Abstract

Abstract For service professionals, work is a central life interest, raising questions about the effectiveness of managerial controls. We examine reactions of professionals (676 physicians) to imposed managerial controls in the form of a time clock. The main contribution of this study is its demonstration that segmenting professionals can help unravel reactions to management controls. All professionals are sensitive to external control measures that threaten their organizational status, but the institutional working context (far more than individual-level employment arrangements or demographics) determines the extent of these reactions.

服务专业人员和管理控制:机构、就业和个人细分
对于服务专业人士来说,工作是他们生活的核心兴趣,这就引发了对管理控制有效性的质疑。我们研究了专业人员(676名医生)对以时钟形式施加的管理控制的反应。这项研究的主要贡献是它证明了细分专业人员可以帮助解开对管理控制的反应。所有专业人员对威胁其组织地位的外部控制措施都很敏感,但机构工作环境(远远超过个人层面的就业安排或人口统计)决定了这些反应的程度。
