It uses the original job demands–resources theoretical approach to show that coopetition may pose a health risk by generating burnout among workers due to high job demands. A parallel mediation model was used to investigate whether coopetition is related to emotional exhaustion via deterioration in working conditions. The quantitative analysis of data collected from 188 French workers confirms that the cognitive effort and emotional labor imposed on individuals to achieve coopetitive performance provokes emotional exhaustion. These results enrich the theoretical context of coopetition at the individual level: first, the performance of coopetition impacts the health of workers due to the efforts necessary to transform their work habits, reconfigure their resources and/or acquire new skills aligned with the strategy; secondly, workers must make an emotional regulation effort to align with relational strategies: if workers do not modify their authentic emotions, they prefer to engage more in the artificial presentation of emotions expected by stakeholders. Therefore, organizations engaged in coopetition must anticipate these additional cognitive and emotional efforts, such as through awareness, training and recovery programs for their managers and workers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"44 2","pages":"Pages 212-221"},"PeriodicalIF":7.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147636521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We offer an analytical framework linking relational and structural attributes of complex systems: self-organisation, multiple systems and interdependence, coevolution, and nonlinearity with three types of coordination: vertical, horizontal, and hybrid. Based on a comparative study of two case meta-organisations, the Intermunicipal Political Council and World Trade Organisation, the findings suggest that one attribute of a complex system cannot determine the method of coordination, and only their combination provides a comprehensive understanding of coordination in meta-organisations. Furthermore, the results highlight the pivotal role of the context of meta-organisations in determining a coordination method. This study establishes a theoretical partnership between meta-organisation and complex systems, thereby reducing the abstractness of complexity theory in public administration and management studies. Additionally, its contribution includes a comparative case study, addressing a gap in the meta-organisation literature mainly focused on single-case studies.

This study examines the effectiveness of gender equality policies in increasing women's representation in management and professional roles in IT organizations. Instead of examining the net effects of each gender equality policy, we use complexity theory, signaling theory, and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to elucidate how the configurations of five gender equality policies send simultaneous signals to enhance the representation of women. Seven-year panel data for 264 IT organizations operating in Australia were collected from the Workplace Gender Equality Agency's database. Our key findings are: (1) an integrated approach to gender equality is needed because a single policy alone does not determine women's representation; (2) because of complex interactions, multiple policy configurations can achieve strong female representation across hierarchical levels; and (3) the structures of configurations for strong representation and not-strong representation differ, suggesting that the underlying causality of women's representation in IT is asymmetric. These findings underline the importance of integrating complexity and signaling theories to identify effective gender equality policy combinations while highlighting managerial strategies for IT organizations to enhance women's representation across hierarchical levels.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"44 2","pages":"Pages 222-234"},"PeriodicalIF":7.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147636522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We contribute to upper echelons theory by suggesting that CEO personality, particularly CEO narcissism, may influence TMT composition.

Conflicting advice compounds the challenge: normative writing guidelines promote conformity through clarity and correctness, whereas postcolonial critique encourages dissent against the symbolic dominance of English. The article contends that neither stance adequately explains the rhetorical dissonance and confusion felt by translingual authors when engaging with Anglophone management journals. To address this gap, the essay juxtaposes micro level conventions of text construction with patterns of epistemic marginalisation to operationalise postcolonial critique into practical heuristics. Specifically, it identifies four recurring points of genre mismatch (paragraph structure, voice, stance, and citation practice) and reframes them not as deficits but as divergences between rhetorical traditions. Drawing on lived experience and linguistic research, the paper illustrates how these tensions surface in manuscripts to reveal the genre grammar embedded in mainstream publishing norms. The contribution is both political and diagnostic. Linking micro level conventions to epistemic marginalisation generates awareness that promotes agency not through compliance but through informed rhetorical choice. Making expectations explicit provides a practical lever for change and guides feedback towards more effective support.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48290,"journal":{"name":"European Management Journal","volume":"44 2","pages":"Pages 206-211"},"PeriodicalIF":7.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147636520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
