  摘要：Research Summary: This study explores incumbent responses to the architectural innovation shock of index shifting in the bicycle component industry. Incumbents differed by when they imitated and by organization of production-some integrated while others outsourced components-and many of these decisions changed over time, which are not explained by extant theory. This paper develops a theory that predicts timing of imitation and organizational choice for component manufacturing that highlights ...
• Collaborating to manage performance trade-offs: How fire departments preserve life and save property AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary: We examine how formal collaboration allows organizations to resolve performance trade-offs that cannot be resolved informally. The theory is tested on U.S. fire departments, which pursue goals that sometimes conflict: reducing casualties and saving property. By relying on intrinsic motivation, informal collaboration reduces casualties and saves some property above what departments can achieve alone. Formal contracts are needed to achieve additional performance improvements on...

  摘要：Research Summary: Shocks, whether they derive from shifts in demand, supply, regulation, or innovation, can create the need for competitive repositioning by industry participants when they disrupt established sources of competitive advantage. Such situations can therefore create a canonical strategic problem: whether, where, and how to (re-)position following an industry shock. In this paper, we explore the role of comparative adjustment costs in determining competitive advantage in dynamic en...
• Misaccounting for endogeneity: The peril of relying on the Heckman two-step method without a valid instrument AI翻译

  摘要：Research Summary: Strategy research addresses endogeneity by incorporating econometric techniques, including Heckman's two-step method. The economics literature theorizes regarding optimal usage of Heckman's method, emphasizing the valid exclusion condition necessary in the first stage. However, our meta-analysis reveals that only 54 of 165 relevant papers published in the top strategy and organizational theory journals during 1995-2016 claim a valid exclusion restriction. Without this conditi...
• When does advice impact startup performance? AI翻译

  摘要：Why do some entrepreneurs thrive while others fail? We explore whether the advice entrepreneurs receive about managing their employees influences their startup's performance. We conducted a randomized field experiment in India with 100 high-growth technology firms whose founders received in-person advice from other entrepreneurs who varied in their managerial style. We find that entrepreneurs who received advice from peers with a formal approach to managing people-instituting regular meetings,...
