respond to adversity over time. Building on research on resilience, resourcefulness, and crisis management, we induce a process model that unpacks the mechanisms and dynamics that enable organizations to act resiliently. We find that organizations approach adversity using two types of resourcefulness. Promotive resourcefulness focuses on opportuni...

摘要：One of the greatest challenges of multi-stakeholder partnerships lies in forging a shared understanding and obtaining and sustaining commitment among parties representing different interests and goals. While studies have emphasized the importance of developing shared frames for enabling collaboration and collective action through frame alignment, scant attention has been paid to how stakeholder representatives can attain commitment from their constituents back home to frames negotiated on thei...

摘要：Drawing on a global, longitudinal case study of the vinyl record manufacturing practicefollowing a global decline in sales, we examine the work undertaken to preserve it overtime. Our process model of practice preservation highlights that a declining practicemay persist across generations if it is made more accessible and resilient by reducing itsdependence on specific types of meanings, materials, and competences that risk beinglost. Our analysis suggests that these outcomes depend on the wor...

摘要：We propose that the informational environment in which firm-stakeholder interactions are embedded shapes the effect of firm-stakeholder dialogue on a stakeholder's evaluation of a firm. How much stakeholders know about a firm (information availability), what stakeholders know about a firm (information content), and how much they trust the media that informs them (information reliability) vary across countries, firms, and time. We theorize and assess how these three dimensions of the informatio...
