TL;DR: The authors posit that family firms often face a dilemma in their strategic decision-making: whether to maintain current socioemotional wealth or pursue prospective financial wealth, and apply such a mixed gamble perspective to acquisitions, family owners assess potential acquisitions with regard to their impact on both wealth dimensions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that on the basis of their promotion or prevention regulatory focus, employees respond to organizational change communication via job crafting behaviors that further enhance or hinder their adjustment to change (i.e., work engagement and adaptivity).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that competitive action should be considered as an important contingency that determines the effects of CSR activities on firm financial performance and provide a more nuanced view of the relationship between corporate social responsibility and firm performance using a competitive-action perspective.

TL;DR: Design thinking is an approach to problem solving that uses tools traditionally utilized by designers of commercial products, processes, and environments (e.g., designing a new car or the la... as discussed by the authors ).

TL;DR: The most comprehensive review and meta-analysis of the literature on cultural distance and firm internationalization to date finds that firms are less likely to expand to culturally distant locations but if they do, they prefer greenfield investments and integrate subsidiaries more through transfer of management practices.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that job insecurity is one of the most common stressors in contemporary working life and that it has cognitive (i.e., the perceived negative change to...

TL;DR: This article developed a combined agency-resource dependence perspective and applied it to the study of interlocking directorates and found that interlocking departments may exert either a positive or negative effect on subsequent firm performance, depending on the firm's relative resources, power imbalance, ownership concentration, and CEO ownership.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically analyze competition and cooperation and illuminate how the interplay between specific aspects of competition and cooperate manifests through unique co-copetition mechanisms, and explain how effective navigation of simultaneity and value creation intent, two fundamental elements of co-opetition, may be instrumental in deriving beneficial outcomes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the nature of workplace motivation by testing the continuum structure of motivation proposed by self-determination theory through the application of relatively new and advanced methodological techniques and demonstrate the usefulness of the overarching bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling framework in organizational psychology and discuss implications of such models over more traditional confirmatory factor analyses.

TL;DR: In this article, a two-stage field study of 150 leader-follower dyads employing a cross-level polynomial regression analysis supported their expectation-match hypotheses and showed that followers' perceptions of laissez-faire leadership as a mediator subsequently lead to lower leader effectiveness evaluation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors build and test theory that explains how competence-and integrity-based trust have asymmetric effects on different kinds of transaction costs, and they build on theory that describes how parties process positive and negative information about others' behavior to predict that integrity based trust in IORs is more potent for reducing transaction costs than is competence based trust.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored integrative, knowledge-centered team mechanisms through which transformational leadership affects team innovative performance, and they found that transformational leaders promoted within-team knowledge sharing and team innovative performances through an integration mechanism manifest as team cooperative norms.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that although measurement error variance in CATA has not been measured thus far, it does exist and it affects substantive conclusions and has implications for theory and practice, as well as how to assess and minimize measurement error in future CATA research with the goal of improving the accuracy of substantive conclusions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the relationship between both micro (intrinsic and extrinsic motivation) and molar (team climate) variables with manager-rated creativity of R&D employees.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used meta-analysis to assess the strength and consistency of the multiplicative effects of ability and motivation on performance and found that ability was relatively more important to training per...

TL;DR: In this article, a self-consistency theory framework for gossip is presented and tested using supervisor-subordinate dyadic time-lagged data (n = 403), and it is shown that perceived negative workplace gossip adversely influenced target employees' organization-based self-esteem, which, in turn, influenced their citizenship behavior directed at the organization and at its members.

TL;DR: It has become common practice to refer to personality traits as being either bright or dark, and a wealth of research has provided support for the effects of both bright traits and dark traits in people as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose an agency model for multinational organizations with headquarters as the principal and subsidiary as the agent, and explain subsidiary level variation through a set of internal organizational and external social conditions in which the headquarters-subsidiary agency dyad is embedded.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the prevalence of and consequences associated with mental illness in the workplace, which is both critical and timely for researchers and practitioners in the field of mental health.

TL;DR: Training engagement theory as discussed by the authors proposes a sequence model of the independent and joint effects of establishing training goals, prioritizing those goals, and persisting during goal striving on training effectivenes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the Fraud Triangle, a framework drawn from the accounting literature, to derive conclusions about what we know about the pressures faced by CEOs, the opportunities afforded to CEOs to commit wrongdoing, and contributing factors to a CEO's ability to rationalize misbehavior.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors draw on social dominance theory to hypothesize and demonstrate that subordinate performance can have a positive, indirect effect on abusive supervision through the mediator of perceived threat to hierarchy.
