摘要：To investigate when a firm's reputation affects its exchange partners' responses to adverse events, we distinguish between two types of reputation identified in prior work, capability reputation and character reputation, and present arguments for differences in their effects on exchange with potential and current exchange partners. Building on theory regarding uncertainty in exchange, we propose that potential exchange partners pay more attention to a firm's capability reputation than its char...

摘要：Empirical research examining team development has long lagged behind purely conceptual work. Moreover, traditional designs and logics frequently employed in the organizational sciences generally preclude the possibility of studying the trajectories of various team properties. This is problematic as continuity, nonlinearity, and within-construct feedback are implicit in many eminent conceptualizations of teams. Hence, the present investigation integrates dynamic logic, theory, and methodology f...

摘要：We investigate how activated team faultlines represent an informal sensemaking structure through which teammates interpret their social reality. Constructed from intersubgroup comparisons, activated team faultlines likely result in ambiguous or illegitimate status perceptions. Thus, activated faultlines threaten team justice climate, which drives status conflict, impairing team performance. We explore the effects of team structure clarity in providing certainty or legitimacy around status and ...

摘要：Decisions about conforming to or deviating from conventional practices in a field are an important concern of organization and management theory. The position that actors occupy in the status hierarchy has been shown to be an important determinant of these decisions. The dominant hypothesis, known as middle-status conformity, posits that middle-status actors are more likely to conform to conventional practices than high- and low-status actors do. We challenge this hypothesis by revisiting its ...

摘要：Much research has shown that firms' ego network configurations-i.e., structural holes or network closure-help them achieve superior innovation outcomes. However, little is known about how the stability of the firm's ego-network composition affects the firm's innovation. In this paper, we investigate the outcomes of ego-network stability in an alliance context, arguing that stability actually reduces innovation for the focal firm. We further investigate two contingencies-namely, the structural ...

摘要：This study offers a theory-generating examination of the social construction processes through which members regularly exposed to psychological distress navigate paradoxical demands to both extend and protect the self in their work with others. A qualitative study of a child welfare agency found that members organized themselves to avoid the conscious experience of psychological distress. Distress organizing involved, first, the use of collective avoidance mechanisms that constrained the time,...

摘要：When organizations crowdsource ideas, they select only a small share of the ideas that contributors submit for implementation. If a contributor submits an idea to an organization for the first time (i.e., is a newcomer), and the organization does not select the idea, this may negatively affect the newcomer's relationship with the organization and willingness to submit ideas to the organization in future. We suggest that organizations can increase newcomers' willingness to submit further ideas ...

摘要：Although contracts certainly facilitate exchange, scholars have debated whether contracts and trust are complements or substitutes. Recent theoretical work has suggested that contract frames influence the relationship between contracts and trust. We test and extend this theorizing by examining the effects of prevention and promotion contract frames on trust and some potential cognitive and emotional mechanisms responsible for them. We also explore how unexpected negative events affect trust de...

摘要：Extant research on the antecedents of cultures has posited that cultures result from the internal and external changes experienced by the group (the functionality perspective) and from a group leader's personal values and personality traits (the leader-trait perspective). The current study proposes another important but neglected antecedent of cultures: a leader's past cultural experience. Specifically, we theorize that group leaders enact cultures based on their past cultural experiences, ess...

摘要：Does displaying positive emotions (e.g., joy) during a funding pitch help an entrepreneur gain more financial support? Past research has approached this question mostly by treating emotional displays as static and focusing on the overall or average levels of displayed emotions. However, emotional displays are temporally dynamic and more salient in some moments or phases than others. Drawing from gestalt characteristics and event system theories, we take a dynamic approach to examine the peak m...
