  摘要：Taking a theoretical perspective contrasting resource exploitation with resource exploration, we argue that foreign direct investments' (FDIs') hazard rates are lower in countries that are either more or less developed than a home country than are FDIs' hazard rates in countries of similar economic development. We obtained strong supporting evidence in a sample of FDIs made by Singapore firms. Further, using the reasoning of strategic coalignment, we argue that acquisitions have lower hazard r...
• R&D alliances and firm performance: The impact of technological diversity and alliance organization on innovation AI翻译

  摘要：In this paper, I examine the impact of partner technological diversity and alliance organizational form on firm innovative performance. Using a sample of 463 R&D alliances in the telecommunications equipment industry, I find that alliances contribute far more to firm innovation when technological diversity is moderate, rather than low or high. Although this relationship holds irrespective of alliance organization, I find that hierarchical organization, such as an equity joint venture, improves...
• Building theoretical and empirical bridges across levels: Multilevel research in management AI翻译

  摘要：Most management problems involve multilevel phenomena, yet most management research uses a single level of analysis. A micro or a macro lens alone yields incomplete understanding at either level. Multilevel research addresses the levels of theory, measurement, and analysis required to fully examine research questions. This forum presents multilevel research on bribery, national identity, team boundary spanning, professional role identity, organizational citizenship, interorganizational exchang...

• Leadership behavior and employee voice: Is the door really open? AI翻译

  摘要：We investigate the relationships between two types of change-oriented leadership (transformational leadership and managerial openness) and subordinate improvement-oriented voice in a two-phase study. Findings from 3,149 employees and 223 managers in a restaurant chain indicate that openness is more consistently related to voice, given controls for numerous individual differences in subordinates' personality, satisfaction, and job demography. This relationship is shown to be mediated by subordi...
• The downside of self-management: A longitudinal study of the effects of conflict on trust, autonomy, and task interdependence in self-managing teams AI翻译
  作者：Langfred, Claus W.

  摘要：The very flexibility and adaptability that make self-managing teams effective can also be limiting and dysfunctional. I propose that self-managing teams may unintentionally restructure themselves inefficiently in response to conflict. Although detrimental consequences of conflict are normally considered as process-related, I explore possible structure-related effects. Specifically, I suggest that increased team conflict is associated with lower intrateam trust, which in turn may influence team...
• Radical change accidentally: The emergence and amplification of small change AI翻译

  摘要：A decision to offer breakfast to homeless people led to radical change in a church and its environment. Existing theories of change do not fully explain observations from our qualitative study; however, complexity theory constructs suggest how and why such change emerged. We offer four key findings. First, the radical change was unintended, emergent, and slow. Second, destabilizing conditions helped small changes to emerge and become radical. Third, subsequent actions amplified an initial smal...
• Knowledge-based innovation: Emergence and embedding of new practice areas in management consulting firms AI翻译

  摘要：How do innovative knowledge-based structures emerge and become embedded in organizations? We drew on theories of knowledge-intensive firms, communities of practice, and professional service firms to analyze multiple cases of new practice area creation in management consulting firms. Our qualitative analysis identified four critical generative elements: socialized agency, differentiated expertise, defensible turf, and organizational support. We demonstrate that these elements must be combined i...
• Disentangling the influences of leaders' relational embeddedness on interorganizational exchange AI翻译
  作者：Barden, Jeffrey Q.; Mitchell, Will
  作者单位：University of Washington; University of Washington Seattle; Duke University
  摘要：Drawing on the concept of relational embeddedness and the associated mechanisms of mutual understanding, trust, and commitment, we examine how leaders' prior exchange experiences influence the likelihood of subsequent interorganizational exchange. We begin to develop a microlevel model of organization-level relations that accounts for nodal multiplexity. In data on baseball player trades, we found that individual leaders' ties affected exchanges less than did an organization's other ties. The ...
• High-performance human resource practices, citizenship behavior, and organizational performance: A relational perspective AI翻译

  摘要：Taking a relational perspective on the employment relationship, we examined processes (mediation and moderation) linking high-performance human resource practices and productivity and turnover, two indicators of organizational performance. Multilevel analysis of data from hotels in the People's Republic of China revealed that service-oriented organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) partially mediated the relationships between high-performance human resource practices and both performance ind...
