This paper provides a comprehensive, integrative conceptual review of work on communities of practice (CoPs), defined broadly as groups of people bound together by a common activity, shared expertise, a passion for a joint enterprise, and a desire to learn or improve their practice. We identify three divergent views on the intended purposes and expected effects of CoPs: as mechanisms for fostering learning and knowledge-sharing, as sources of innovation, and as mechanisms to defend interests and perpetuate control over expertise domains. We use these different lenses to make sense of the ways CoPs are conceptualized and to review scholarly work on this topic. We argue that current debate on the future of work and new methodological developments are challenging the received wisdom on CoPs and offer research opportunities and new conceptual combinations. We argue also that the interaction between the lenses and between CoP theory and adjacent literatures might result in new theory and conceptualizations.

New ideas are central to a wide array of organizational phenomena and research that involve creativity and innovation. Yet, there is little consensus on what the concept of ‘ ideas ’ means, with a broad range of creative outputs being conceptualized as ideas. This fragmentation makes it challenging to compare studies and build a cumulative base of knowledge. To integrate different streams of organizational research, we reviewed papers across the creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship, design, knowledge creation, and network literatures. We propose a “ wave-particle duality ” framework of ideas to synthesize two distinct but complementary approaches to understanding and studying ideas. Our framework offers guidance on how to approach the study of ideas, reconciles apparent conflicts in the literature, and suggests opportunities for advancing our understanding of ideas in creative work.

We conducted an integrative review of research on listening relevant to work and organizations published from 2000 to 2021 and across three disciplines (management, psychology, and communication studies). We found that listening research is fragmented across three perspectives: (a) perceived listening , (b) the listener ’ s experience and (c) listening structures . We discuss how integrating these perspectives highlights two major tensions in listening research. First, there is a tension between the speaker ’ s perceptions and the listener ’ s experience that reveals a listening paradox — while listening is perceived to be beneficial for speakers, it can be experienced as costly and depleting for listeners. This paradox reveals why people struggle with listening when it is needed the most. Second, listening structures in organizations can create tensions between organizational goals and the listener ’ s experience. While organizations use listening structures to enable and signal listening, these efforts can impose greater costs on listeners, reinforce existing power structures, and create opportunities for unwanted surveillance. Managing these tensions provides fertile ground for future research, in part because recent advances in communication technologies are changing the dynamics and structure of listening in organizations.

In this review, I integrate a wide range of literature that has examined how the “geographic mobility” of high-skilled workers creates value for organizations and individuals. Drawing on this interdisciplinary literature, I document that it creates value by facilitating the transfer and recombination of knowledge, transfer of social capital, organizational norms, and financial capital, as well as by creating opportunities for individuals to develop skills, seek resources, and experience wage increases. I also review the literature around “geographic immobility” and synthesize this body of research under a framework of “geographic mobility frictions” that constrain and add costs to geographic mobility. I enumerate four key types of frictions—regulatory frictions, occupational/organizational frictions, personal frictions, and economic/environmental frictions—that act as impediments to geographic mobility. I then propose a research agenda around studying whether and how provisioning “geographic flexibility” through “work-from-anywhere” policies might help individuals and firms capture value from geographic mobility and mitigate adverse effects of geographic mobility frictions. I also outline future research questions related to how adoption of geographic flexibility might alter future patterns of geographic mobility, and the future geography of work.
