摘要:To succeed in growing and scaling their organization, start-ups must establish roles, routines, rules, and plans that coordinate organizational activities. However, early-stage start-ups often lack such coordination mechanisms. Through a longitudinal qualitative multiple-case study of five start-ups, we develop a theoretical framework for how startups develop and improve coordination over time. We find that start-ups establish coordination through a learning sequence consisting of four distinc...

摘要:The growing diversity in today's workplace requires engaging with people who not only look different but also think different. Yet, research on workplace relations has treated similarity-attraction as a human universal and paid limited attention to individual dif-ferences in who respects or tolerates different views and values, and why. We address this gap by examining how lay theories people hold about instrumental relations affect dispositional similarity-attraction. Because people who hold ...

摘要:We conducted an inductive study of discourse associated with the U.S. luxury hotel cate-gory, from its beginnings in 1790 through 2015, to explain how cultural processes con-tribute to elite category endurance. Analyzing data from historical archives, interviews, and observations, we use both qualitative and quantitative methods to reveal how the endurance of an elite category is an ongoing cultural accomplishment that occurs via periodic redefinition of its symbolic boundary-that is, the set ...

摘要:How do producers' distinctiveness and social structure influence third-party certifications? We argue that producers compete against prior and current competitors, and against their past selves. In the context of 153 artists active during a key period of the emergence of modern art (1905-1916), we utilize a convolutional neural network used in computer vision to extract feature vectors of artworks, and measure quantitative distance of these artists' works from canonical reference points. We fi...

摘要:Grand challenges are system-wide problems. While top-down approaches to mitigating grand challenges may have potentially far-reaching impact, such initiatives from the higher scales can fail because of limited knowledge of ground realities. At the same time, resilient local efforts to address societal challenges can have limited reach. How can a grassroots organization work across locations and scales to address a grand challenge? We report the findings of a longitudinal case study of the Chil...

摘要:Job demands-resources research has largely adopted a variable-centered approach to test main and interactive effects of demands and resources on employee outcomes. However, this approach cannot detect distinct configurations of job demands and resources that may lead to the same outcomes, and the many multiplicative models attempting to do so have received little support. We take a person-centered theoretical approach to examine configurations of demands and resources that are sufficient to pr...

摘要:Employee awards programs are prevalent in organizations. This research examines a group of employees who have received relatively less attention in the employee awards literature: those who are nominated for but fail to receive an award. Integrating social comparison theory with the functional theory of counterfactual thinking, we argue that nonwinner nominees go through complex motivational states and affective experiences, which influence their collaboration responsiveness to colleagues. We ...

摘要:We propose a novel process through which status shocks may enhance performance. Specifically, we theorize that, when status shocks include a ritualistic conferment of social prestige-such as in the case of tournament rituals-participating in that ritual enactment may increase tournament winners' productivity and improve the inputs they receive, thereby improving their overall performance. We also consider the duration of that performance improvement, finding a decay that is consistent with our...

摘要:In this study we consider whether (a) image-and word-based communication modes and (b) warmth and competence cues vary in their relative influence on different levels of stakeholder engagement on social media. Specifically, we explore social media fitness influencers' abilities to attract followers and get followers to positively interact with them via posts and comments. We theorize that differences in the ways each communica-tion mode is processed, and differences in how competence and warmt...
