The model specifies a range of implementation outcomes (including resis...

摘要:We examine how managers use strategic reference points (SRPs) or benchmarks to guide their strategic decision making with regard to human resource (HR) issues and how these benchmarks can affect the performance-based consequences of such decisions, After describing the reference points that are relevant to the HR system we develop propositions regarding the likely configuration of such reference points and their impact on the nature of HR policies and practices. We also explain hour the manage...

Drawing on several literature streams, we develop an evolutionary model that contrasts hot spot and non-hot spot competitors within the same industry. Initially, economies of agglomeration institutional forces, and managers' mental models create an innovative environment within the hot spot. Over time, those same forces create a homogeneous macroculture that suppresses innovation, making hot spot competitors more susceptible th...
