摘要:Public organizations have widely adopted performance measurement practices that carry significant consequences for both organizations and their employees. This article proposes that the design of these performance-based accountability systems plays a crucial role in shaping organizational performance. First, we develop a typology of performance-based accountability systems, proposing that strong incentives aimed at the organization, rather than the individual employee, may help mitigate the ri...

Research indicates that the decision to corporatize is driven, among other factors, by the pursuit of financial sustainability in public organizations. A continuing debate revolves around whether the political ideology of incumbents is linked to the creation of SOEs. However, limited attention has been given to understandi...

This article addresses this gap by synthesizing existing knowledge on AT and refining its conceptualization in three steps. First, a systematic review of 505 publications since 1998 elucidates the diverse understandings of AT and the study contexts in which the concept is used. Secondly, ten ...

Expanding upon the established notion of the negative relationship between goal ambiguity and performance in public organizations, this study goes one step further by exploring how exogenous shocks may exacerbate this adverse impact. Focusing on the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent responses taken by the South Korean government, this study aims to offer a...

摘要:The theoretical literature on social capital and disasters, as well as conventional wisdom, suggests the importance of pre-disaster relationship building among leaders of responding organizations and agencies for disaster readiness and response. Often implied, but rarely tested empirically, research presumes a positive and linear relationship associated with investments in social capital for effective disaster response. Any amount of relationship building is better than none, but more is bette...
