摘要:Using 560 followers and 174 leaders in the People's Republic of China and United States, we found that individual follower's power distance orientation and their group's shared perceptions of transformational leadership were positively related to follower's procedural justice perceptions. Power distance orientation also moderated the cross-level relationship that transformational leadership had with procedural justice; the relationship was more positive when power distance orientation was lowe...

摘要:Previous research indicates that entrepreneurs are generally high in dispositional optimism-the tendency to expect positive outcomes even when such expectations are not rationally justified. Findings of the current study demonstrate a negative relationship between entrepreneurs' optimism and the performance (revenue and employment growth) of their new ventures. Past experience creating ventures and industry dynamism moderated these effects, strengthening the negative relationship between entre...

摘要:Alliance portfolios are ubiquitous and influential for firm performance. Extant research addresses attributes of high-performing alliance portfolios but not how executives originate such portfolios. In our inductive case study of six entrepreneurial rivals in the wireless gaming industry, we find that executives are more likely to originate high-performing portfolios when they visualize their portfolios in the context of the entire industry as opposed to a series of single ties and when they s...

摘要:We examine one potential reason for the persistence of the glass ceiling: bosses' perceptions of female subordinates' family-work conflict. Person categorization and social role theories are used to examine whether bosses (both male and female) perceive women as having greater family-work conflict and therefore view them as mismatched to their organizations and jobs. The results support our model: bosses' perceptions of family-work conflict mediated the relationships between subordinate sex an...

摘要:The current study tested a model that links perceptions of organizational politics to job performance and turnover intentions (intentions to quit). Meta-analytic evidence supported significant, bivariate relationships between perceived politics and strain (.48), turnover intentions (.43), job satisfaction (-.57), affective commitment (-.54), task performance (-.20), and organizational citizenship behaviors toward individuals (-.16) and organizations (-.20). Additionally, results demonstrated t...

摘要:We build on multiple theoretical perspectives to investigate the unique and joint effects of individual- and opportunity-level factors affecting job creation in new firms. We tested hypotheses using survey data from individuals who transitioned from unemployment to self-employment under the auspices of a German public policy program. Our findings reveal that an entrepreneur's breadth of knowledge has a negative influence on the firm's job creation, whereas the entrepreur's leadership experienc...

摘要:Many fear that the mobility of corporate investment creates a race to the bottom in international environmental regulations as firms invest in the countries with the weakest environmental protections. But the relationship between environmental regulation and investment is poorly understood. I hypothesize that intercountry institutional distance and firm environmental capabilities moderate the relationship between the stringency of a country's environmental regulations and firms' investment in ...

摘要:We examine the antecedents and consequences in developing countries of creating a national stock exchange, a core technology of financial globalization. We study local conditions and global institutional pressures in the rapid spread of exchanges since the 1980s and examine how conditions at the point of adoption affected exchanges' subsequent vibrancy. Little prior research connects the process of diffusion with the operational performance of adopted policies. We find that international coerc...

摘要:We extend institutional theory's account of diffusion by examining the interplay between economic and social considerations in adoption decisions. Drawing on organizational decision-making research, we argue that both early and late adopters respond to framing and interpreting adoption decision situations as opportunities versus threats. Using data on the diffusion of total quality management (TQM) among U.S. hospitals, we found that motivations to appear legitimate coexist with motivations to...
