摘要：The literature on evolution of organizational forms has remained largely silent on where the first organizational instance of a new form comes from, treating it as either a given or an outcome of random variation. We challenge this agnostic assumption by putting the first organizational founding into a specific spatiotemporal context and revealing the role of provisional spaces , defined as small-scale, easily accessible settings where market pioneers temporarily experiment with applications o...

摘要：The dominant perspective used to understand racial bias in leader selection decisions is leader categorization theory (LCT). Received wisdom is twofold: evaluators prefer White leaders because they possess prototypical leader traits; however, during periods of decline, evaluators prefer racial minority leaders because their stereotypical traits (e.g., warmth) position them to galvanize followers. We argue that whereas LCT is useful for explaining racial bias in nonsuccession contexts, it is in...

摘要：Economic crises have profound effects on societies, motivating many individuals to launch their own firms in order to make a living. Although these firms created out of necessity possess few resources besides their founder's human capital, the role that this critical endowment plays in establishing a successful firm during a crisis is unclear, as existing knowledge offers diverging predictions about the value of general and specific human capital. We argue that this debate remains unresolved b...

摘要：Hybrid organizations must sustainably attend to multiple goals embedded in different institutional spheres. Past research has highlighted the value for hybrids in recruiting board members representing different logics to avoid attentional drifts; yet, diverse boards have also been prone to conflicts that occasion attentional lapses, thereby jeopardizing these organizations ' pursuit of multiple goals. We draw on a longitudinal comparative case study of five work integration social enterprises ...

摘要：Applying a grounded theory approach, we investigate how professionals cope with making errors that unintentionally harm others. We purposively sampled medical clinicians to study this phenomenon, as these professionals understand themselves as enablers of patient health. When unintentionally harming others, clinicians experienced initial feelings of guilt. Triggered by the error experience, these professionals engaged in a cognitive sensemaking process, aiming to determine the root causes of t...

摘要：Although public-private collaboration abounds in addressing societal grand challenges, little is known about its performance relative to private-sector collaboration. Drawing from the innovation collaboration literature, and qualitative insights from interviews and contracts, we argue that collaboration risk impairs task performance of public- private versus private-private collaboration. We attribute this to two collaboration risk mechanisms: cooperation problems arising from misaligned socia...

摘要：Digital representations are ubiquitous in the workplace. Screen displays, forecasts, simulations, indicators, multidimensional models, figures, and images are increasingly central to work of all kinds. Representations are simultaneously transparent and opaque. They contain and reveal information about the organization. Yet, they conceal the computational work used to convert data about the physical world into abstract depictions. Computational opacity is consequential when representations beco...

摘要：To hedge unforeseen risk, investors may prioritize male-led ventures that they anticipate most other investors will prefer, arriving at decisions that are biased against women. Yet, little is known about how investors infer such gendered preferences and when they are particularly likely to do so. Integrating insights from third-party bias research with social role theory, we posit that when women propose novel ventures, investors are more apt to make unpromising social approval forecasting-an ...

摘要：Scandals are momentous events with far-reaching consequences for organizations and society, but we still know relatively little about the contextual conditions that enable them. In this paper, we develop and test a theory of the publicization of organizational misconduct-that is, of how an act of wrongdoing by an organization becomes widely publicized, thereby giving rise to a scandal; or receives little coverage, with little or no consequence for the offending organization. We argue that comm...
