Abstract

The effects of management innovations on performance are understudied, especially with respect to social performance. Our study contributes to this debate by examining the potential benefits of adopting liberation management, a typical management innovation when it comes to addressing a social performance gap. If employee empowerment is regarded as a lever of social performance in liberated companies, the extant literature does not reach a consensus on these alleged positive effects either. Our quantitative method – a quasiexperiment comparing two units (one liberated and another non-liberated) of a French industrial company – allows us to conclude that three liberation practices can in fact have a positive effect on social performance: participative decision-making, personalised support, and right to make mistakes.

管理创新和社会绩效:我们可以从采用解放管理实践中学到什么?

管理创新对绩效的影响尚未得到充分研究，特别是在社会绩效方面。我们的研究通过考察采用解放管理的潜在好处，为这场辩论做出了贡献。解放管理是解决社会绩效差距的一种典型的管理创新。如果将员工授权视为解放企业社会绩效的杠杆，现有文献也没有就这些所谓的积极影响达成共识。我们的定量方法——一个准实验，比较了一家法国工业公司的两个单位(一个解放了，另一个没有解放)——让我们得出结论，三个解放实践实际上可以对社会绩效产生积极影响:参与式决策、个性化支持和犯错的权利。

Management International Review welcomes both theoretical and empirical work. Original papers are invited that are based on a solid theoretical basis and a rigorous methodology. In the area of empirical studies, the journal publishes both quantitative and qualitative research.

On average, two of these issues are Focused Issues, which concentrate on a specific subfield of International Management.
