  摘要：Little empirical work has been done on the effect of stakeholder management on corporate performance. In this study, we contributed to stakeholder theory development by (1) deriving two distinct stakeholder management models from extant research, (2) testing the descriptive accuracy of these models, and (3) including important variables from the strategy literature in the tested models. The results provide support for a strategic stakeholder management model but no support for an intrinsic sta...
• Institutional evolution and change: Environmentalism and the US chemical industry AI翻译
  作者：Hoffman, AJ
  作者单位：Boston University
  摘要：This study measured changes in the constituency of an organizational field centered around the issue of corporate environmentalism in the period 1960-93, correlating those changes with the institutions adopted by the U.S. chemical industry to interpret the issue. The article develops the ideas that fields form around issues, not markets or technologies; within fields, competing institutions may simultaneously exist; as institutions evolve, connections between their regulative, normative, and c...
• Beyond self-management: Antecedents and consequences of team empowerment AI翻译

  摘要：We examined the antecedents, consequences, and mediational role of team empowerment using 111 work teams in four organizations. The results indicated that the actions of external leaders, the production/service responsibilities given to teams, team-based human resources policies, and the social structure of teams all worked to enhance employee team empowerment experiences. More empowered teams were also more productive and proactive than less empowered teams and had higher levels of customer s...
• Corporate ethics programs as control systems: Influences of executive commitment and environmental factors AI翻译

  摘要：Our study asked why corporations introduce formal programs to manage ethics and why those programs display varying characteristics. We used control theory to delineate an ethics program's scope and its orientation toward compliance- and values-based control. Managerial choice theory suggests that environmental factors and management's ethical commitment will influence these dimensions. Environmental factors were the stronger influences on scope, but management commitment was the stronger deter...
• Stakeholders, social responsibility, and performance: Empirical evidence and theoretical perspectives AI翻译
  作者：Harrison, JS; Freeman, RE
  作者单位：State University System of Florida; University of Central Florida; University of Virginia
  摘要：The management of competing stakeholder interests has emerged as a significant topic in the management literature. Related issues are the relationship between stakeholder management and the perception that a firm is socially responsible, and the performance implications of both stakeholder management and social responsibility. Theory and models surrounding these issues are abundant, but empirical research is in an early stage. This research forum reports six excellent efforts to-tackle fundame...
• The performance effects of pay dispersion on individuals and organizations AI翻译
  作者：Bloom, M
  作者单位：University of Notre Dame
  摘要：Pay distribution research is relatively scarce in the compensation literature, yet pay distributions are viewed as critically important by organizational decision makers. This study is a direct test of the relationship between one form of pay distribution-pay dispersion-and performance conducted in a field setting where individual and organizational performance could be reliably observed and measured. Findings suggest more compressed pay dispersions are positively related to multiple measures ...
• Making use of difference: Diversity, debate, and decision comprehensiveness in top management teams AI翻译
  作者：Simons, T; Pelled, LH; Smith, KA
  作者单位：Cornell University; University of Southern California; Syracuse University
  摘要：This study examined how top management team diversity variables and debate interacted to influence two measures of company financial performance. Further, it assessed the degree to which decision comprehensiveness mediated those interaction effects. Multi-informant data from the top management teams of 57 manufacturing companies revealed that more job-related types of diversity interacted with debate to influence financial performance, but a less job-related type (age diversity) did not. Decis...
• Chance, imitative, and strategic antecedents to multimarket contact AI翻译
  作者：Korn, HJ; Baum, JAC

  摘要：We redirect research attention on multimarket contact from its consequences to its antecedents. Our empirical examination of the evolution of dyadic multimarket contacts among California commuter airlines from 1979 through 1984 reveals that multimarket contact arises from chance market contacts among competitors pursuing uncoordinated strategies, trait-based imitation unrelated to multimarket contact, vicarious learning related to multimarket contact, and strategic attempts to develop multimar...
• Integrated and decoupled corporate social performance: Management commitments, external pressures, and corporate ethics practices AI翻译
  作者：Weaver, GR; Treviño, LK; Cochran, PL
  作者单位：University of Delaware; Pennsylvania Commonwealth System of Higher Education (PCSHE); Pennsylvania State University; Pennsylvania State University - University Park
  摘要：Corporations can respond to expectations for socially responsible processes and outcomes in organizationally integrated ways or in easily decoupled fashion. This study focused on a particular type of socially responsible organizational process: formal corporate ethics programs. Theory suggests that external pressures for social performance encourage easily decoupled processes but that top management commitments can encourage both easily decoupled and integrated processes. Analysis of survey an...
• Beyond direct and symmetrical effects: The influence of demographic dissimilarity on organizational citizenship behavior AI翻译
  作者：Chattopadhyay, P
  作者单位：University of Queensland
  摘要：It is argued that employees' attraction to and trust in their peers, and their organization-based self-esteem mediate the effect of demographic dissimilarity on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Data from a held study support a model in which the relationship between demographic dissimilarity and OCB is contingent on demographic characteristics and work group composition and mediated to an extent by the proposed mediators. The influence of race dissimilarity varied in strength for whi...
