摘要：The sheer number of organizations adopting an innovation can cause a bandwagon pressure. prompting other organizations to adopt this innovation. Institutional bandwagon pressures occur because nonadopters fear appearing different from many adopters. Competitive bandwagon pressures occur because nonadopters fear below-average performance if many competitors profit from adopting. Our mathematical model of bandwagons examines how organizational collectivities' characteristics determine (a) whethe...

摘要：Drawing on the work of Michel Foucault, I argue that human resource management (HRM) may be best understood as a discourse and set of practices that attempt to reduce the indeterminacy involved in the employment contract. Here I reread HRM practices from a Foucauldian power-knowledge perspective and suggest that this provides an avenue to reorient contemporary, historical, and comparative analyses of the area.

We first clarify the value of understanding issue selling at the individual and organizational levels and from both symbolic and instrume...

The theory integrates resource allocation. sense making, organizational learning, and strategic positioning in a unified framework, and it provides a new explanation for some counter...

摘要：This article argues that over time the world views, goals, strategies, cultures, and processes of successful organizations will become more pure or ''simple'': They will come to focus more narrowly on a single theme, activity, or issue at the expense of all others. This is explained by managerial, cultural, structural. and process factors within the organization. It is also attributed to both the complementary way in which these factors configure and the paradox that although simplicity may tr...

摘要：Based on a review of previous theoretical and empirical research on environmental measurement, we develop a framework to explain both causes and consequences of divergence between archival and perceptual measures of the environment. Through this framework, we identify two central factors that account for this divergence: level of analysis and mediating filters. Research implications of this divergence between archival and perceptual characterizations are presented. Theoretical and methodologic...
