• The adoption of institutionally contested organizational practices: The emergence of stock option pay in Germany AI翻译

  摘要：Examining the transnational diffusion of organizational practices from institutional environments in which they are legitimate to environments in which key institutional actors contest them, we contrast processes facilitating pioneering adoptions of contested practices with processes that diffuse the contested practices. Courageous adopters of contested practices are likely to have (1) exposure to high-status institutional environments in which the practices are legitimate and (2) experience w...
• Do the stories they tell get them the money they need? The role of entrepreneurial narratives in resource acquisition AI翻译

  摘要：Adopting a narrative approach to resource acquisition research, we examine the effects of storytelling on a firm's ability to secure capital. We argue that narratives help leverage resources by conveying a comprehensible identity for an entrepreneurial firm, elaborating the logic behind proposed means of exploiting opportunities and embedding entrepreneurial endeavors within broader discourses. Qualitative analyses of all 1996-2000 initial public offering prospectuses in three high-tech indust...

• Flattery will get you everywhere (especially if you are a male caucasian): How ingratiation, boardroom behavior, and demographic minority status affect additional board appointments at US companies AI翻译

  摘要：This study examined influences on the likelihood that directors of U.S. corporations will receive additional board appointments. We tested hypotheses with original survey data from 760 outside directors at large and medium-sized U.S. firms. Supplementary analyses assessed post-Enron era generalizability. Directors increased their chances of board appointments via provision of advice and information to CEOs and ingratiatory behavior toward peer directors. Ethnic minorities and women were reward...
• Sorting and incentive effects of pay for performance: An experimental investigation AI翻译

  摘要：Agency theory highlights losses in productivity that may occur when the interests of owners and employees are imperfectly aligned. Pay for performance has been proposed as a solution to this problem. Using a real-effort laboratory experiment with salient incentives, we compared pay-for-performance and fixed-salary compensation. The former achieved significantly higher firm productivity through both sorting and incentive effects. In particular, more productive employees selected pay for perform...

  摘要：Conceptualizing different foreign entry modes as distinct organizational forms, we examine how wholly owned foreign subsidiaries (WOFSs) gain legitimacy in a host country. Drawing on the institutional and ecological perspectives, we build a legitimation framework based on the ideas of identity, community, and audience. Specifically, we identify dual sources of legitimating influences for these subsidiaries in China in 1979-95: foreign direct investment (FDI) communities, and host country publi...
• Interlevel influences on the reconstruction of professional role identity AI翻译
  作者：Chreim, Samia; Williams, B. E. (Bernie); Hinings, C. R. (Bob)
  作者单位：University of Ottawa; University of Lethbridge; University of Alberta
  摘要：Research on roles and identities generally represents a micro perspective that does not account for the reconstruction of professional role identity, owing to insufficient attention to institutional forces. We trace institutional influences on professional role identity reconstruction and extend theory by building bridges across institutional, organizational, and individual levels of analysis. Findings indicate that agentic reconstruction of professional role identity is enabled and constraine...
