Against this backdrop, we try to answer the question of whether DT could effectively bridge any interfirm knowledge capability gaps. Though effective knowledge transfer is dependent on the sender's and the receiver's knowledge capabilities, literature attributes very limited attention to their combined effects. Using signalling metaphor as the guiding framework, we forward disseminative capacity and absorptive capacity as the key capabilities of the sender and receiver, respectively, and study their combined effects on relational performance within vertical interfirm relationships. Additionally, with the belief that comprehending how DT could interplay with these capabilities holds crucial importance, we test the conjecture that DT can bridge knowledge capability gaps pertaining to the sender or the receiver. We position our hypotheses using the relational view and test them using the response surface methodology. The analysis is conducted based on a multi-respondent dyadic survey dataset that is augmented with secondary data and longitudinal performance data. Our findings showcase that disseminative capacity and absorptive capacity are natural counterparts and that the channel effectiveness resulting from adopting DT could serve as an offsetting capability that can effectively bridge certain knowledge capability gaps.</p>","PeriodicalId":48445,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Studies","volume":"63 8","pages":"4699-4736"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/joms.70101","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149369535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rather than constituting objects to be theorized or denoting special empirical contexts, grand challenges structure researchers’ attention and shape their interpretations of the processes and systems of deliberation through which collective action is coordinated. From this perspective, grand challenges require researchers to innovate their understandings of deliberation and to ensure that newly generated knowledge is redirected towards management and policymaking. The article integrates the Carnegie School theory of organization with French pragmatic sociology’s theory of justification, or <i>economies of worth</i>, to develop a phenomenological model of situated deliberation that links decision-making with moral reasoning. This model highlights deliberation’s articulated, evaluative, contestable, and trans-institutional character, as well as its grounding in the cognitive capacities and sociality of actors and observers – regardless of the scale, scope, or stratification of the underlying coordination problems. Building on this framework, the article advocates that grand challenge researchers adopt the standpoint of <i>entrepreneurial observers</i>: actors anchored by socio-economic and scientific commitments who envision the integration of previously disjointed social systems of deliberation to orient collective action.</p>","PeriodicalId":48445,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Studies","volume":"63 8","pages":"4737-4763"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/joms.70062","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149369598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This multi‐method study examines the use and effects of material consequences to promote consumer engagement with RPSs. A scoping review of 52 systems using the Behaviour Change Intervention Ontology revealed the use of positive material consequences (i.e., rewards), primarily through refundable deposits, and negative material consequences (i.e., penalties) mainly through late fees and surcharges. Interviews with RPS providers and operators revealed that decisions about incentives typically rely on intuition and business constraints rather than evidence. Quasi‐experimental analysis of field data from 31 German outlets suggested that €0.30–0.90 surcharges on single‐use containers increased reusable container transactions by 74%–98%, with effects persisting over 12 months. Effects tend to be stronger for higher surcharges and workplace settings. This research provides evidence that surcharges effectively increase reusable container transactions and provides a template for designing and testing other forms of material consequences to provide the evidence‐base needed to accelerate circular economy transitions through RPSs.","PeriodicalId":9518,"journal":{"name":"Business Strategy and The Environment","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.4,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149374248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We develop an integrated framework and empirically test it using survey data from 580 corporate entities headquartered in EU‐27 countries and subject to Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)‐related disclosure obligations. The data are analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS‐SEM). The empirical results highlight, on the one hand, the ability of the ESG platform to act as a critical technological antecedent capable of significantly driving ESG–management by objectives (MBO) integration ( <jats:italic>β</jats:italic> = 0.542); and, on the other hand, how the integration of sustainability metrics into performance management systems directly promotes the rigorous alignment of managerial incentive structures ( <jats:italic>β</jats:italic> = 0.612), while exerting a significant direct effect on overall sustainability performance ( <jats:italic>β</jats:italic> = 0.276).

Existing citation analysis methods mainly focus on citing authors' subjective intents, failing to consistently characterize cited papers' knowledge contributions. This study proposes the Knowledge Contribution Taxonomy (KCT), derived from the Scientific Research Logic Model, which identifies the type of knowledge a cited paper contributes based on the citation context. KCT classifies citations into Method, Resource Tool, Empirical Finding, and Background, further distinguishing core from non-core contributions. We propose a Dual-Path Fusion model for the classification task, which achieves an accuracy of 85.5%, outperforming mainstream large language models. An analysis of 802,202 citations from the ACL Anthology reveals that core knowledge contributions account for only 39.09% of all citations. The core knowledge contribution citation count achieves higher hit rates for award-winning papers than the traditional citation count at all ranking cutoffs, reflecting the value of differentiating knowledge contributions for research evaluation and impact prediction. In dissemination prediction experiments, KCT outperforms citation intent classification, demonstrating its stronger predictive validity for scholarly dissemination.

{"title":"Heavy Time: Sensemaking and the Temporal Experience","authors":"Gerardo Patriotta,&nbsp;Karl E. Weick","doi":"10.1111/joms.70163","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/joms.70163","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;In an email sent at Christmas 2019, Karl Weick made an admission that might surprise those who have spent careers reading his work: temporality is ‘almost never mentioned or analyzed in what I have written’. ‘Once I imprinted on retrospect’, he added, ‘that was it for my dealing with time. Time = hindsight. Period’. The confession is striking because Karl's work is saturated with temporal claims that go far beyond retrospection, even when time is never named as such. Action precedes cognition (Weick, &lt;span&gt;1979&lt;/span&gt;); organizations enact the environments they then interpret (Weick, &lt;span&gt;1979&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span&gt;1988&lt;/span&gt;); sensemaking is ‘ongoing’ (Weick, &lt;span&gt;1995&lt;/span&gt;); organizations improvise when the present overwhelms existing frameworks (Weick, &lt;span&gt;1993&lt;/span&gt;). Each of these formulations presupposes a particular account of how time is experienced, how it is organized, and how it is made meaningful. The temporal dimension of sensemaking theory has been present from the beginning (Tsoukas et al., &lt;span&gt;2020&lt;/span&gt;). What it has lacked is articulation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That articulation is the project of this essay, and it was one Karl and I pursued together. He was eager to do it, and characteristically modest about his own grasp of the subject, as when he wrote, with the play that was typical of him: ‘I keep trying to become sensitive to issues involving time so we can produce something jointly. I exhaust time while spending time in a timely manner searching for the timeless until I call time-out. That's the liability of treating time as sensemaking rather than something much less cognitive’. Our argument is that sensemaking theory harbours a coherent account of temporal experience, one that has operated as an implicit current beneath its explicit claims about cognition, action, and organizing. Sensemaking, read through this lens, is a theory of how humans and organizations inhabit time. To show this is to complete the sensemaking framework, surfacing what was always already there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The essay moves in three stages. The first draws on phenomenological accounts of time to establish how it is individually experienced. The second revisits sensemaking theory through a temporal lens, showing that its central concepts are implicitly claims about the flow and texture of time. The third grounds the argument organizationally, drawing on empirical research in newsrooms and manufacturing settings to show how the temporal experience is managed through sensemaking mechanisms. Throughout, one paradox returns, derived from Kierkegaard and given organizational force by Weick: organizations, like humans, must live forward while only being able to understand themselves backward (Kierkegaard, &lt;span&gt;1843/1967&lt;/span&gt;; Weick, &lt;span&gt;1999&lt;/span&gt;). The present, it turns out, is unreachable. That unreachability is the motor of sensemaking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A substantial body of past and emerging work has examined time in organizational life, ranging from the duality of clock a","PeriodicalId":48445,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management Studies","volume":"63 8","pages":"5076-5092"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2026-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/joms.70163","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149369430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, we examine how such abuse affects victims' in-role behaviours and job satisfaction in their new jobs. Building on the social–cognitive model of transference, we propose that the experience of former supervisors' abuse will lead to increased interaction avoidance with and decreased feedback seeking from current supervisors. We argue that these factors will in turn negatively influence victims' in-role behaviours and job satisfaction in their new workplace.

Crucially, the impact of reputation instability is further shaped by contextual cues that anchor investor expectations. A firm’s <i>current reputation</i> and <i>industry dynamism</i> condition how instability may be regarded, either as a warning sign or a potential indication of improvement. Using panel data across four major US industry groups over 21 years, we find evidence consistent with our theoretical framework and identify critical boundary conditions under which reputation instability is penalized or rewarded by the market.

However, empirical insights into the relationship between digital technologies and eco‐innovation remain lacking. With a quantitative synthesis and meta‐regression of 38 empirical studies published in high‐impact journals, encompassing 587 effect sizes, the current research clarifies the heterogeneous nature of this relationship across technology types and environmental outcomes. Digitalization is positively and statistically significantly associated with eco‐innovation. Across technology types, artificial intelligence, digital innovation, and smart product platforms show the strongest positive associations, while robotics and Industry 4.0 technologies yield weaker evidence. Across environmental outcomes, the results indicate robust positive associations with green innovation but negative or null associations on average for decarbonization. In revealing that digitalization alone might not be sufficient to achieve emissions reductions without complementary environmental strategies, this study contributes to twin transition literature and clarifies the heterogeneous nature of the digitalization‐eco‐innovation relationships.
