摘要:The justice literature has suggested that adhering to justice rules should be self -reinforcing. Yet, the literature on bias suppression (a facet of procedural justice) has indicated that the effects of debiasing initiatives are transient. We aim to explain why sustained bias suppression is intrinsically challenging under the condition of intermit-tent accountability. We theorize that bias suppression with high accountability induces counterfactual thinking and regret and, ultimately, with sub...

摘要:Controlling families of family firms strive to preserve their socioemotional wealth (SEW) through family involvement in company leadership. Prior research points to a potential trade-off of family involvement, as underqualified and underprepared family members' involvement would bring SEW gains at the expense of financial wealth. We examine how controlling families seek to shape this trade-off to be in their favor by systematically appointing family members to board positions favorable for bui...

摘要:Views differ on whether individuals with a calling orientation toward work (i.e., seeing work as personally fulfilling and contributing to a better world) enjoy more favorable objective career outcomes, such as higher income and chance of promotion, versus those with a job orientation (i.e., seeing work as a means to a financial end). We suggest that the impasse is partially due to prior research's exclusive focus on how work orientation affects one's effort and subsequent job performance. Dra...

摘要:While patent litigation is an important appropriability mechanism for protecting firms' proprietary knowledge, through the litigation process, valuable knowledge may unin-tentionally spill over from firms defending their patents to those they accuse of patent infringement. We examine whether such spillover subsequently enhances the innovation of accused firms by analyzing over 3,000 patent litigation cases from 1998 through 2015 in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry. We find that firms accused o...

摘要:How does the appointment of an outside CEO affect the hiring firm's performance? Prior research has reported that outside CEOs tend to underperform compared to inside CEOs, with high performance variance. Extending CEO-centric perspectives, we predict that experiential learning enhances post-succession performance, while negative transfer learning undermines it. We then offer a novel, stakeholder-centric theoretical perspec-tive, conjecturing that stakeholders' negative sentiment toward the CE...

摘要:While the outcomes of brokerage have been extensively investigated, the issue of when and why brokerage structures persist or decay has attracted relatively little research interest. Taking the perspective of the disconnected firms to whom the broker is tied, the alters, we argue that structurally induced inequity in opportunity, or the broker's potential recombination of a larger share of alters' knowledge than vice versa, exerts a destabilizing effect on brokerage persistence. Furthermore, g...

摘要:Research on CEO political ideology has demonstrated the construct's impact on many firm outcomes. Yet, political ideology does not exist in a vacuum; beyond representing a CEO's values, political ideology also affects the CEO's perception of the political environment. It remains unclear how a difference between the national political climate and the CEO's own political ideology might affect strategic decision-making. Applying upper echelons and threat response perspectives, we propose that div...

摘要:We explore the global fossil fuel divestment movement to show how climate activists worked to stigmatize the fossil fuel industry using analogy. In doing so, we develop a model that illustrates how constructing a moral dualism is central to stigmatizing an organizational category. This involves concurrently establishing stigmatizers (ingroup) as morally superior and amplifying the deviancy of the fossil fuel industry (outgroup), both in relation to analogical contexts. Stigmatizers strategical...

摘要:Activists increasingly seek to influence organizations that also espouse support for social movement goals, encouraging the use of collaborative tactics. While there has been grow-ing research on insider activists who import social movement resources, little is known about how internal activism might operate through a coordinated and collaborative approach with external social movement organizations, which we refer to as embedded activism. Likewise, collaborative activists encounter organizati...
