摘要:In a scenario-based study using Mexican and U.S. samples, when a team member was perceived to be an in-group (rather than an out-group) member, collectivists evaluated that member significantly more generously than did individualists. Further, collectivists valued maintenance contributions more than individualists did, and individualists valued task contributions more than collectivists did. Nevertheless, both collectivists and individualists appeared to value an equity norm.

摘要:Although typically excluded from strategic human resource models, bundles of work-family policies may be an HR approach related to competitive advantage. Symbolic action and resource-based views provide conceptual support for such a relationship. Results from a national sample of 527 U.S. firms suggest that organizations with more extensive work-family policies have higher perceived firm-level performance. In addition, there was partial support for the hypotheses that the relationship between ...

摘要:This article contributes to the theory of collaboration in social settings and is based on data collected during action research interventions in a number of public and community interorganizational collaborations. We conceptualize leadership in collaborations as stemming from three leadership media-structures, processes, and participants-and argue that none of these is wholly within the control of the members of a collaboration. Leadership activities that participants undertake in order to mo...

摘要:The Organisation for Economic Go-operation and Development predicts that the internationalization of businesses will accelerate in the 21st century. Our study examined how the risks of accelerated internationalization may be managed in 212 foreign market entries by 87 new ventures based in the United States. Findings suggested that ventures managed strategic international risks by exploiting simultaneous trade-offs among foreign revenue exposure, country risk, and entry made commitment in each...

摘要:We studied the reactions to an early retirement program of 668 employees of a large organization who were ineligible for the program. Specifically, we examined the influence of perceptions of the generosity of the organization's assistance to retirees (caretaking) on the remaining employees' intentions to quit. Findings contrasted with those from research on layoff survivors: perceptions of overly generous caretaking were associated with increased intentions to quit, particularly among more te...

摘要:The purpose of this study was to assess the proposed moderating role of one individual-level health risk factor-hostility-in the relationship between job enrichment and health care costs for a sample of nurses. Our findings indicate that hostility does moderate the relationship between job enrichment and health care costs; however, those who have more control in their jobs have fewer health problems, even when they demonstrate more hostility.

摘要:Taylor's pig iron observations at Bethlehem Iron in 1899 are often cited as an example of how scientific management helped increase industrial efficiency. The current research, relying almost exclusively on primary sources, reveals that Taylor's famous pig iron anecdote was erroneous. Additionally, this article offers lessons and guidelines for managers in the new millennium.

摘要:This study is a comparison of the strategies employed in management research in two periods, 1995-97 and 1985-87, Through a content analysis of articles from the Academy of Management Journal, Administrative Science Quarterly, and the Journal of Management, we examined the use of research methods for addressing issues of triangulation and validity, including internal, external, construct, and statistical conclusion validity. Results indicate some potentially important trends in reports of rese...

摘要:This study uses the resource-based view of the firm and agency theory to examine the relationship between innovation and CEO pay in 90 high-technology firms. With firm size, performance, and other factors controlled, CEO short-term compensation was related to innovation as measured by number of patents and R&D spending. The data also suggest a less consistent temporal relationship between innovation and long term CEO compensation in the high-technology firms. In a control sample of 74 low-tech...

摘要:Employing a national sample of 1,162 employees, we examined the relationship between jab and career attitudes and the presence of a mentor, the mentor's type (formal or informal), the quality of the mentoring relationship, and the perceived effectiveness and design of a formal mentoring program. Satisfaction with a mentoring relationship had a stronger impact on attitudes than the presence of a mentor, whether the relationship was formal or informal, or the design of a formal mentoring program.
