We adopt an organizational justice lens to investigate push and pull dynamics around maternity leave. Through a four-wave interview study with 35 highly educated women in France (134 interviews), we investigate their personal (un)fairness experiences at work as well as their changing career and work-life priorities and choices. Using a contemporary approach to grounded theory, we find that injustice events and inactions interlink to form injustice episodes, which often change and extend over time. Injustice episodes (push factors) and changing career and work-life priorities (pull factors) are found to influence each other and to exert both direct and indirect effects on career withdrawal over time, illustrating how pushes and pulls intertwine to create career disadvantages for women when they become mothers.

The articles examine a range of psychological processes central to gig work, including identity regulation, flow experience, psychological detachment, safety and risk assessments, and algorithmic management. Taken together, they demonstrate that gig work represents more than just a novel context for applying existing theories; it also provides opportunities to rethink foundational OB constructs such as autonomy, motivation, emotional well-being, and managerial control. This special issue illustrates how distinctive features of gig work—algorithmic oversight, precariousness, and limited organizational attachment—challenge traditional assumptions embedded in existing OB theories. Furthermore, it highlights methodological challenges and opportunities unique to gig research.

We utilize situation awareness theory to explain how such change can be prompted by a design intervention that improves the permeability of the organization and increases environmental prognostication—utilizing knowledge from the external environment to take actions today that can help overcome challenges that will likely exist in the future. We test this theory with a quasi-experiment pooled interrupted time series design. The intervention involved implementing the permeable organizational design by creating a hub of specialists outside the team who were enlisted to bring information to the team, so knowledge acquisition processes are experienced as support. The sample was 57 sales teams across 3 years tracking quarterly gross profit. We hypothesized and found that for the teams in the intervention condition, a positive team turning point emerged in team performance, whereas the control condition continued to struggle with flat performance trajectories. In a subsample of 33 teams, we found that environmental prognostication was significantly higher in the intervention condition compared to the control condition and that environmental prognostication mediated the link between the quasi-experimental condition and positive turning point in team performance. We also showed that alternative knowledge processes (e.g., less advanced forms of situation awareness, external information gathering, and reflexivity) and perceived access to organizational resources did not account for the relationship as mediators.

However, this literature is developing in a rather fragmented and isolated manner. The absence of a unifying conceptual framework stands to potentially stymy progress and understanding of this phenomenon. Therefore, we highlight leader role transition as a unique leadership topic and aim to provide a holistic understanding of leader role transition as a dynamic process. In a systematic review of 136 articles, we identify three key lines of inquiry (i.e., adjustment, identity transformation, and social construction) and synthesize them through the lens of role transition theory.

Yet, knowledge of the antecedents and outcomes of FWAs is incomplete and inconclusive. It remains unclear what factors facilitate the perceived availability and use of FWAs, and under what conditions FWAs are most beneficial, including (1) whether flexibility in work schedule (flextime), work location (flexplace) or both (flextime + place) is most beneficial, and (2) whether employees must use FWAs to reap their benefits. To address these gaps, we conduct a comprehensive meta-analysis to examine theoretically derived antecedents and outcomes of FWAs. We also examine whether different types of FWAs—flextime versus flexplace versus flextime + place, and FWA availability versus FWA use—moderate the relationships between FWAs and outcomes. Meta-analytic results based on 113 studies with 88 618 participants identify a host of important antecedences of FWAs, such as managerial status, self-efficacy, and task interdependency. Consistent with social exchange theory, Conservation of Resources theory and boundary theory, FWAs were significantly associated with beneficial outcomes, such as greater job satisfaction, organisational commitment, job autonomy, life satisfaction, better work-family interface and family satisfaction. Significant moderation indicate that more beneficial employee outcomes were associated with (1) having both flextime and flexplace compared to flextime or flexplace alone, (2) flextime compared to flexplace and (3) the availability compared to use of FWAs.

Although prior research has demonstrated their connection with each other, most studies have examined trust and helping behavior in a static manner. Relatedly, although recent research has started to utilize network methods to consider the role of the surrounding social context in shaping trust, these inquiries remain limited by a static, aggregate view, looking at network structures such as one's network size or position in the network. The current study aims to advance our understanding by examining how trust and helping behaviors coevolve dynamically within social networks, incorporating both dyadic and triadic (third-party) influences. Integrating social information processing theory with social exchange theory, the current study explores how individuals develop trust and engage in helping behaviors in a triad through interacting with each other and observing the informational and social elements in the triad. Based on three-wave social network data from a Chinese hospital, we used stochastic actor–based modeling to examine the dynamic coevolution of trust and helping ties over time. The results demonstrated that trust and helping networks evolve reciprocally, influenced by the types of relationships and agents involved. Specifically, interpersonal helping fosters trust within dyads, and trust can be transferred through third-party connections. Employees are more likely to trust a coworker when they receive indirect help from the coworker or when the coworker engages in helping behaviors with others. Employees also tend to help a coworker when both are trusted by a third party. Overall, these results highlight the importance of third-party influences in shaping trust and helping behaviors, offering new insights for both theory and practice.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48450,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Behavior","volume":"46 9","pages":"1305-1323"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145487056","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}

This assumption can, however, be questioned based on research indicating that different types of values are related to diverging outcomes. A prime example of this research draws from self-determination theory (SDT), which asserts that intrinsic values (e.g., contributing to society) are positively related to beneficial outcomes (e.g., well-being, commitment, OCB), whereas extrinsic values (e.g., fame) are negatively related to such outcomes. We integrate SDT with value congruence research to answer whether outcomes depend on the congruence between individual and organizational values as well as on the content of the values involved. Using longitudinal data from 740 employees and applying polynomial regression analysis, we show that the relationships of individual and organizational values with outcomes depend on the content of values. For instance, when intrinsic values are congruent, work engagement increases with rising individual and organizational values. Conversely, the presence of extrinsic values is associated with increased deviant behavior and emotional exhaustion, even under conditions of value congruence. Our findings advocate a contingency approach to value congruence research, which considers the critical importance of the content of values.
