摘要:It is surprising that, to date, a discussion of exiting fieldwork is absent from the management and organization literature an absence we believe is unjustified. We argue that analyzing exit from fieldwork is important for theorizing. We combine two streams of research ethnography in the broader social sciences and business marketing on dissolving relationships to propose a relational framework for conceptualizing and analyzing exit. The framework represents a first attempt to examine exiting ...

摘要:In order to assess whether new theories are necessary to explain new forms of organizing or existing theories suffice; we must first specify exactly what makes a form of organizing new. We propose clear criteria for making such an assessment and show how they are useful in assessing if and when new theories of organizing may truly be needed. We illustrate our arguments by contrasting forms of organizing often considered novel, such as Linux, Wikipedia, and Oticon, against their traditional cou...

摘要:This article provides a formal mathematical treatment of the link between competitive advantage and risk in strategic interaction. In the first part of the analysis, I establish a basic mechanism whereby a rational, profit-maximizing firm that is risk neutral with respect to realized profits. would nonetheless benefit from risk in the antecedent process of developing a competitive advantage. This result serves to motivate two game-theoretic models demonstrating that (1) the trade-off between r...

摘要:When thinking about the future, people often engage in affective forecasting predicting what it would feel like to experience a particular event. In this article we explore how a specific form of work ubiquitous in today's organizations project assignments provides cause to reconsider assumptions surrounding affective forecasting. To this end, we synthesize research on affective forecasting and theorize connections between affective forecasting and project success (versus failure), rooting our...

摘要:In many ways management theory and practice, like life, are anchored in opposites. Dichotomies abound: East and West, global and local, research and teaching, scholarship and practice, among many others. But are they truly oppositional? Taking a broad view of culture as a concept that encapsulates all human affairs, I propose that an ambicultural perspective and approach offer a way to integrate the best qualities of what may appear to be irreconcilable opposites. Expanding on my August 2013 A...
