摘要:We extend the concept of celebrity from the individual to the firm level of analysis and argue that the high level of public attention and the positive emotional responses that define celebrity increase the economic opportunities available to a firm. We develop alpha theoretical framework explaining how the media construct firm celebrity by creating alpha dramatized reality in reporting on industry change and firms' actions. Firms contribute to this process by taking nonconforming actions and ...

摘要:Instead of paradigmatic unity. we call for progressive theory development from a set of core concepts (Lakatos, 1970) comprising primacy of relations, ubiquity of embeddedness. social utility of connections, and structural patterning of social life. Organizational network research can capture complexity and distinctiveness of individuals and networks in terms of mutual constitution and change. The goal is not to delineate small puzzles whose outcomes are predetermined but to signal bold ideas ...

We maintain that in this emerging form of entrepreneurship, typically rooted in community culture, natural and social capital are integral and inseparable from economic considerations, transforming the community into an entrepreneur and an enterprise. Drawing on interdisciplinary and multilevel approaches, we propose a...

摘要:We identify two discursive formations of organizational surveillance (two coherent but competing systems of representation) that figure prominently in organization and management studies: the coercive formation and the caring formation. These formations have allowed communities of researchers who share basic theoretical assumptions to build distinctive bodies of knowledge about surveillance's purpose and consequences. We propose an ironic approach that allows us to consider the coercive and ca...

摘要:By considering the amount of uncertainty perceived and the willingness to bear uncertainty concomitantly, we provide a more complete conceptual model of entrepreneurial action that allows for examination of entrepreneurial action at the individual level of analysis while remaining consistent with a rich legacy of system-level theories of the entrepreneur. Our model not only exposes, limitations of existing theories of entrepreneurial action but also contributes to a deeper understanding of imp...
