The current article argues that taking subjective theories of both the rater and ratee into consideration contributes to a deeper understanding of leadership evaluations. In the present study, individuals’ pre-existing implicit personality theory (Dweck, 1996) was measured in an organizational setting and was identified as a moderating variable for leadership assessments (108 participants). It ...

In this paper we report a case study on how firms realize the business value of CRM by developing CRM-enabled ambidexterity to simultaneously pursue stability and develop adaptability. Results show that as the focal firm used CRM as a platform for standardizing operations and building routines, the top management team (TMT) and the operation team worked together to reflexively monitor the statu...

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical for all aspects of vascular biology. In concert with supporting cells, endothelial cells (ECs) assemble a laminin-rich basement membrane matrix that provides structural and organizational stability. During the onset of angiogenesis, this basement membrane matrix is degraded by proteinases, among which membrane-type matrix metalloproteinases (MT-MMPs) a...

Many real-life problems involve the matching of talented individuals to institutions such as firms, hospitals, or schools, where these institutions are simply treated as individual agents. In this paper, I study many-to-one matching with contracts that incorporates a theory of choice of institutions, which are aggregate actors, composed of divisions that are enjoined by an institutional governa...

Egalitarianism and meritocracy are competing principles to distribute the joint bene…ts of cooperation. We examine the consequences of letting members of society vote between those two principles, in a context where groups of a certain size must be formed in order for individuals to become productive. Our setup induces a hedonic game of coalition formation. We study the existence of core stable...

In this paper numerical results are reviewed ([13]) that demonstrate that common second-order operator-splitting methods can exhibit instabilities when integrating the Brusselator equations out to moderate times of about seven periods of oscillation. These instabilities are manifested as high wave number spatial errors. In this paper we further analyze this problem and present a theorem for sta...

Leaders are under constant pressure from a rapidly changing environment, organizational transformation, the need to manage multiple boundaries, the irrational demands of staff, and their own psychology. To function in role, encourage a sense of community and authorize staff competence, CEO values and vulnerabilities must be visible to the staff. In order to respond to feelings as information, l...
