The Two Faces of Knowledge Search: New Solutions and Capability Development
Organization Studies - Tập 34 Số 12 - Trang 1869-1901 - 2013
Esther Tippmann, Vincent Mangematin, Pamela Sharkey Scott
Searching for knowledge to solve non-routine problems allows middle managers not only to design new solutions but also to develop organizational capabilities. We focus on knowledge search to develop our understanding of how individuals engage with organizational knowledge in practice, how they acquire and use knowledge, and the implications for organizational knowledge development.

Building Project Capabilities: From Exploratory to Exploitative Learning
Organization Studies - Tập 25 Số 9 - Trang 1601-1621 - 2004
Tim Brady, Andrew Davies
This paper presents a model of project capability-building consisting of two interacting levels of learning. First, it describes the bottom-up, ‘project-led’ phases of learning that occur when a firm moves into a new technology/market base: an exploratory ‘vanguard project’ phase; a ‘project-to-project’ phase to capture lessons learned; and a ‘project-to-organization’ phase when an organi...... hiện toàn bộ

Dimitris Bourantas, John Anagnostelis, Yiorgos Mantes, Asterios G. Kefalas
Since the publication of In Search of Excellence academicians have rushed to empirically verify the existence or absence of corporate cultures in organizations. This paper reports on a survey of Greek organizational cultures. The study utilizes Handy's conceptual framework published in his Gods of Management. Data for the study were gathered via a questionnaire which was a translation of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Differences Between American and Greek Managers in Giving Up Control
Organization Studies - Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 095-108 - 1991
John F. Veiga, John N. Yanouzas
This study seeks to explain under what conditions managers tend to give up control in decision-making groups and to what extent the impact of these condi tions differs between U.S. and Greek managers. Contrary to expectations, the results show that Greek managers give up control in decision-making groups less frequently than U.S. managers. The results also suggest that U.S. managers have ...... hiện toàn bộ
Individual Perceptions of Organizational Cultures: A Methodological Treatise on Levels of Analysis
Organization Studies - Tập 14 Số 4 - Trang 483-503 - 1993
Geert Hofstede, Michael Harris Bond, Chung‐Leung Luk
Data from a survey study of organizational cultures in 20 organizational units in Denmark and the Netherlands were re-analyzed at the individual level, after elimination of between-unit variance. A factor analysis showed individuals' values to be composed of six dimensions, and individuals' perceptions of their organiza tion's practices of another six dimensions, entirely different from t...... hiện toàn bộ
Climate Change and the Emergence of New Organizational Landscapes
Organization Studies - Tập 33 Số 11 - Trang 1431-1450 - 2012
Bettina Wittneben, Chukwumerije Okereke, Subhabrata Bobby Banerjee, David Levy
There is general agreement across the world that human-made climate change is a serious global problem, although there are still some sceptics who challenge this view. Research in organization studies on the topic is relatively new. Much of this research, however, is instrumental and managerialist in its focus on ‘win-win’ opportunities for business or its treatment of climate change as j...... hiện toàn bộ
The Limits to Specialization: Problem Solving and Coordination in ‘Modular Networks’
Organization Studies - Tập 26 Số 12 - Trang 1885-1907 - 2005
Stefano Brusoni
This paper builds upon current research into the organizational implications of ‘modularity’. Advocates of modularity argue that the ‘invisible hand’ of markets is reaching activities previously controlled through the visible hand of hierarchies. This paper argues that there are cognitive limits to the extent of division of labour: what kinds of problems firms solve, and how they solve th...... hiện toàn bộ
Globalization, Athletic Footwear Commodity Chains and Employment Relations in China
Organization Studies - Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 531-562 - 2001
Stephen J. Frenkel
Globalization has hastened the growth of buyer-driven commodity chains that connect advanced country marketing or retail companies with contractors manufaturing in low-cost, developing countries. Allegations of labour exploitation have been levelled at the global firms for turning a blind eye to their contractors' labour practices. In response, some firms have implemented codes of practic...... hiện toàn bộ
The Value of Intra-organizational Social Capital: How it Fosters Knowledge Transfer, Innovation Performance, and Growth
Organization Studies - Tập 32 Số 2 - Trang 157-185 - 2011
Indre Maurer, Vera Bartsch, Mark Ebers
While most literature promotes a positive impact of social capital on various organizational performance outcomes, empirical results on the social capital—organizational performance link are not conclusive. We propose that one reason for the discordant findings is that research has largely not accounted for the mediating process steps that translate social capital into organizational perf...... hiện toàn bộ
Knowledge, Knowledge Work and Organizations: An Overview and Interpretation
Organization Studies - Tập 16 Số 6 - Trang 1021-1046 - 1995
Frank Blackler
There is current interest in the competitive advantage that knowledge may provide for organizations and in the significance of knowledge workers, organ izational competencies and knowledge-intensive firms. Yet the concept of knowledge is complex and its relevance to organization theory has been insuf ficiently developed. The paper offers a review and critique of current approaches, and ou...... hiện toàn bộ
