摘要：Going beyond prior research that has focused on dyadic, party-specific trust, this study investigates the importance of generalized trust, which is not specific to a counterparty and originates from a broader context. We analyze how generalized trust at the regional level affects the extent to which a firm relies on external suppliers and the performance effects of doing so. Furthermore, we assess how these relationships are impacted by an economic downturn. We exploit differences in generaliz...

摘要：Various strands of work have explored how spatial proximity helps (metaphorically) bridge barriers to resource mobilization and foster knowledge transfer. However, much of that work takes spatial connectedness as a given. We argue that spatial connectedness is a distinct construct that affects the extent to which spaces are not just proximate but are actually able to link people, ideas, resources, and knowledge together. We explore one such source of connectedness-physical (not metaphorical) b...

摘要：Our aim is to explore whether the benefits to firms of using community-based innovation extend to nascent markets: uncertain, high-velocity settings with novel, often complex products. Grounded in a rare empirical comparison, we closely track the two ventures (one using community-based innovation and the other firm-based) that pioneered the nascent civilian drone market. We unpack how each addressed the three major innovations that shaped this setting. Our primary insight is that the firm orga...

摘要：Although scholars have highlighted the benefits of psychological safety, relatively few studies have examined how leaders establish it. Whereas existing research points to the importance of seeking feedback, we draw on theories of self-disclosure, trust, and implicit voice to propose that leaders can also promote psychological safety by sharing feedback-openly discussing criticisms and suggestions they have already received about their own performance. In Study 1, naturally-occurring feedback-...

摘要：The institutional context, which includes the normative, regulative, and cognitive dimensions of social life within the various constitutive spheres of society, has a strong influence on entrepreneurial processes and outcomes. Institutions shape who becomes an entrepreneur, opportunity creation, identification, and evaluation, as well as how entrepreneurs attempt to start new firms. We introduce a novel framework that unifies the two dominant perspectives in sociological neoinstitutionalism, t...

摘要：Despite the generally positive consequences associated with justice, recent research suggests that supervisors cannot always enact justice, and responses to justice may not be universally positive. Thus, justice is likely to vary in both how much it is received and the employee reactions it engenders. In order to understand the range of justice responses, we develop a dynamic theory of justice by using person-environment fit to take both the value that an individual places in justice and the j...

摘要：We examine how experience-induced adaptations that affect the breadth of an ongoing activity affect performance. The research on organizational learning suggests that accumulating experience, both from repetition and adaptation at the activity level, improves outcomes. Yet, findings on the effects of increasing breadth-the number of different processes making up an activity-are mixed. Greater breadth exposes organizations to diverse activities. It also generates an additional need for coordina...

摘要：We examine how institutional factors may affect microlevel career decisions by individuals to create new firms by impacting their ability to exercise entrepreneurial preferences, their accumulation of human capital, and the opportunity costs associated with new venture formation. We focus on an important institutional factor-immigration-related work constraints-given that technologically intensive firms in the United States not only draw upon immigrants as knowledge workers but also because su...
