Recent developments in information and communication technology have led to renewed interest in the impact of flexible work on work-related outcomes such as job satisfaction, organizational identification and work engagement. Although there is a vast amount of literature indicating the positive association between job autonomy and work-related outcomes, there has been little discussion about the contextual conditions that strengthen this relationship. This paper analyzes the role of perceived organizational alignment as a conditional factor and shows that autonomy alone cannot explain an organization’s success in improving work-related outcomes. An analysis of online survey from 481 employees shows that the perceived organizational alignment moderates the positive effect of autonomy on work-related outcomes in the context of flexible work. For employees who perceive organizational alignment to be high, the positive relationships are strengthened for work engagement and organizational identification, but attenuated for job satisfaction. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.
信息和通信技术的最新发展使人们重新关注灵活工作对工作成果的影响,如工作满意度、组织认同和工作投入。尽管有大量的文献表明工作自主性和工作成果之间存在正相关关系,但关于加强这种关系的背景条件的讨论却很少。本文分析了感知组织一致性作为一个条件因素的作用,并表明自主本身不能解释组织在改善工作相关结果方面的成功。一项对481名员工的在线调查分析表明,在灵活工作环境下,组织一致性的感知调节了自主性对工作成果的积极影响。对于那些认为组织一致性高的员工,积极关系在工作投入和组织认同方面得到加强,但在工作满意度方面减弱。讨论了这些发现的理论和实践意义。

Corporate Responsibility: In the Dilemma between Fake and Trust? 企业责任:虚假与信任的两难抉择?

The accusation of whitewashing accompanied the discussion about corporate social responsibility (CSR) since its inception the 1950s. That's not surprising. Ever since its beginnings in Scottish moral philosophy, economics did not expect the general good to be enhanced by the individual's social orientation, but rather by its self-interest, a concept less liable to disappointment, and the work of the invisible hand (Hirschman, 1977). The latter aims to promote a common goal that individuals have not intended. Following his famous text, Adam Smith (2007 [1786], p. 350) continues: ‘I have never known much good done by those who affected to trade for the public good.’ The ‘mistrust’ of the ‘goodwill’ of the capitalist lives on in various streams such as Marxism, (neo-)liberalism or sociological system theory, to name but a few schools of thought. Marxists do not expect societal progress any more than (neo-)liberals from benevolent capitalists who, demand more taxable profits, instead of social responsibility, in the framework of the market organization of companies. System theorists find that ethical demands are hardly transferable directly into the economy code of payment/non-payment. Although Adam Smith (2007 [1786], p. 350) shared the view that the claim of public good orientation is ‘indeed, not very common among merchants’, but that ‘very few words need to be employed in dissuading them from it.’
对“洗白”的指责自上世纪50年代企业社会责任(CSR)诞生以来就一直伴随着它的讨论。这并不奇怪。自苏格兰道德哲学开始以来,经济学并不指望通过个人的社会取向来提高总体利益,而是通过其自身利益来提高总体利益,这是一个不易令人失望的概念,也是看不见的手的作用(赫希曼,1977)。后者的目的是促进一个共同的目标,个人并没有打算。亚当·斯密(Adam Smith, 2007[1786],第350页)在他的著名著作之后继续写道:“我从未听说过那些假装为公众利益而进行贸易的人做了多少好事。对资本主义“善意”的“不信任”存在于各种流派中,如马克思主义、(新)自由主义或社会学系统理论,仅举几家思想流派的例子。马克思主义者并不比仁慈的资本家(新)自由主义者更期待社会进步,后者在公司的市场组织框架内要求更多的应税利润,而不是社会责任。系统理论家发现,道德要求很难直接转化为支付/不支付的经济准则。虽然亚当·斯密(2007[1786],第350页)也认为,公共利益导向的主张“确实,在商人中并不常见”,但“很少需要用言语来劝阻他们”。

This study explores the relevance of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the context of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The role of CSR in SMEs has so far been scarcely researched, and the relationship between internationalisation and CSR development in SMEs, in particular, could do with the further study. Since it has been found that organisational capabilities and CSR both impact SME performance, we illustrate these relationships and differentiate between the domestic and internationalised SMEs. The empirical part of the study is based on the survey data from a sample of 141 Finnish SMEs. Results obtained via linear regression modelling show that network competence plays a part in contributing to CSR, which in turn positively affects the SME’s competitive performance, but only in internationalised SMEs. CSR is found to mediate the relationship between network competence and competitive performance. The study thus contributes both to the literature on CSR as well as that on SME internationalisation and argues for the importance of the former as a true predictor of enhanced SME competitiveness.
本研究探讨了中小企业背景下企业社会责任(CSR)的相关性。迄今为止,关于企业社会责任在中小企业中的作用的研究很少,特别是国际化与中小企业社会责任发展之间的关系值得进一步研究。由于已经发现组织能力和企业社会责任都影响中小企业绩效,我们说明了这些关系,并区分了国内和国际化的中小企业。研究的实证部分基于141家芬兰中小企业样本的调查数据。通过线性回归模型得到的结果表明,网络能力对企业社会责任有一定的贡献,这反过来又对中小企业的竞争绩效有积极的影响,但仅限于国际化的中小企业。企业社会责任在网络能力与竞争绩效之间起中介作用。因此,该研究对企业社会责任以及中小企业国际化的文献都有所贡献,并论证了前者作为提高中小企业竞争力的真正预测因素的重要性。

We investigate the relationship between individual and job-related characteristics and motivation assessments of temporary agency workers. To do so, we make use of a unique dataset from one of Germany’s largest temporary work agencies. For 3,000 temporary agency workers, a subjective motivation appraisal is provided by the respective direct manager within the hiring company. We observe a positive relationship between the decision on transition to regular employment and the motivation assessment of temporary agency workers. Women in temporary agency work receive higher appraisals than men. However, the relation between project duration and motivation assessment is more pronounced for males. A change of the hiring company with follow-up projects is negatively related to motivation assessments of temporary agency workers. Hypothesis 4: There is a positive relationship between remaining with a hiring company on a follow-up project and the motivation assessment of the temporary agency worker.
本研究旨在探讨临时工个人特质与工作特质与动机评估的关系。为此,我们利用了德国最大的临时工作机构之一的独特数据集。对3000名临时劳务人员,由招聘公司的直接负责人对其进行主观动机评价。我们观察到临时工转正决策与临时工动机评估之间存在正相关关系。从事临时中介工作的女性比男性得到更高的评价。然而,项目持续时间与动机评估之间的关系在男性中更为明显。聘用公司与后续项目的变化与临时工的动机评价呈负相关。假设4:在后续项目中留在招聘公司与临时工的动机评估之间存在正相关关系。

The Value Adding Web Concept of Clusters – Strengthening and Extending the Fundament: Resources, Capabilities and Rents 集群增值网络概念——强化与拓展基础:资源、能力与租金

A sound understanding of the key resources and capabilities that span firm boundaries in regional clusters is important for firms embedded in networked structures to exploit strategic opportunities and manage associated challenges. A resource-based perspective of value creation in clusters to develop a better conceptualisation of strategic competitive advantage on different levels is also a relevant topic from a strategic management perspective. Therefore, the aim of this research is to strengthen and extend a resource-oriented perspective on clusters, according to the value adding web (VAW) approach developed by Brown et al. (e.g., 2008, 2010). This contribution complements the state of the art of contemporary concepts with a coherent fundament for the resource-based value adding web concept and thereby develops the basis for further empirical studies. In this conceptual paper, we focus on the interaction between actors and relationships as sources for value creation within clusters as well as gaining a better understanding of value creation based on shared relational resources. We illustrate this approach through a discussion of a maritime cluster. Specifically the role of social capital and the relevance of knowledge-related resources on different cluster levels is elaborated. Building on a descriptive and theoretical fundament, we present a set of propositions reflecting our chain of arguments.
对区域集群中跨越企业边界的关键资源和能力的充分理解对于嵌入网络结构的企业利用战略机遇和管理相关挑战非常重要。从战略管理的角度来看,在集群中以资源为基础的价值创造视角,在不同层面上更好地概念化战略竞争优势,也是一个相关的主题。因此,本研究的目的是根据Brown等人(例如,2008年,2010年)开发的增值网络(VAW)方法,加强和扩展资源导向的集群视角。这一贡献补充了当代概念的艺术状态,为基于资源的增值网络概念提供了连贯的基础,从而为进一步的实证研究奠定了基础。在这篇概念性的论文中,我们关注参与者和关系之间的互动,作为集群中价值创造的来源,并更好地理解基于共享关系资源的价值创造。我们通过对海上集群的讨论来说明这种方法。具体阐述了社会资本的作用和知识相关资源在不同集群层次上的相关性。在描述和理论的基础上,我们提出了一套反映我们的论证链的命题。

Consumer Responsibility and the Transformation Process of the Electricity Market: Insights From Behavioral Decision ResearchDate submitted: October 27, 2017Revised version accepted after double blind review: November 11, 2018 消费者责任与电力市场转型过程:来自行为决策研究的洞察交稿日期:2017年10月27日双盲审稿:2018年11月11日

Since the 1990s, consumer research has looked for causes that could explain the absence of switching behavior of electricity consumers in liberalized electricity markets. Recent decision theory findings suggest that this absence of switching behavior is due to the so-called status quo bias. The status quo bias reflects the tendency of individuals to prefer the actual situation disproportionately (Samuelson & Zeckhauser, 1988). Using the insights of this particular bias, an economic experiment was designed to empirically test the influence of the status quo bias. In a choice-based conjoint analysis, subjects were repeatedly offered different variations of electricity contracts. 300 subjects were randomly assigned to either the control or the experimental group in four different treatments. In each of a total 15 decision-making situations, one electricity contract had to be chosen from the five different electricity contracts available. The only variation between the control and the experimental groups was that, in each decision situation of the three different status quo treatments, always one of the five electricity contracts was preselected by default. In accordance with a specific decision-making rule, this was always either the most renewable, the most local or the most expensive electricity contract. The results show significant differences between the control and the experimental group with respect to the part-worth utilities and the relative importance of the attributes. In contrast to the expectations of the model of rational choice, the type of framing of the choice task, whether an electricity contract was preselected by default as a status quo or not, seemed to influence the decision behavior of the subjects. The results are criticized as to whether competition in the liberalized electricity market is a suitable instrument to promote climate and infrastructure projects in the long term by the individual choice of electricity consumers, or whether political measures that are brought about by a collective decision should be preferred.
自20世纪90年代以来,消费者研究一直在寻找可以解释在开放的电力市场中电力消费者缺乏转换行为的原因。最近的决策理论发现表明,这种转换行为的缺失是由于所谓的现状偏见。现状偏见反映了个体不成比例地偏爱实际情况的倾向(Samuelson & Zeckhauser, 1988)。利用这种特殊偏见的见解,设计了一个经济实验,以经验检验现状偏见的影响。在一项基于选择的联合分析中,研究人员反复向受试者提供不同的电力合同。300名受试者被随机分配到对照组或实验组,接受四种不同的治疗。在15种决策情境中,每一种情境都必须从5种不同的电力合同中选择一种。对照组和实验组之间唯一的差异是,在三种不同的现状处理的每个决策情境中,总是默认预选五种电力合同中的一种。根据特定的决策规则,这总是最可再生的,最本地的或最昂贵的电力合同。结果显示,在部分价值效用和属性的相对重要性方面,对照组和实验组之间存在显著差异。与理性选择模型的预期相反,选择任务的框架类型,即电力合同是否被默认预选为现状,似乎会影响受试者的决策行为。结果被批评为,在开放的电力市场中,竞争是否是通过电力消费者的个人选择来促进长期气候和基础设施项目的合适工具,或者是否应该优先考虑由集体决定带来的政治措施。

The article focuses on a current trend in office design: Activity Based Work (ABW). This is an office solution that instead of providing employees with designated places, it provides them with a variety of spaces in the office that offer different functionalities. A case study is presented of the ongoing effort of a multinational technology company in the software industry to implement ABW at a local site in Sweden. Based on an analysis of the individual and focus group interviews of company employees, the article argues that the non-territorial foundation of ABW is seen as a threat to the work-related identity among certain groups within the company. The findings presented comprise specific insights into how the material aspects of organizational life interact with social identity construction.
本文重点介绍了办公室设计的当前趋势:基于活动的工作(ABW)。这是一种办公室解决方案,它不是为员工提供指定的场所,而是为他们提供办公室内提供不同功能的各种空间。本文介绍了一个案例研究,介绍了一家软件行业的跨国技术公司在瑞典的一个本地站点正在进行的实现ABW的努力。通过对公司员工个人访谈和焦点小组访谈的分析,本文认为,在公司内部的某些群体中,非属地基础被视为对工作身份的威胁。研究结果包括对组织生活的物质方面如何与社会身份建构相互作用的具体见解。
