摘要：Creation theory suggests that opportunity formation is endogenous to the actions of entrepreneurs. However, this characterization of the opportunity formation process suggests at least two important questions that have yet to be fully addressed in the literature-one pertaining to early on in the opportunity formation process, and one to later in this process. The present paper proposes to address these two questions-in particular, through the integration of the theories of cognition with the c...

摘要：This article reflects on our article of 2009, Organizational path dependence: Opening the black box, which received the Academy of Management Review's Decade Award in 2019. We review how the article has been used in subsequent research, discuss the criticism it has elicited, and reexamine our original propositions in light of theoretical insights gained since the text's publication. We also explore the linkages to related concepts, such as complexity, hierarchy, agency, and expansion. We concl...

摘要：The 9/11 terrorist attacks manifested change in the world around us and caused many people to reevaluate their work and lives. Nearly two decades later, with the benefit of hindsight, we can see the effects of changing political power on the American Dream-and, in turn, on the perceived purpose of business organizations and individuals' experience of the meaning of work. To study these phenomena through a diversity of perspectives, we examine four post-9/11 stories in which business is a centr...

摘要：The vast domain of research in business schools may be categorized according to Stokes's four quadrant classification, which uses two dimensions: consideration of use (yes or no) and quest for fundamental understanding (yes or no). Viewing business school research in the context of these quadrants, it becomes clear that all four quadrants are so closely linked that research in each informs and inspires research in the others. It is therefore critical that business schools promote research in a...

摘要：Across all fields of management research, uncertainty is largely considered an aversive state that people and organizations cope with unwillingly and generally aim to avoid. However, theories based on principles of uncertainty reduction overlook opportunities arising from uncertainty creation. Building on recent research in management, cognition, and neuroscience, we expand current conceptualizations of uncertainty by introducing a model of uncertainty regulation where individuals employ openi...

摘要：The role of complementary assets across the different stages of a firm's value chain in facilitating value creation and value appropriation from technological innovation remains a key area of interest in strategy and entrepreneurship research. However, current thinking on complementary assets operates with an unstated boundary condition-that relevant assets and asset configurations are relatively well known to the innovating firm. This assumption is applicable under conditions of risk, wherein...

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...
