摘要：An increasing amount of high-quality research has been conducted in the past decade on the topic of managing organizations in the natural environment. We trace this evolution using path and challenge metaphors, indicating our belief that this research, including the nine articles in this special research forum, exhibits an increasing comprehensiveness and sophistication in the field. In addition, we set out our suggestions for continuing the evolution of both research and practice that address...

摘要：This study of the international partner selection of firms from emerging (Mexico, Poland, and Romania) and developed (Canada, France, and the United States) markets supports resource-based and organizational learning explanations of such partner selection, a critical factor for success with international strategic alliances. Emerging market firms emphasized financial assets, technical capabilities, intangible assets, and willingness to share expertise in selection of partners more than develop...

摘要：This article contributes to the theory of collaboration in social settings and is based on data collected during action research interventions in a number of public and community interorganizational collaborations. We conceptualize leadership in collaborations as stemming from three leadership media-structures, processes, and participants-and argue that none of these is wholly within the control of the members of a collaboration. Leadership activities that participants undertake in order to mo...

摘要：An organization's choice of a branch location can be analyzed as a market niche entry decision. This study builds theory on how an organization's decision makers evaluate market niches on the basis of competitive environment, learning from others, the organization's own experience, and proactive strategy, and it tests the theory with data on branch entry decisions of early Tokyo banks. Analysis of how decisions were affected by density dependence, mimetic isomorphism, decision-making momentum,...

摘要：The Organisation for Economic Go-operation and Development predicts that the internationalization of businesses will accelerate in the 21st century. Our study examined how the risks of accelerated internationalization may be managed in 212 foreign market entries by 87 new ventures based in the United States. Findings suggested that ventures managed strategic international risks by exploiting simultaneous trade-offs among foreign revenue exposure, country risk, and entry made commitment in each...

摘要：Current conceptualizations of procedural justice focus largely on the individual level of analysis; no framework exists for examining procedural justice's social context. Empirical tests reported here offer some support for group-level and cross-level hypotheses. Work group perceptions of cohesion and supervisor visibility in demonstrating procedural justice were associated with the development of procedural justice climate. Procedural justice climate was positively associated with helping beh...

摘要：This study jointly examines the effects of organizational capabilities and public and private expropriation hazards on the level of equity ownership chosen for foreign subsidiaries in emerging markets. Specifically, we explore the mechanisms by which 680 Japanese multinational corporations drew upon capabilities developed via industry-specific, country-specific, and total international experience to mitigate these hazards for their 2,827 subsidiaries in 18 emerging markets. Results strongly su...

摘要：This study of entry into Central and Eastern Europe via acquisition of privatized firms combines a traditional merger approach with consideration of host governments as critical stakeholders and the country-specific risks of foreign direct investment in formerly Communist countries. We analyzed survey data on 170 privatization acquisitions by Western firms. The results provide insights into critical managerial issues for acquisitions in transitional economies, especially the importance attache...

摘要：We investigated the individual and contextual influences shaping the environmental ethical decision intentions of a sample of managers in the U.S. metal-finishing industry in this study. Ajzen's (1991) theory of planned behavior and Jones's (1991) moral intensity construct grounded our theoretical framework. Findings revealed that the magnitude of consequences, a dimension of moral intensity, moderated the relationships between each of five antecedents-attitudes, subjective norms, and three pe...

摘要：We studied the reactions to an early retirement program of 668 employees of a large organization who were ineligible for the program. Specifically, we examined the influence of perceptions of the generosity of the organization's assistance to retirees (caretaking) on the remaining employees' intentions to quit. Findings contrasted with those from research on layoff survivors: perceptions of overly generous caretaking were associated with increased intentions to quit, particularly among more te...
