• Theory-based learning and experimentation: How strategists can systematically generate knowledge at the edge between the known and the unknown AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary We present a framework for theory-based learning and experimentation under uncertainty. Strategists' assumptions about how an envisioned future can be reached are likely incomplete and possibly wrong, for instance, if critical contingencies have been overlooked. We explain how strategists can learn from thinking about and testing necessary conditions for an envisioned future to materialize. By logically linking assumptions to consequences our framework allows drawing inference...
• From a shareholder to stakeholder orientation: Evidence from the analyses of CEO dismissal in large US firms AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary The post-Enron era is marked with growing discourse of stakeholders, sustainability, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Yet, commentators debate whether U.S. corporations have indeed moved toward a stakeholder orientation, given the difficulties in measuring such a shift. We assess this shift by examining corporate governance practices, especially the prevalence of shareholder- and stakeholder-oriented practices in chief executive officer (CEO) dismissals. Using data o...
• Competing on freemium: Digital competition with network effects AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary Freemium product strategies-where a free basic version of a product is offered alongside a full premium paid version-are often used by companies to attempt to increase the size of their user base and benefit from network effects. However, there is limited empirical evidence of how using freemium strategies impacts firm revenues. We empirically investigate how the strengthening of network effects on the Apple App Store influenced product sales of firms using freemium strategies...
• Degree assortativity in collaboration networks and invention performance AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary We investigate the implications of the degree assortativity of intra-firm networks for firms' innovation performance. We argue that prevalent patterns of collaborative relationships between organizational members can lead to variations in the levels of degree assortativity in intra-firm networks, ranging from disassortative structures (highly central members connect with peripheral members) to assortative ones (highly central members connect with other highly central members a...
• Firms' responses to changes in frictions in related human capital factor markets AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary Strategic human capital scholars suggest that firms' human capital rents are greater when labor market frictions are more prevalent. Taking this argument further, we suggest that when frictions for one type of human capital decrease, firms are motivated to place greater emphasis on human capital that is interdependent in production where frictions are unchanged. Empirically, we exploit an exogenous institutional change in the National Football League to demonstrate that coachi...
• Whatever you want, whatever you like: How incumbents respond to changes in market information regimes AI翻译
  作者：Zanella, Paola; Cillo, Paola; Verona, Gianmario

  摘要：Research Summary How do incumbents respond to a market information regime change? We employ literatures on product portfolio strategies and capability adaptation to analyze the information regime change induced by the advent of streaming in the U.S. music industry. Our findings highlight that an information change impacts the strategy of organizations. We observe that the inclusion of streaming reveals increasing demand for novelty and variety. Finally, we identify breadth of experience as a d...
• Building knowledge by mapping model uncertainty in six studies of social and financial performance AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary Many scholars bemoan the difficulty of learning from individual research reports. Replication is often prescribed as a salve, but few replications are conducted, and even fewer allow the formation of a coherent understanding. In this article, we propose a complement to replication that emphasizes the mapping of epistemic uncertainties. We demonstrate our approach by exploring the results of six related studies on the link between social and financial performance. We show that ...
