摘要:Little is known about when and where hybrid organizations diffuse. We argue that neo-institutional perspectives, which stress the constraining role of market categories and institutional logics, have to be complemented with demand-side perspectives that stress the enabling force of economic incentives to explain the origins of hybrids. We develop theory to predict the country-level diffusion of hybrid forms in Islamic banking in the 1975-2017 period, during which many conventional banks invade...

摘要:Firms using stigmatized inputs are likely to experience strong pressures from multiple stakeholders who demand removal of such inputs from firm operations. Consistent with this phenomenon, we propose that greater levels of input stigma decrease firm performance and that firms respond to this threat by reducing the use of such inputs. However, we argue that not all firms are equally able to remove stigmatized inputs. Firms with a high degree of input overlap among their product units will be le...

摘要:Y We examine how the introduction of a technology that automates research tasks influences the rate and type of researchers' knowledge production. To do this, we leverage the unanticipated arrival of an automating motion-sensing research technology that occurred as a consequence of the introduction and subsequent hacking of the Microsoft Kinect system. To estimate whether this technology induces changes in the type of knowledge produced, we employ novel measures based on machine learning (topi...

摘要:We investigate the impact of financial restatements as critical events that influence board interlock formation among Fortune 500 firms during the 2009-2013 period. Our empirical study is based on a longitudinal analysis of tie formation while accounting for dynamic changes in the behavior and characteristics of network nodes using stochastic actor-oriented models. We find that firms facing financial restatements experience disruption in network ties. However, social status helps mitigate thes...

摘要:Many organizational contexts. In this paper, we examine a multilevel model of how team goal orientation affects cross-understanding-the extent to which team members understand the other members' mental models-which in turn, affects team and individual performance. We examine these effects using 160 teams of 859 participants who completed a semester-long business simulation. Findings show that the more team members are motivated by learning goals, the greater a team's cross-understanding and su...

摘要:In this paper, we apply a core/periphery framework to an intraorganizational context to study the interplay between formal and informal core/periphery structures. Specifically, we consider how core positions occupied by inventors in the corporate research and development division of a large multinational high-tech company affect their ability to generate incremental innovations. We theorize and empirically observe that formal and informal core positions have positive and independent effects on...

摘要:Although the diversity of cultural expectations for different corporate governance practices has been acknowledged, our understanding of how companies use cultural differences to legitimize their governance practice choice and facilitate their resource acquisition remains limited. Building on the literature on cultural entrepreneurship, we theorize how foreign-listed firms engage in global framing in tailoring the description of their new governance practice to the host country investors. Our ...

摘要:Several case studies suggest that firms targeting mass market services can align profitability with jobs offering a living wage, stable schedules, and engaging work. Yet, few do. To understand this puzzle, we draw on theories of firms as systems of interdependent choices. Building on a few cases, we map the processes connecting managerial choice to performance and formalize the resulting performance landscape. In a strategy space defined by two dimensions-task richness and compensation-two loc...

摘要:We offer theory and evidence about how the fit between firm experience (supply side) and consumer preferences (demand side) affects postentry performance into a new technology. Specifically, we explore different types of preentry experience (technological and market experience) and use different aspects of postentry performance to draw inferences about consumer heterogeneity. Preentry technological experience (same product and different consumers) helps firms attract a larger share of intensiv...

摘要:Leader exits at the work-unit level are prevalent, yet little attention has been devoted to understanding the impact of leader succession on employee turnover. In this paper, we draw from uncertainty-management theory to specify and test conditions under which leader exits are followed by increases (or decreases) in the turnover rates of remaining members. We theorize that leader exits disrupt the status quo and heighten remaining members' feelings of uncertainty and propose that characteristi...
