摘要:To hedge unforeseen risk, investors may prioritize male-led ventures that they anticipate most other investors will prefer, arriving at decisions that are biased against women. Yet, little is known about how investors infer such gendered preferences and when they are particularly likely to do so. Integrating insights from third-party bias research with social role theory, we posit that when women propose novel ventures, investors are more apt to make unpromising social approval forecasting-an ...

摘要:Problemistic search literature has long sought to understand which responses firms adopt when addressing performance shortfalls. Studies have typically considered certain responses and focused on established decision rules to examine search directions, thereby, implicitly assuming that all responses considered are workable solutions to performance shortfalls. Conversely, we argue that variations in decision -makers' beliefs about the effectiveness of particular responses in improving firm perf...

摘要:This study proposes that CEO attentional vigilance, defined as maintaining a consistentlevel of attention over time, can contribute to a firm's pursuit of exploration. Using datafrom new product introductions in the software industry, along with a text-based mea-sure of attentional vigilance derived from earnings conference calls, I find that CEOattentional vigilance to exploration has a positive effect on the firm's rate of exploration.Additionally, I observe that this positive impact is more...

摘要:The success of diversity initiatives depends on the support of those in positions of structural power-that is, managers. However, managers often resist such initiatives. Existing academic and practitioner conversations point to managers' demographics or ideology as the source of resistance to diversity initiatives. We propose that such resistance may originate from the managerial position itself. We argue that positions of structural power induce organizational identification, which motivates ...

摘要:Identifying executives' industry affiliation with categorical membership, this study examines how moving to a different industry impacts mobility-compensation outcomes. On the demand side, we propose that audience ambiguity and commitment concerns regarding cross-category moves limit the potential compensation of industry-changing executives. On the supply side, we argue that executives might accept smaller monetary rewards in exchange for acquiring experience in a new domain. Since category s...

摘要:In this article, we advance a novel intra-individual conflict cognitive process framework, highlighting two structural elements of conflict experiences: (1) directions (sending vs. receiving) and (2) team boundaries (within team vs. between team). Integrating theorizing on cognitive resource allocation, we explain how and why the effect of individuals' conflict experiences on their task performances hinges upon their self -regulation of attention processes guided by the structural elements of ...

摘要:To examine board members' influence in strategic decision-making, we consider the roleof emotion displays during board meetings. We build a grounded model of how boardmembers influence strategic decisions, which can occur directly from one director to atop manager or indirectly from one board member through the rest of the board. Drawingfrom the literature on nonverbal communication, we theorize that displays of anger andhappiness by board members increase their focused or diffuse influence, r...

摘要:We develop and test theory regarding the effect of CEO paranoia, defined as stable tendencies toward suspicion, feelings of ill will or resentment, mistrust, and belief in external control or influence, on firm stakeholder engagement. We theorize that because CEOs higher in paranoia have tendencies toward hypervigilance and the biases of self-as-target and sinister attributions they typically avoid engagement with external stakeholders. Further, we argue that CEOs higher in paranoia are subjec...

摘要:Scandals are momentous events with far-reaching consequences for organizations and society, but we still know relatively little about the contextual conditions that enable them. In this paper, we develop and test a theory of the publicization of organizational misconduct-that is, of how an act of wrongdoing by an organization becomes widely publicized, thereby giving rise to a scandal; or receives little coverage, with little or no consequence for the offending organization. We argue that comm...
