• Corporate Social Responsibility Reporting in China: Symbol or Substance? AI翻译
  作者：Marquis, Christopher; Qian, Cuili
  作者单位：Harvard University; City University of Hong Kong
  摘要：This study focuses on how and why firms strategically respond to government signals on appropriate corporate activity. We integrate institutional theory with research on corporate political strategy to develop a political dependence model that explains (a) how different types of dependency on the government lead firms to issue corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports and (b) how the risk of governmental monitoring affects the extent to which CSR reports are symbolic or substantive. First,...
• Weaving Straw into Gold: Managing Organizational Tensions Between Standardization and Flexibility in Microfinance AI翻译
  作者：Canales, Rodrigo
  作者单位：Yale University
  摘要：This article explores how organizations balance the pressures to pursue efficiency through standardization with the need to remain responsive to local needs. The study combines rich ethnography with detailed loan data to show that both standardization and flexibility through relational ties provide substantial organizational benefits but also carry significant costs; thus, no strategy is inherently superior, and their coexistence generates the best results. Such coexistence, however, creates c...
• Temporal Elements in Career Selection Decisions: An Archival Study Investigating Career Decisions in Medicine AI翻译

  摘要：Time is a ubiquitous but often omitted variable in career selection decisions. This study investigates the impact of temporal elements on career selection decisions, thus advancing our understanding of both career decision making and the impact of timing on decision making. We investigate the influence of timing and duration of experience with career options on career selection decisions in an archival study using medical residents' rotation schedules. We also investigate factors that mitigate...
• Players and Purists: Networking Strategies and Agency of Service Professionals AI翻译
  作者：Bensaou, Ben M.; Galunic, Charles; Jonczyk-Sedes, Claudia

  摘要：Social capital research has established the performance advantages of networking. However, we know surprisingly little about the strategies individuals employ when networking and, in particular, the underlying agency mechanisms involved. Network analysis tends to presume structural determinism and ignore issues of endogeneity rather than explore how actors draw on schemas, beliefs, and values in developing their networks. This empirical paper induces three networking strategies of newly promot...
• Searching for Alliance Partners: Effects of Geographic Distance on the Formation of R&D Collaborations AI翻译
  作者：Reuer, Jeffrey J.; Lahiri, Nandini
  作者单位：Purdue University System; Purdue University; Pennsylvania Commonwealth System of Higher Education (PCSHE); Temple University
  摘要：We investigate how geographic distance influences which firms engage each other in research and development (R&D) collaborations. Given advances in technology, geographic distance might not be expected to affect who partners with whom, yet recent research has reported on the localization of exchanges in numerous market settings. We identify factors that shape the degree to which geographic distance matters to alliance formation by considering the heterogeneity in adverse selection risk across ...
• Too Close for Comfort? The Effect of Embeddedness and Competitive Overlap on Client Relationship Retention Following an Acquisition AI翻译
  作者：Rogan, Michelle
  作者单位：INSEAD Business School
  摘要：Drawing on insights from network dynamics and exchange theory, I develop and test arguments for the retention or dissolution of exchange relationships. I exploit mergers and acquisitions among advertising firms as strategic actions that change the networks in which they and their clients are situated, and examine the consequences of these changes for their network relationships. Analysis of an archival, longitudinal data set confirms that, in general, relational embeddedness reduces the likeli...
• Great, Madama Butterfly Again! How Robust Market Identity Shapes Opera Repertoires AI翻译
  作者：Jensen, Michael; Kim, Bo Kyung
  作者单位：University of Michigan System; University of Michigan; Southern Methodist University
  摘要：We develop a theoretical framework to explain how two aspects of market structures-divergent and convergent audience preference and within-and between-category competition-shape market identities. We focus specifically on robust market identities, an underresearched type of identity defined as balanced membership in divergent social categories. We argue that these identities are most prevalent in markets with more divergent audiences and less within-category competition. We test our arguments ...
• The Structure of Competition: How Competition Between One's Rivals Influences Imitative Market Entry AI翻译
  作者：Hsieh, Kai-Yu; Vermeulen, Freek
  作者单位：National University of Singapore; University of London; London Business School
  摘要：This paper investigates how the pattern of encounters between a firm's competitors affects the firm's inclination to follow its competitors into a new market. We theorize that direct encounters between a firm's rivals lead to a herding effect, making imitative market entry more likely. Past mutual forbearance between a firm's competitors (resulting from asymmetric multimarket competition) further strengthens this herding effect, by enhancing the firm's expectations of market attractiveness. In...
• What Is a Relationship Worth? Repeated Exchange and the Development and Deployment of Relational Capital AI翻译
  作者：Elfenbein, Daniel W.; Zenger, Todd R.
  作者单位：Washington University (WUSTL)
  摘要：Organization scholars have highlighted the value of relationships in fostering effective exchange, suggesting that repeated exchange creates a relational asset with latent value derived from elevated social connections, norms, and simple expectations of exchange continuity. Yet the empirical evidence supporting such claims remains largely indirect. As a consequence, few studies have been able to directly examine how contextual factors shape the accumulation of this relational asset or define i...
• Performance Feedback and Firm Risk Taking: The Moderating Effects of CEO and Outside Director Stock Options AI翻译
  作者：Lim, Elizabeth N. K.; McCann, Brian T.
  作者单位：University System of Georgia; Georgia State University; Vanderbilt University
  摘要：We contribute to the behavioral theory of the firm and the behavioral agency model by developing a theoretical framework that predicts the differential interaction effects of performance feedback and values of stock option grants of multiple agents on firm risk taking. We explain how chief executive officers (CEOs) versus outside directors awarded with stock option grants perceive negative or positive deviations from prior performance. We argue that in a negative attainment discrepancy context...
