摘要：Meritocracy is widely believed to be a fair system. Although extant literature focuses on managers' implementation of meritocratic decisions, less attention has been paid to jobseekers' responses to meritocratic opportunities. This study addresses this gap by examining how aspiring software developers without computer science (CS) degrees respond to the ostensibly meritocratic promise of entering tech through open-access coding skills. Drawing on interview, social media, and ethnographic data,...

摘要：To realize complementary value in ecosystems, organizations engage in architectural learning, which involves searching for interdependencies and specifying interactions with external complements. In this article, we explore how this process differs when potential complements are not yet fully interoperable and complementarity is emergent. We report on a longitudinal case study of a 3D printer company that shifted from producing inexpensive personal desktop 3D printers to the professional 3D pr...

摘要：In response to persistent gender inequality in corporate leadership, many countries have implemented board gender diversity reforms, either through legislation or by revising governance codes for board appointments. Whereas these reforms aim to enhance women's representation and influence in leadership roles, their effects on corporate outcomes, such as innovation, remain unclear. This study develops a two-mechanism institutional contingency model to investigate how board gender diversity refo...

摘要：Corporate political activity (CPA) research often focuses on single-government interactions, overlooking the complexities of distributed government authority. Drawing from contracting literature, our study explores the implications of distributed government authority for firm outcomes in the CPA arena. Specifically, we investigate how different types of contractual arrangements with resource-granting agencies-fixed-price contracts (which allocate risk to firms) versus cost-plus contracts (whic...

摘要：How do startups influence the neighborhoods in which they locate? Using data from the Greater London area, we find a positive association between growth-oriented entrepreneurship and both demographic and organizational changes in these communities. Older, less educated residents are replaced by younger, more educated ones. Restaurants become more expensive and more diverse. We also demonstrate that growth-oriented entrepreneurship predicts a subsequent rise in residential real estate prices. T...

摘要：Secrecy is critical for knowledge protection during innovation, but it can hinder knowledge creation. Despite considerable research into when and why organizations employ secrecy, our understanding of how secrecy is managed during the research and development (R&D) process remains limited. I examine how secrecy emerges, manifests, and evolves across the R&D process through a historical case study of the making of the atomic bomb in the United States during World War II. I uncover a model of ad...

摘要：This research develops a theory of team adaptation to disruptive events (the extent to which an event transforms usual activities). Our theory is based on a comprehensive investigation of firefighting teams, documenting how disruptive team task changes (i.e., disruptive events) create a lack of correspondence between what team members expect to happen (preexisting task mental models or TMMs) and what is happening in the situation (emergent team situation mental models or TSMs) and the reaction...

摘要：Employers in online labor marketplaces prefer women over men because of stereotypes that women are more trustworthy. These stereotypes are especially salient in this context because of the uncertainty in online transactions. Yet, employers' interactions with women and men workers might moderate the influence of trustworthiness stereotypes and, by extension, employers' hiring preferences for individual women and men as well as gender categories in general. By exploiting rare access to large-sca...

摘要：Extant research finds that workers often develop negative or ambivalent perceptions of organizational monitoring and thus engage in acts of resistance. However, this work largely assumes that organizational monitoring occurs in isolation, overlooking how the growing presence of external monitoring may fundamentally alter how workers experience organizational monitoring. To investigate this dynamic, we conducted a qualitative study of a U.S. police department where officers faced both organizat...

摘要：Do women benefit more from gender-homophilous (all-women) or genderheterophilous (mixed-gender) groups in remote training? Existing theories offer no clear answer, as remote training environments disrupt the social architecture that enables peer effects-weakening not only the collaborative structures that encourage cross-gender exchange but also the interpersonal cues that foster same-gender bonding. We argue that remote training environments reveal a key mechanism through which all-women peer...
