  摘要：We analyze how communications networks and social institutions influenced the growth of the antislavery movement in the U. S. from 1790 to 1840. Communications networks fueled by print media transmitted news about the movement to the public and so helped mobilize a broad base of support. Among social institutions, churches were especially supportive because their emphasis on morality and community was conducive to antislavery activism. Our analysis focuses on the founding of antislavery societ...

• Flow in knowledge work-high performance experience in the design of national security technology AI翻译
  作者：Quinn, RW
  作者单位：University of Virginia
  摘要：Knowledge work, which consists of goal-oriented activities that require high levels of competency to complete, comprises a large and increasing amount of work in modern organizations. Because knowledge work seldom has single correct results or methods or complet on, externally specified, quantified measures of performance may not always be the most appropriate means for managing the performance of knowledge workers. Two competing models of flow, a type of subjective performance, are proposed a...
• Strategy as vector and the inertia of coevolutionary lock-in AI翻译
  作者：Burgelman, RA
  作者单位：Stanford University
  摘要：To examine the consequences of a period of extraordinary success for the long-term adaptive capability of a firm's strategy-making process, this comparative longitudinal study of Andy Grove's tenure as Intel Corporation's chief executive officer (CEO) documents how he moved Intel's strategy-making process from an internal-ecology model to the classical rational-actor model during 1987-1998. His creation of a highly successful strategy vector pursued through an extremely focused induced-strateg...
• Second-order imitation: Uncovering latent effects of board network ties AI翻译

  摘要：This study examines whether board interlock ties facilitate second-order imitation, in which firms imitate an underlying decision process that can be adapted to multiple policy domains, rather than imitating specific policies of tied-to firms (first-order imitation). Longitudinal analyses of archival data for a large sample of Forbes/Fortune 500 companies, as well as analyses of survey data on mimetic processes among these firms, show that network ties to firms that use imitation to determine ...
• Getting to know your: The influence of personality on impressions and performance of demographically different people in organizations AI翻译

  摘要：This paper extends social categorization theory to understand how personality traits related to information sharing may correspond with positive perceptions of demographically different people, thereby enhancing their experience and performance in organizations. We tested our hypotheses in a sample of MBA candidates and a sample of financial services firm officers and found that people who were more demographically different from their coworkers engendered more negative impressions than did mo...
• Challengers, elites, and owning families: A social class theory of corporate acquisitions in the 1960s AI翻译
  作者：Palmer, D; Barber, BM

  摘要：This paper analyzes data on 461 large U.S. industrial corporations to determine the factors that led large firms to participate in the wave of diversifying acquisitions that peaked in the late 1960s. We elaborate and test a class theory of corporate acquisitions, maintaining that firms pursued acquisitions in this period when they were commanded by well-networked challengers who were central in elite social networks but relatively marginal with respect to social status, isolated from the resis...
• A LONGITUDINAL-STUDY OF BORROWING BY LARGE AMERICAN CORPORATIONS AI翻译
  作者：MIZRUCHI, MS; STEARNS, LB
  作者单位：University of California System; University of California Riverside
  摘要：Using models drawn from organizational theory and institutional economics, this paper examines the extent to which firms borrow money. We argue that corporate borrowing depends on four factors: the expected return on borrowing, the availability of internal funds, the strategic orientation of the chief executive officer, and the firm's board composition. We formulate four hypotheses, which we test with data on 22 large U.S. manufacturing firms from 1956 through 1983. Retained earnings, the expe...
