摘要:Disruptions such as COVID-19-and the subsequent flux they wreak on organizations and society-have become commonplace. In order to advance our understanding of (and adaptation to) future discontinuities and crises, we argue that we require a reconceptualization of how disruption occurs. To do so, we draw on event systems theory; in contrast to previous work viewing disruption as the outcome of a singular event, we focus on how disruption can occur from an event chain-that is, a set of events th...

摘要:Firms can use a range of proactive impression management behaviors to reduce the impact of a negative event on firm outcomes. When a negative event is unpredictable, we theorize that firms can engage in ostentatious behaviors that display the firm's affluence and robust resource base. We term these behaviors flaunting, and we present a two-part model that investigates how flaunting can reduce the impact of an unpredictable negative event on firm outcomes and why it is effective at doing so. In...

摘要:Although management scholars have conceptualized how diversity manifests in various organizational outcomes, several aspects of diversity remain undertheorized. I examine the model minority-a specific and understudied racialized other. To conceptualize the model minority's position in the contemporary workplace, I analyze the series The Chair. Juxtaposing The Chair against germane discourses on the model minority, I consider some of the salient, though not fully understood, challenges to inclu...

摘要:We address a key theoretical issue in the literature of dominant coalitions by explaining why, contrary to conventional wisdom, we observe the emergence of different coalitions under identical equity holdings of shareholders. Shifting the focus from exploring drivers of dominant coalition configurations in isolation (e.g., equity holdings), we expand on a relational perspective to explore how relational ties (soft power) among family shareholders interplay with equity holdings (hard power) in ...

摘要:The paper unpacks the black box of informal institutions and theorizes about the role of informal networks in channeling continuity and change in informal institutions. Spe-cifically, we argue that the persistence of informal institutions depends on the function-alities of the informal networks upon which they rest. When informal institutions are enacted by informal networks that are relatively affective and relatively closed, their persistence is higher than the persistence of informal instit...

摘要:Management and organization studies have long been interested in the social contexts and enduring consequences of individual and collective action. Yet, empirically observing both the situated nature of actions and their ultimate consequences remains challenging. In this paper, we describe microhistory as a complementary approach to grounded and longitudinal studies that reconciles situated action in time with its broader consequences over time. Microhistorical research involves the reflexive ...

摘要:In leading strategy theories, such as industry analysis and value capture theory, maximizing bargaining power with transaction partners is a critical driver of profitability. However, in recent years a new business model has emerged that contradicts this fundamental precept: With pay-what-you-want (PWYW) pricing, a seller allows a buyer to name any nonnegative price, even zero, for the seller's product or service, and yet, enough buyers make voluntary positive payments, and of sufficient magni...
