摘要：Research SummaryGaining categorical status via a ranking places firms in a new comparison group and makes their behaviors more visible, potentially exposing them to greater scrutiny. How do marginally included firms respond? In this article, we propose that firms will take action in the area of CSR in order to secure their standing, deflect potential criticism, and reduce the anxiety that arises, paradoxically, from being included in a ranking. Using a regression discontinuity design involving...

摘要：Research Abstract: Strategy as practice is one of the most vibrant approaches to strategy research. Yet, there is significant ambiguity around what characterizes an activity as strategic and thus as falling into the domain of strategy as practice. In this article, we address this fundamental concern by differentiating four distinctive views of what qualifies activities as strategic: (1) activities that have important consequences, (2) activities that are labeled strategic, (3) activities carri...

摘要：Research summaryThis study utilizes the administrative data of an innovation grant program in a major emerging economy to study which firms are best positioned to capture the state and access resources beyond what their rule-complying merits command. We trace the grant allocation process and directly observe occurrences of rule-violating funding. We show that firms vary in capability to secure irregular awards, depending on factors such as geographic proximity and the social and bureaucratic s...

摘要：Research SummaryThis study contrasts traditional entry dynamics with platform owner entry into a complementor market and examines cross-platform complementor response to competition with the platform. Generalists experience low repositioning cost and are more likely to shift effort away, while specialists focus their effort on the focal platform. We examine Apple's Files app entry and find support for our hypotheses: generalists shift effort toward the competing platform, while specialists dou...

摘要：Research SummaryWe examine the joint adoption of four employment restrictions that limit firm resource outflows-nondisclosure (NDA), non-solicitation, non-recruitment, and noncompete agreements-and their associations with value appropriation from employees. Using novel individual- and firm-level survey data, we find that when firms adopt restrictions, they tend to adopt either all four restrictions or only an NDA. Adoption of all four restrictions is more likely when workers have access to val...

摘要：Research SummaryThis article examines the association between ideology and firm participation in sociopolitical activism. In particular, it focuses on the ideological alignment between a firm's upper echelons and its general employees. We theorize that participation in progressive corporate activism reflects the ideological views of both the top management team and general employees. By examining firm participation in letter campaigns supporting progressive causes, our findings indicate that i...
