• Where is the me among the we. Identity work and the search for optimal balance AI翻译

  摘要：Through two qualitative studies, we examine how members of a particularly demanding occupation conduct identity work to negotiate an optimal balance between personal and social identities. Findings are based on open-ended survey responses from and in-depth interviews with Episcopal priests. We first explore the situational and vocational demands placed on those in challenging occupations, along with the identity tensions that often result from those demands. We then specify and classify severa...
• Institutional entrepreneurship in mature fields: The big five accounting firms AI翻译

  摘要：This study examines change initiated from the center of mature organizational fields. As such, it addresses the paradox of embedded agency-that is, the paradox of how actors enact changes to the context by which they, as actors, are shaped. The change examined is the introduction of a new organizational form. Combining network location theory and dialectical theory, we identify four dynamics that form a process model of elite institutional entrepreneurship.

  摘要：Most turnover research positions employee turnover as the dependent variable and focuses on identifying its antecedents. In this study, we viewed turnover as a key predictor in determining unit-level performance. Specifically, a structural model was developed and tested that links managerial and employee turnover with performance through efficiency. We tested the model using a sample of 262 BURGER KING (R) restaurants. Results demonstrate that efficiency, measured as customer wait time, mediat...
• Boundary spanners' identification, intergroup contact, and effective intergroup relations AI翻译

  摘要：We examined the relationship between group boundary spanners' work group identification and effective (i.e., harmonious and productive) intergroup relations in 53 work groups in five health care organizations. The data suggest this relationship was moderated by boundary spanners' levels of organizational identification, thus supporting a dual identity model. Limited support was found for the moderating effect of intergroup contact. Finally, if boundary spanners displayed frequent intergroup co...
• Expertness diversity and interpersonal helping in teams: Why those who need the most help end up getting the least AI翻译

  摘要：This article develops and tests a multilevel theory of the intragroup dynamics and performance outcomes associated with diversity in levels of member expertise-expertness diversity-in task-oriented teams. Drawing from theories of power and dependence, we argue that in groups where members differ in their perceived expertness, members will be more committed to and more likely to help those seen as more expert, a dynamic that frustrates intragroup learning and compromises group performance. Thes...
• High-involvement management and workforce reduction: Competitive advantage or disadvantage? AI翻译
  作者：Zatzick, Christopher D.; Iverson, Roderick D.
  作者单位：Simon Fraser University
  摘要：Although interest in the workplace trends of downsizing and high-involvement work practices continues to grow, research examining the intersection between them has been limited. In this study, we examine (1) how layoffs moderate the relationship between high-involvement work practices and productivity, and (2) how continued investments in these work practices throughout layoff periods maintain workforce productivity. Findings indicate a negative relationship between high-involvement work pract...
• Knowledge creation through external venturing: Evidence from the telecommunications equipment manufacturing industry AI翻译

  摘要：Investment in entrepreneurial ventures has gained recent popularity as a means for established firms to learn about new technologies and markets. However, the link between such corporate venture capital (CVC) investments and innovation outcomes has not been examined in detail. Using panel data from corporate investors in telecommunications equipment manufacturing, we investigated the conditions under which CVC investments affect knowledge creation for corporate investors. We found that, when i...
• Do CEO stock options prevent or promote fraudulent financial reporting? AI翻译

  摘要：We contrast the conventional view that CEO stock options aid corporate governance by reducing moral hazard with the proposal that CEO stock options may subvert sound corporate governance. Views were tested in 65 matched pairs of public U.S. firms that either had or had not been discovered misreporting financial results. Our results support both the traditional perspective and our unprincipled agent view: in our sample, large CEO stock option grants were sometimes associated with a lower incide...

  摘要：Primitive emotional contagion has been proposed to explain why service with a smile predicts encounter satisfaction. We provide a comprehensive test of this mechanism by examining mimicry and mood as mediators in service encounters, contrasting such mediation with a direct path through perceived service quality. Independent coders recorded the strength of employees' and customers' smiles at three points in time during real service encounters, and 173 customers completed postencounter surveys. ...
