摘要:Law-abiding firms often attempt to conceal their corporate political activity (CPA), yet the concealment of CPA has not been matched by our understanding of the phenomenon. We develop a theoretical framework consisting of three components to analyze firms' CPA concealment strategies. First, we provide a detailed conceptual background on CPA concealment, including what CPA concealment is and how it can occur. Second, we develop an in-depth analysis of the key benefits and costs of concealing CP...

摘要:The Academy of Management (AOM) has emerged from the pandemic strongly because we are an engaged, caring, and committed global community of 20,000 members residing in 115 countries-including 5,600 student members. I describe four broad themes considered most critical by AOM members and initiatives addressing each: (a) environmental sustainability, (b) inclusion, (c) research credibility, and (d) research usefulness and impact. Given the accomplishments I describe, we celebrate our success. But...

摘要:Stakeholders self-identify with a firm when they believe they affect and are themselves affected by the actions of a firm. When a firm is already operating and engaging in actions that are more or less consistent with its business model, stakeholders can evalu-ate whether they are affected or whether they affect the firm. However, how do stake-holders self-identify in the earliest stages of an entrepreneurial endeavor when a firm has yet to exist and the outcomes of products and services and t...

摘要:The value of human capital resources (HCR) is widely recognized, but relatively little is known about their creation. Research conceptualizes HCR emergence as enabled through shared states that form in response to environmental conditions. Although this view implies that social interactions play a role in creating HCR, theory currently fails to clar-ify how social interactions act as key facilitators of the emergence process. This limitation persists partly because the structure and content of...

摘要:Transaction cost economics (TCE) carefully analyzes market failure while remaining largely silent about hierarchical failure. We argue that this omission occurs because TCE's opportunism assumption does not consider organizational member motivations under different hierarchical forms. Thus, TCE does not fully examine opportunistic behavior under hierarchy, resulting in an incomplete governance analysis. To fill this gap, we build a discriminating alignment theory of hierarchical choice that in...

摘要:Research suggests that entrepreneurs persuade stakeholders to engage in risky projects in an uncertain future through visions, compelling narratives of the future. A unique challenge for entrepreneurs, however, is how entrepreneurs can construct a narrative that unites stakeholders with different perceptions of the degree of risk or uncertainty posed by the future. We address this question with a diegetic narrative model of stake-holder enrollment. Our primary argument is that, to reduce varia...

摘要:This article presents a theory of organizational purpose that is normatively neutral and, hence, can be deployed to study firms without prejudging their role in society. The argu-ment employs two philosophical concepts: intentionality and speech acts. The first is used to conceptualize the corporate mind, which is a set of long-lived beliefs about the world as it is and intentions about the world as it will be that drives organizational activ-ity. Corporate minds allow for complex and valuable...
