摘要:We draw on a three-year qualitative study of the processual dynamics of implementing a sustainability strategy alongside an existing mainstream competitive strategy. We show that, despite the legitimacy of the sustainability strategy at the organizational level, actors experience tensions with its implementation at the action level vis-a-vis the mainstream strategy, thus creating the potential for decoupling. Our findings show that working through these tensions on specific tasks enables actor...

摘要:This study examines how target corporate social responsibility affects the economic gains for acquirers, as reflected in market reaction to an acquisition announcement, from two distinct perspectives: stakeholder preservation versus stakeholder appropriation. The stakeholder preservation perspective suggests that positive market reaction to an acquisition stems from potential new value creation by honoring implicit contracts and maintaining good relationships with target stakeholders. By contr...

摘要:The contemporary risk society is associated with the emergence of a wide range of risks characterized by uncertainty and unfamiliarity. These novel risks pose a major challenge for organizations: their negative effects may be significant, but prevailing risk-assessment techniques are limited in their ability to identify these effects. Building on our prior work on the chemical bisphenol A (BPA), this study examines how organizations deal with novel risks. It finds that organizations engage in ...

摘要:We examine how political risk influences partner selection in multipartner alliances, and consequently their diversity. We propose a two-stage theoretical model-first, a lead firm is selected to lead the alliance; second, the lead firm selects other partners- and we argue that political risk affects both stages. In the first stage, firms with knowledge of and influence in the project country are selected to lead projects in countries with high political risk. In the second stage, the lead firm...

摘要:Findings from prior studies regarding the relationship between government corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives and firm CSR performance have been mixed. To address this research gap, we developed a dual-agency model incorporating both public agents (government officials) and private agents (corporate CEOs) to investigate when firms respond to government initiatives by increasing their CSR. We tested our model in a sample of 746 Chinese listed firms during the period 2009-2014 when...

摘要:Collaborating across cultures can potentially increase creativity owing to access to diverse ideas and perspectives, but this benefit is not always realized. One reason for this is that the conflict that arises in intercultural creative collaboration is a double-edged sword, and so how it is managed matters. In this research, we examine how the gender of collaborating dyads influences the link between intercultural conflict (task and relationship) and creative collaboration effectiveness. Thro...

摘要:When is a token female's voice incorporated into the actions of a traditionally male-dominated team, and to what ends? Drawing from the tokenism, gender stereotypes, and minority influence literatures, we advance a model that specifies the conditions that facilitate token female voice enactment and when enacting the female's voice enhances team performance. Using a sample of active-duty military men and women, we employed live observation techniques to study voice enactment in all-male teams v...

摘要:Negative feedback alerts recipients to a creativity-standard gap, and thus may offer an opportunity to improve creativity. However, existing theories and empirical evidence are contradictory, with the literature containing evidence of positive, negative, and null relationships between negative feedback and recipient creativity. The goal of our research is twofold: first, to organize the contradictory theories under a comprehensive theoretical framework, and, second, to resolve the inconsistenc...

摘要:The effects of diversity in management teams on firm innovation have become an important topic in strategic management. With a few exceptions, however, the literature has focused on diversity in top management teams (TMTs), while the role of diversity in lower management levels, particularly middle management teams (MMTs), has usually been neglected. In this paper, we intend to fill this gap by explicitly differentiating between the effects of diversity in TMTs and MMTs. By matching various fi...
