摘要:Research has pointed to the importance of interpersonal relationships in the meaningfulness of work, but significant and under-examined issues remain. For example, what types of relationships have the potential to produce a sense of meaningfulness of work? Further, through what mechanisms do these relationship features affect meaningfulness of work? To answer these questions, we adopt a social networks theory lens to explore how the content and structure of an individual's network ties can inf...

摘要:The role of complementary assets across the different stages of a firm's value chain in facilitating value creation and value appropriation from technological innovation remains a key area of interest in strategy and entrepreneurship research. However, current thinking on complementary assets operates with an unstated boundary condition-that relevant assets and asset configurations are relatively well known to the innovating firm. This assumption is applicable under conditions of risk, wherein...

摘要:The dynamic capabilities framework has been used to explain how firms successfully adapt to changing environments. However, tensions exist in the literature surrounding the idiosyncratic, tacit, and, hence, inimitable nature of dynamic capabilities. Scholars struggle to explain in cognitivist terms how such firm capabilities are acquired in the first instance. In this article we argue that a firm's dynamic capabilities rest on a tacitly shared substrate of sensitivities and predispositions tha...

摘要:Creative work is a social process that requires effective collaboration between individuals. Accordingly, theories account for the ways creativity takes place in teams and groups and the role that social networks play in shaping creativity. However, scholars have largely overlooked the role that dyads play in creative work within organizations. This article builds theory on how intimate co-creation occurs and how it influences the generation of creative ideas over time. I theorize that as peop...

摘要:Despite the longstanding recognition of the importance of uncertainty in strategy, strategy researchers have given limited attention to the distinct challenges and processes involved in strategy making under uncertainty. To address this gap, we build on Knight's and Shackle's seminal ideas about how strategists address the incomplete knowledge problems that uncertainty poses. We argue that strategists adopt two distinct strategic postures when crafting strategies in uncertain markets-shaping a...

摘要:Top management teams (TMTs) and boards of directors (boards) face increasingly turbulent environments as they strategically lead firms toward superior firm performance. The dominant theoretical lens about these two groups is agency theory, which focuses on the need for independence. We suggest that the environment in which the TMT and board govern is broader than conceptualized by agency theory, and thus theories regarding strategic leadership also require expansion. Drawing from the multiteam...
