摘要：Research Summary Recent technological advancements have enabled more data-driven decision-making across firms. While prior literature highlights the value of using more data, there is less insight on the impact of information speed, particularly how quickly decision-makers can access it. We study how faster information access influences how decision-makers acquire information and make decisions, using data from healthcare. We examine a technology that visually displayed when test results becam...

摘要：Research Summary Is real option theory useful for management research? This topic was hotly debated two decades ago. Real options were said to be inapplicable to management research and to lack conceptual distinctiveness. Whereas responses to the claim about the non-distinctiveness of real options were disparate, the concern about the theory's non-applicability was considered remediable. Such responses left the impression that real options lost the debate, and the use of real options in manage...

摘要：Research Summary Prior research has examined whether individuals earn greater returns in entrepreneurship than in wage work but has paid little attention to gender differences in these returns. Using Swedish employee-employer data from 1990 to 2020, we compare individuals' earnings before and after they transitioned to entrepreneurship. We find that women founders earn less than men, yet this gap is smaller than in wage employment. Additionally, entrepreneurship yields disproportionately great...

摘要：Research Summary: Through both qualitative and quantitative analyses of large-rocket providers' support for small-satellite manufacturers before the emergence of small rockets, we examine how disruptors to an incumbent ecosystem gain support from complementors of the incumbent technology. Our analyses illuminate the incumbent complementors' adjustment costs arising from cospecialization with specific incumbent technology designs and resource dependency on major incumbent technology customers. ...

摘要：Research Summary We examine a significant yet underappreciated effect of IPR implementation: the dissemination after TRIPS implementation of established scientific knowledge from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) into the global scientific system of pharmaceutical development. The staggered implementation of the policy allows identification of increased diffusion of pre-existing LMIC knowledge on global diseases into the global corporate invention pipeline. For neglected diseases, the u...

摘要：Research Summary How can organizations establish collaboration between their established members and a newly hired member? We address this question by studying firms undergoing scaling using a multiple-case study. We find that widely involving the new hire into the established managers' activities backfires. Such extensive involvement is intended to build the same kind of strong, personal relationships with the new hire that the established managers share amongst themselves and, in doing so, e...

摘要：Research SummaryResearch underscores the importance of innovation ecosystems-or the larger group of firms producing components and complements-to the ability of focal firms to create value with an innovation. However, how ecosystems emerge and evolve remains unexplored. In a question-based examination of the solar photovoltaic ecosystem, we observe that ecosystems emerge earlier than predicted through the transfer of ecosystem elements, in a process of re-specialization, and ecosystem roles fr...

摘要：Research SummaryA key strategic challenge is balancing exploration and exploitation. When individuals' exploration activity is guided by problemistic search, should managers encourage high aspirations? Past work has shown that optimal aspiration (the aspiration level that leads to the highest level of performance in the long run) is lower in more turbulent environments. This past work assumes that aspirations are specified as absolute performance, but search is often triggered by performance s...

摘要：Research Summary This study investigates how social class background shapes CEO career outcomes. Extending the shifting standards model to post-appointment evaluation, we theorize that CEOs from lower-class backgrounds face persistently high confirmatory standards, producing asymmetric consequences. When their performance is strong, the high confirmatory standards amplify their success, resulting in higher initial and subsequent compensation compared to their higher-class counterparts. When pe...

摘要：Research Summary Academic spin-off (ASO) performance has been studied in relation to either specific university-level or regional-level characteristics. However, ASOs originate from universities, which are embedded in regional ecosystems. This nested structure can create an attribution problem when either level is studied in isolation. Consequently, the relative importance of these two different levels for ASO performance has remained ambiguous. To address this ambiguity, we rely on multi-leve...
