摘要:Research SummaryWe explore misconduct scandalization's antecedents by focusing on the rational and emotional bases underlying reputation and celebrity, and considering how they can enhance or reduce the likelihood misconduct is scandalized as a function of the misconduct's objective and perceived severity. Specifically, we argue the quantifiable nature of objective misconduct severity enhances reputation's rational influence, but attenuates celebrity's emotion-based appeal. Conversely, perceiv...

摘要:Research SummaryThis research addresses the tension of audiences often rejecting creative products despite creativity being foundational to organizational success. To better understand this issue, we take an abductive approach to disentangle the effects of creative content (how creative the core concept is) and creative packaging (how creatively the core concept is presented and visualized) while accounting for audiences' different expertise levels. Across two archival studies and a pre-regist...

摘要:Research SummaryPlatforms create value by connecting users to complementors offering goods or services. Complementors compete on platforms but may also benefit each other by drawing demand to the platform, which may then spillover from one complementor to another. This tension raises the question: When are relationships between complementors competitive versus complementary? To help address this question, I apply theory on agglomeration-driven demand spillovers to examine when on-platform dema...

摘要:Research SummaryThis study abductively investigates how a firm's degree of business model development-the extent to which strategic choices are crystallized-moderates the impact of a scientific approach to decision-making on performance. We present findings from a field experiment involving 261 entrepreneurs, where treated entrepreneurs learn to apply a scientific approach, while control counterparts receive comparable content without this approach. Results show that the effect of scientific d...

摘要:Research Summary: We develop the following typology of four types of acquisition synergies by integrating the multisidedness feature of digital platforms with the mainstream strategy research: complementary-technology-side economies of scope, complementary-technology-side economies of scale, user-side economies of scope, and user-side economies of scale. We show that (1) acquisition synergies are entry-deterring, (2) synergies derived from economies of scope have stronger effects than those de...

摘要:Research SummaryExtant work in strategic management has focused on the role of noncompete agreements (NCAs)-a form of restrictive legal lever used by firms when managing human capital-and conceptualized them as being advantageous to firms. Challenging this notion, we highlight a novel downside of using NCAs and show how their use by some firms creates differentiation opportunities for rival firms. We analyze a unique survey dataset to examine the heterogeneity in the firms' actual use of NCAs ...
