摘要:This paper investigates employees seeking problem-solving assistance from colleagues with whom they find it difficult to work. In so doing, the paper introduces the construct of dissonant ties: network ties to colleagues that are simultaneously positive and negative. The study builds on the assumption that individuals in knowledge-intensive workplaces employ dissonant ties to access distinct work-related benefits, and establishes a link between dissonant ties and performance. Subsequently, it ...

摘要:The increasing presence of women in upper echelon positions draws attention to the possible effects of executive gender on corporate decisions and actions. In this study, we formulate theory about the impact of chief financial officer (CFO) gender on financial misreporting to generate two key insights. First, we hypothesize that firms with female CFOs will have a lower likelihood of financial misreporting than comparable firms with male CFOs. Second, we argue that the relation between CFO gend...

摘要:Scholars have found consistent evidence that directors who served on boards of firms accused of misconduct face reputational penalties in the director labor market. While commonly interpreted in terms of an ex post settling-up process that penalizes directors for failing in their role as monitors of management, the fundamentally social basis of the director labor market suggests that the ex post settling-up process may also incorporate a resource-provisioning role for directors as conferrers o...

摘要:Building on the literature on optimal distinctiveness, this study explores the effects of conformity versus differentiation in corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices on evaluations by security analysts and responses of the financial market in general. We develop the argument that while conformity in CSR scope enhances analyst coverage, differentiation in CSR emphasis leads to more-favorable analyst recommendations and higher market value. This suggests that firms may be able to simult...

摘要:We draw upon relational demography and social identity perspectives to argue that working with teammates who are dissimilar in pay grade can help individual team members reduce social uncertainty in their work relationships within the team, subsequently influencing their identification with the team, performance, and turnover intention. This effect is more pronounced for team members in a lower pay grade because they are more sensitive to social influence owing to their lower status in the tea...

摘要:The contemporary risk society is associated with the emergence of a wide range of risks characterized by uncertainty and unfamiliarity. These novel risks pose a major challenge for organizations: their negative effects may be significant, but prevailing risk-assessment techniques are limited in their ability to identify these effects. Building on our prior work on the chemical bisphenol A (BPA), this study examines how organizations deal with novel risks. It finds that organizations engage in ...

摘要:Collaborating across cultures can potentially increase creativity owing to access to diverse ideas and perspectives, but this benefit is not always realized. One reason for this is that the conflict that arises in intercultural creative collaboration is a double-edged sword, and so how it is managed matters. In this research, we examine how the gender of collaborating dyads influences the link between intercultural conflict (task and relationship) and creative collaboration effectiveness. Thro...

摘要:When is a token female's voice incorporated into the actions of a traditionally male-dominated team, and to what ends? Drawing from the tokenism, gender stereotypes, and minority influence literatures, we advance a model that specifies the conditions that facilitate token female voice enactment and when enacting the female's voice enhances team performance. Using a sample of active-duty military men and women, we employed live observation techniques to study voice enactment in all-male teams v...

摘要:This study offers a new theoretical and empirical perspective on the dynamic effect of demographic dissimilarity on absenteeism behavior by team members over time. Integrating social identity theory with the theory of anchoring events (i.e., key social interactions), we propose that individual absenteeism behavior depends on the relational dissimilarity to the team age and gender. Using a sample of 2,711 individual newcomers in 820 blue-collar teams tracked over seven years, we show that gende...

摘要:Social comparison processes were integral to the origins of the organizational justice literature, and are incorporated within several justice-based constructs and theories. Yet, despite this, the justice social comparison literature is theoretically underdeveloped; while the extant literature affirms that justice social comparisons influence employee outcomes, it does not explain why, when, or for whom these effects occur. We build new theory on why justice social comparison perceptions influ...
