摘要:Despite the longstanding recognition of the importance of uncertainty in strategy, strategy researchers have given limited attention to the distinct challenges and processes involved in strategy making under uncertainty. To address this gap, we build on Knight's and Shackle's seminal ideas about how strategists address the incomplete knowledge problems that uncertainty poses. We argue that strategists adopt two distinct strategic postures when crafting strategies in uncertain markets-shaping a...

摘要:Top management teams (TMTs) and boards of directors (boards) face increasingly turbulent environments as they strategically lead firms toward superior firm performance. The dominant theoretical lens about these two groups is agency theory, which focuses on the need for independence. We suggest that the environment in which the TMT and board govern is broader than conceptualized by agency theory, and thus theories regarding strategic leadership also require expansion. Drawing from the multiteam...

摘要:Once upon a time, there was a group of management scholars. They spent their time in an ivory tower, thinking great thoughts. Sometimes, when the scholars had an especially exciting thought, they would try to share it with end users. The scholars would rush to the tower's windows and toss paper airplanes out into the air. But, alas, their thoughts were not relevant to the end users. The scholars' paper airplanes crashed to the ground, and so the scholars' work had very little impact.

摘要:The burgeoning literature on LMX differentiation has demonstrated positive and negative cross-level outcomes depending on specific boundary conditions. Although this research has provided key insights into the LMX phenomenon at multiple levels of analysis, we currently lack a conceptual understanding of when and why LMX differentiation may have positive or negative consequences at work. Opening the black box between LMX differentiation and work behaviors, we draw on social comparison theory to...

摘要:Jealousy has long been a topic of study in the relational psychology literature while remaining underexplored in the field of management, despite its potential for wide-spread consequences within the workplace. Relying on regulatory focus theory, we develop a tripartite model of jealousy based on the relationships between and characteristics of three parties: the actor, the target, and the rival. This article makes three contributions to the management literature. First, it explores how jealou...

摘要:In a growing body of literature on categorization in organization theory, researchers are exploring the stabilizing role of categories and the processes by which they emerge. Because the literature focuses mainly on categories that emerge successfully or are already established, we know much less about why categories fall out of use or fail to emerge. Rather than viewing declining usage or failed emergence as different processes, we argue that they are two aspects of the single problem of unde...

摘要:How do employees respond to organizational identity threats? Despite its theoretical and practical importance, this question has had surprisingly little research devoted to it. In particular, evidence remains unclear as to whether organizational identity threats lead employees to disidentify with their organization (to protect their individual identities by distancing themselves from the organization) or, in contrast, whether they foster organizational identification and cohesion (to protect t...
