• Constructing opportunities for contribution: Structuring intertextual coherence and ''problematizing'' in organizational studies AI翻译
  作者：Locke, K; GoldenBiddle, K

  摘要：Examining a sample of journal articles, we develop a grounded theory of contribution that shows how organization studies theorists textually construct opportunities for making contributions to the field. The analyses reveal two major processes and the associated rhetorical practices that texts invoke in establishing opportunities for contribution. The study's findings point to the richness of contribution by illuminating how uniqueness claims are textually produced and legitimated in the conte...

  摘要：This article describes four approaches to the employee-organization relationship, as defined from the employer's perspective. An empirical study of employees from ten companies found support for the basic hypothesis that employee responses differ under the four types of relationship. In general, employees performed better on core tasks, demonstrated more citizenship behavior, and expressed a higher level of affective commitment to an employer when they worked in an overinvestment (by the emplo...
• The effects of partner and relationship characteristics on alliance outcomes AI翻译
  作者：Saxton, T
  摘要：Theories of alliance behavior and outcomes have tended to emphasize either partner or relationship characteristics. This study integrates the two perspectives and examines their separate and combined effects on alliance outcomes. The research involved analysis of 98 alliances through a two-stage survey design. Findings support a positive relationship between partner firms' benefits hom alliance participation and partner reputation, shared decision making, and strategic similarities between par...
• A longitudinal disaggregation of operational risk under changing regulations: Evidence from the savings and loan industry AI翻译

  摘要：The reported research examines the relative contributions of prospect and agency theory explanations for specific operational risks and subsequent firm performance in regulated and unregulated environments. Specifically, this study simultaneously models competing theoretical explanations for risk using three distinct realized operational risks managed by savings and loan (S&L) firms. It then examines the effects of these risks on performance. Implications of this study argue for a mesotheoreti...
• Disaggregating the agency contract: Effects of monitoring, incentive alignment, and term in office on agent decision making AI翻译

  摘要：Using a laboratory design, we examined the simple and interactive effects of monitoring and incentive alignment on managerial decisions. Length of term in office was a third independent variable. Results show that incentive alignment was a more powerful mechanism than monitoring for ensuring that agents acted in the interests of owners, An interaction of monitoring, incentive alignment, and term in office revealed that these effects are relatively complicated and deserve further study, Also, i...
• Effects of trust and governance on relational risk AI翻译

  摘要：In transaction cost economics, foist has been treated as redundant or even misleading. This study tested the effects of governance and trust the risk perceived by agents of firms in alliances. Two dimensions of relational risk were assessed: the probability that something will go wrong and the size of the loss incurred when it does. Hypotheses, tested with survey data on the customer relations of ten suppliers of electrical/electronic components, were well corroborated, with trust-related vari...
• The effect of national culture, organizational complementarity, and economic motivation on joint venture dissolution AI翻译

  摘要：This study examined the effects of partner nationality, organizational dissimilarity, and economic motivation on the dissolution of joint ventures. Event-history analysis was used to test the hypotheses in a sample of 186 ventures. Cultural distance in general did not have an effect on dissolution, but U.S.-Japanese joint ventures lasted longer than U.S.-U.S. joint ventures. Prior relationships between partners appeared to negate some complexities arising from cultural differences. Opportunist...
• Measuring beliefs: Accept no substitutes AI翻译
  作者：Markoczy, L
  摘要：Ever since Hambrick and Mason suggested that external individual characteristics can be used as substitutes for individuals' cognitive bases, management researchers have been using these characteristics as proxies for cognition. However, the actual evidence for a relationship between cognitive bases and individual characteristics is equivocal at best. My study of 91 managers showed a relationship between some of the most cited characteristics and beliefs, but I argue that such a finding does n...
• A resource-based perspective on corporate environmental performance and profitability AI翻译
  作者：Russo, MV; Fouts, PA
  摘要：Drawing on the resource-based view of the firm, we posited that environmental performance and economic performance are positively linked and that industry growth moderates the relationship, with the returns to environmental performance higher ire high-growth industries, We tested these hypotheses with an analysis of 243 firms over two years, using independently developed environmental, ratings. Results indicate that ''it pays to he green'' and that this relationship strengthens with industry g...
• ''That's not my job'': Developing flexible employee work orientations AI翻译
  作者：Parker, SK; Wall, TD; Jackson, PR
  作者单位：University of Sheffield
  摘要：It is widely argued that modern manufacturing settings require employees to adopt a customer-focused strategic orientation and a broad and proactive role orientation. Yet empirical investigation of this issue is lacking. We describe the development of measures of both types of work orientation and present two field studies that examine how these orientations change. Findings suggest that, although the implementation of new production practices can in itself lead to the development of a strateg...
