摘要:Strategy and innovation scholars have long emphasized the positive role of market demand in driving innovation within a technological domain. This study sheds light on an indirect negative spillover effect of market demand on technological progress: whereas increased downstream market demand within a domain generally drives increased technological progress in that domain (i.e., the demand-relevant domain), it may also adversely affect the technological progress of firms in adjacent domains. Th...

摘要:How well CEOs manage and protect their stakeholders' interests has risen as an important criterion in boards' evaluation of CEOs. Research supports this notion by showing that CEOs who underinvest in corporate social responsibility (CSR) often face bleak job prospects. Therefore, when firms are involved in regulatory sanctions concerning stakeholders' interests, CEOs may face the risk of dismissal, albeit to different degrees because boards may interpret such events in light of their expectati...

摘要:Throughout history, both human-made crises and natural disasters have displaced populations, forcing people to leave their homes. This not only results in lasting scars on those who flee but can also profoundly impact entire societies. Drawing from the fields of organizational studies, migration studies, and psychology, we argue that understanding the long-term effects of refugee migration requires a comprehensive examination of the entire refugee journey. During pre-, mid-, and postmigration ...

摘要:Scholarly attention in the venture funding literature is primarily devoted to tie selection, with a great deal of that attention focused on the perspective of the investor evaluating the entrepreneur as a candidate for funding. But venture funding can be conceptualized as a long-term, dual-sided matching process. Two mixed methods studies offer support for a specific basis of background similarity that can influence entrepreneur evaluations of investor tie potential: shared entrepreneurial exp...

摘要:When an organization's environment changes, communication between its members is essential for a timely response. However, past observational studies suggest that communication declines when an organization is exposed to an adverse environmental event. To understand why this might happen, I examine the effects of competition and scarcity-two common features of adverse events-on information sharing and seeking- the microfoundations of organizational communication. In the present study, interact...

摘要:A robust body of literature examines how star inventors influence their firms' innovation trajectories, but how their departure affects firm innovation outcomes is imprecisely understood. Star departure has two kinds of spillover effects on firms: increased coinventor mobility and reduced coinventor performance. In this study, we aim to understand whether and why these spillover effects may systematically differ between stars. We argue that star search behavior influences the nature of embedde...

摘要:Consumers and other audiences often penalize products that combine unrelated elements. In this paper, we document the consequences of that penalty for the evaluation of the elements being combined. Building on the idea that audiences cannot fully disentangle the quality of fit between elements from the quality of the elements individually, we argue that audiences are likely to direct their dislike of a misfit product to the individual elements being combined. Using an archival study of the mus...

摘要:Despite recent theorizing on the power of rhetorical histories, scholars have yet to consider the dynamics of organizational generations (i.e., collectives defined by temporally proximal organizational entry and shared experiences and memories of organizational events) involved in their creation and long-term effects. Based on a comparative case study of two union organizations that participated in failed initiatives, we produce a parallel process model of cross-generational historical branchi...

摘要:Institutional outsiders have become increasingly common in public administrations, coinciding with a growing prevalence of public crises. Yet we know little about whether and under what conditions leaders with limited political experience perform well or poorly during such crises. Drawing on strategic leadership and institutional change research, we develop competing hypotheses and a contingency framework that explains how public leaders' institutional outsiderness shapes their crisis manageme...

摘要:We investigate how the decline of local newspapers affects firms' corporate social responsibility (CSR) engagement. Historically, local newspapers have shaped firms' informational environments by providing two interconnected functions that influence local stakeholders' perceptions: external monitoring and enhanced visibility of corporate behaviors. Their decline weakens both functions simultaneously, creating uncertainty about how firms adjust behaviors sensitive to scrutiny and public recogni...
