The hypotheses were tested with cross‐sectional survey data collected among employees in the education sector. The results reveal that a critical reason that beliefs about a mismatch between personal and organizational values spur slacking on work tasks is that employees make plans to quit. This mediating effect is invigorated by employees' uncertainty avoidance orientation but mitigated by their collectivistic orientation. This investigation therefore pinpoints an important conduit, plans to leave, through which frustrations with misaligned values escalate into a failure to meet work deadlines. Organizations can identify employees who are more or less likely to exhibit such a negative spiral, due to the strength of their uncertainty avoidance and collectivistic orientations.","PeriodicalId":47372,"journal":{"name":"European Management Review","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135482588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focusing on the pursuit of revenue and status goals by private universities, we offer a typology of organizational responses (i.e., reducing ambitions, compensatory strategies, and complementary use of slack to pursue new opportunities) which are shaped by the set of challenges and capabilities that poor and superior performance in these goal dimensions present. When poor performance in both revenue and status leads to different types of liabilities that together result in a low likelihood of recovery, universities respond by reducing ambitions and diversifying into a lower status market segment, which offers a more promising path to survival. In response to a mixed performance outcome in revenue and status, universities employ compensatory strategies where they make use of the achievement in one goal dimension to repair the damage in the other. Finally, universities expand the scope of activities when they achieve superior performance in both goals, and the resulting slack in revenue and status provides complementary capabilities to pursue new opportunities. These findings extend the early Carnegie proposal and indicate that the portfolio of organizational responses to performance gaps may be broader than previously considered.","PeriodicalId":47372,"journal":{"name":"European Management Review","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135644086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigate 183 JV cases and examine the main effect of equity investment as well as the moderating effect of ambidexterity imbalance on the relationship between JVs' knowledge exploitation and exploration of their innovation performance. We utilize proprietary Securities Data Corporation (SDC) JV data combined with the National Bureau of Economic Research's (NBER) patent dataset to develop a mediated moderation model. The model indicates that equity investment is positively related to knowledge exploitation, which in turn has a positive effect on JVs' innovation; in addition, these relationships vary alongside ambidexterity imbalance. Our findings confirm the mediating role played by knowledge exploitation in JVs' innovative activities and highlight the tradeoff between organizational ambidexterity balance and knowledge exploitation as well as its influence on JVs' innovation performance. This research illuminates the foundations of JV innovation.

This results in a matrix with four types of projects that display different qualities of entrepreneurialness: replicative projects, incubation projects, insightful projects, and innovative projects. We draw on the knowledge governance literature to suggest mechanisms and strategies of governance based on the prevailing type of project that the organization pursues.
