摘要:Networks change when either the ties or the nodes are modified. Research on interfirm networks has conceptualized network change as being driven almost exclusively by modifications in ties (additions and deletions). Yet firms frequently engage in actions that modify the ownership and existence of nodes: acquisitions collapse nodes, divestitures split nodes, industry entries create nodes, and industry exits remove nodes. The literatures on corporate strategy and organizational networks have mos...

摘要:Research on organizational paradox has been burgeoning in recent decades. While consensus is growing on the definition of organizational paradox as persistent contradictions between interdependent elements, its ontology continues to be contested. The inherent and constitutive views of organizational paradox adopt competing ontological positions on organizational paradox as existing irrespective of, or only through, organizational members' discursive construction. In this paper, we develop a no...

摘要:The notion that transparency forces organizations to eschew decoupling and embrace substantive adoption represents an important assumption in the corporate social responsibility (CSR) literature. Conversely, research on learning and social control has considered opacity-understood as a lack of transparency-to be conducive to substantive CSR adoption. These opposing viewpoints highlight a fundamental tension: Is transparency good or bad for substantive adoption? This paper resolves this tension...

摘要:The goal of strategy is not only to address a given environment, but also to change it to a firm's advantage. In this article, we maintain that design science provides a useful theoretical foundation for understanding the development of novel strategies by shifting strategists' perspective from what is to what could be, from the past and present to the future, and from choosing among existing alternatives to discovering new problems and solutions. We propose a structured process based on desig...

摘要:Management scholars have typically regarded the widespread instances of hypocrisy across business, religious, and political institutions to be motivated and strategic. We suggest, however, that hypocrisy may stem not only from people's motivation to interpret and utilize information in a self-serving manner but also from fundamental differences in people's access to that information itself. More specifically, we present a multi-stage theory of ethical accounting (TEA) that describes how this d...

摘要:In this paper we share the behind-the-scenes story of the development of our paper When worlds collide: The internal dynamics of organizational responses to conflicting institutional demands, which received the 2020 Academy of Management Review Decade Award. Furthermore, 10 years into its publication, we assess the degree towhich the phenomenon of conflicting institutional demands is still prevalent today. We further push our theorizing, extending our initial model of the determinants of organ...

摘要:Negative social evaluations and the strategies a firm employs to manage them have garnered significant attention among management scholars. However, past research has given less attention to the social media era's revolutionary effects on these dynamics. In the present paper, we theorize that the social media era's greater velocity, emotionality, and communality increase the likelihood that social disapproval will spread faster and more empathetically among a more heterogeneous set of constitu...

摘要:When newcomers enter teams, they seek out identity resources from team incumbents to help their socialization. In turn, team incumbents offer identity resources to newcomers to support incumbents' existing held team identities. Based on theories of identity and socialization, we make a case for the identity partnership, a relationship in which identity resources are exchanged between an incumbent team member and a team newcomer. We first explore the identity needs of both team newcomers and te...

摘要:The paper outlines a novel perspective for theory building by showing how methods of conceptual engineering enable systematic development of conceptual competences. Conceptual engineering is a hot topic in philosophy, with many interesting achievements and applications. Using it in organization and management theory may shed new light on the most typical conceptual strategies in theory building, so-called conceptualizations and reconceptualizations, and help systematically improve them. Focusi...
