摘要：We argue that there are powerful forces in many organizations that cause widespread withholding of information about potential problems or issues by employees. We refer to this collective-level phenomenon as organizational silence. In our model we identify contextual variables that create conditions conducive to silence and explore the collective sensemaking dynamics that can create the shared perception that speaking up is unwise. We also discuss some of the negative consequences of systemic ...

摘要：Despite the increasing popularity of group pay-for-performance plans, relatively little theory exists regarding the dynamics of these plans. We integrate goal setting, pay plan characteristics, and group factors to explain and predict the effectiveness of what we call open-goal group pay plans. We introduce spontaneous goal setting as a process explanation and propose antecedents that affect a group's propensity to set goals, the goal level chosen, and goal commitment. Finally, we discuss impl...

摘要：Organizational theorists tend to homogenize what is, in reality, ct pluralistic world, emphasizing the discovery of unifying principles that lend organizational focus, legitimacy, and identity while downplaying some of the complexity that pluralism often entails. In their original formulation, most organizational theories have richness and depth in modeling pluralistic variety: over time, however, theorizing seems to have purchased parsimony and generality at the cost of accuracy or realism. W...

摘要：In recent research scholars have addressed the issue of an individual's behavior in feedback-seeking activity and. except in scant studies, have virtually ignored the role of culture in this area. In this article we explore four cultural syndromes, based on past research to form a cross-cultural model of feedback-seeking behavior. We advance propositions for the study of culture as ct moderator to feedback-seeking behavior.

摘要：It has been argued persuasively that social networks hold relevance for economic action. Yet, in light of the taken-foe-granted role of prices, it is crucial to specify when and how social networks influence the efficiency of economic actions taken by actors oriented primarily, as business firms tend to be, toward economic objectives. In this article I contend that when actors need to but cannot, independently or via market mechanisms, cost-effectively ascertain the identity and reliability of...

摘要：We explore two consequences of organizational restructuring that are unanticipated by managers. At the cognitive level of analysis, we propose that organizational restructuring hers the unanticipated consequence of producing cognitive order for top executives, and at the environmental level, organizational restructuring has the unanticipated consequence of contributing to long-term environmental turbulence. both feed back to promote further organizational restructuring, making restructuring a ...

摘要：Concepts of time vary dramatically across individuals and cultures. We draw from work in anthropology, psychology, sociology, and management to identify five time dimensions that guide our review and discussion of dynamic strategic management research. Although strategy researchers incorporate time in many ways, they generally ignore a subjective view of time and the temporal perceptions of actors in their models. We conclude by suggesting how strategy researchers and practitioners can incorpo...

摘要：We present a synthesis of the general dimensions of organizational culture used most commonly in extant research and outline how these general dimensions correspond to the specific values and beliefs underlying total quality management (TQM) practice (a comprehensive change initiative). We argue that the relationship between culture and implementation of new behaviors and practices has not been adequately explored because of the lack of a comprehensive framework for defining and measuring orga...
