摘要：Existing scholarship on categories has frequently highlighted how some category members violate codes that others diligently abide by. In this paper, we consider differences in identity across category members, and ask how these relative differences determine their response to a code-violating change. Taking a case where category members are identified as insiders and outsiders, we argue that insiders' reaction to a code violation depends upon the extent to which they believe their identity is...

摘要：Drawing on real-time video, an audio journal, interviews, and field notes from the first-ever attempt to scull the navigable Amazon, we explore the promise of carnal sociology to enrich our understanding of embodied organizational sensemaking. We investigate the body's role in sensemaking from two vantage points: of the body and from the body. Using methodological and conceptual anchors provided in carnal sociology, we contrast what each approach tells us about the nature and process of sensem...

摘要：Prior studies on corporate political strategies have taken an exchange view to examine these strategies' benefits and costs for firms and politicians, but have paid less attention to how politicians' political values shape their perceptions of, and willingness to engage in, these exchanges. We investigate how politicians' imprinted political ideologies affect the likelihood of firms' political appointments. Examining 760 city mayors across 242 Chinese cities from 2001 to 2013, we find that cit...

摘要：Combining the theses of problemistic search and slack search, past research in the behavioral theory of the firm suggests that both low- and high-performing firms may engage in the same type of risk-taking activity. We counter this view with a consistent, motivation-based logic in the theory: low-performing firms are fixated on finding short-term solutions to immediate problems, so they have an increased probability of exhibiting deviant risk-taking behavior such as bribery, whereas high-perfo...

摘要：Institutional theorists have long recognized that board interlocks serve as conduits of information, which can facilitate mimetic isomorphism under conditions of uncertainty. In contrast, the potential for coercive isomorphism-which is a response to direct coercion rather than uncertainty-to spread through board interlocks remains unknown. Drawing on the forced compliance literature from social psychology, we propose that coercive isomorphism exhibits a ripple effect, whereby conforming to coe...

摘要：Drawing on the array of literature on exploitation from several social science disciplines, we propose a new way of seeing employer-employee relationships by introducing the concept of perceived exploitative employee-organization relationships, distinguish it from related concepts, and conduct five studies to develop a scale and test our theoretical model of the effects of such employee perceptions. Contributing to the employee-organization relationships and workplace emotions literatures, per...

摘要：We study the emotive aspect of institutional work performed by U.S. animal rights organizations (AROs) attempting to disrupt industrial practices in modern factory farming operations perceived to be abusive to animals. Drawing on an inductive, qualitative analysis of interviews with ARO advocates, as well as textual and visual archival data collected from AROs' websites, we argue that the suppression of emotion plays a critical role in AROs' disruptive work. We find that advocates are motivate...

摘要：A key challenge for entrepreneurs is to convince investors of their business ideas via a pitch. While scholars have started to explore how entrepreneurs convey their passion and preparedness in a pitch, they have overlooked the possible variation that exists in entrepreneurs' verbal and nonverbal expressions. We build on research in cognitive science and entrepreneurship to examine the nature and influence of specific forms of speech and gesturing used by entrepreneurs when pitching. In an ini...

摘要：How organizations respond to failure (negative feedback) has important implications for subsequent organizational performance. This study focuses on theoretical and empirical distinctions between the different potential organizational reactions to failure (in this case around new product development) and how those feedback-driven choices aggregate to affect firm performance. To understand when and why negative feedback is organizationally beneficial, we focus on how possession of domain-specif...

摘要：Focusing on the post-bankruptcy reactions of former Lehman Brothers' bankers, we build a model of organizational mourning that depicts the thoughts, feelings, and actions of individual members dealing with the loss of their organization. We argue that organizational mourning is a process comprised of five interrelated phases, namely: (1) experiencing the death event, (2) remembering the organization, (3) assessing loss, (4) salvaging: evaluate and restore, and (5) creating continuity and deta...
