Drawing on social exchange theory, we propose that the employee voice gap can be a significant reason for turnover intention, and such a relationship is mediated by employees’ perceptions of working conditions and industrial relations climate. We also argue that these relationships exist at the firm level and that the aggregated voice gaps are associated with organizational turnover rates. We provide empirical evidence for the relationships using the 2019 China Employer-Employee Matched Survey data of 4602 employees from 301 firms. The findings of our study point to similar voice gap patterns to those found in the North American context, indicating the universal effects of workplace voice gaps. In addition, our analysis reveals that having more voice than needed is not associated with these outcomes. Our study enriches the employee voice literature in general and in the Chinese context specifically through an interdisciplinary lens.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8474,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Management","volume":"42 3","pages":"1833 - 1888"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141002881","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}

A decade following the Tang et al. (2012) consensus construct and scale, critiques remain questioning its utility and unique value to the major conversations in entrepreneurship. Proponents put great emphasis on entrepreneurial alertness’s proven association with opportunity recognition and entrepreneurial actions. Yet, critics suggest it might be an unnecessary step offering little more than a positive association with opportunity recognition in a highly generalized and static way. The purpose of this paper is to address this tension. We do so through a ‘steel man’ approach to these valid concerns. Further, we question the logic of limiting a cognitive construct to a singular event: ‘opportunity recognition’ for a new venture (which we term here, the “Big O”). Drawing on a comprehensive framework inclusive of the full entrepreneurship phenomenon, and integrating insights from cross-cultural psychology, we put forth the case for an ongoing culturally contextualized process perspective towards venturing where individuals are alert to and pursue opportunities (and cope with threats) continuously. This paper provides a new framework for delineating a theoretically grounded “what” and “when” of entrepreneurial alertness.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8474,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Management","volume":"42 1","pages":"137 - 165"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10490-024-09965-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140941854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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 theorize leader perceived threat to hierarchy (power-threatening process) and perceived power dependence on subordinations (power-sustaining process) as two parallel mechanisms through which leader Machiavellianism affects abusive supervision. We further identify leader position power as a boundary factor that influences the power-threatening and power-sustaining processes. Using multi-wave, multi-source data collected from 175 supervisors and their 763 subordinates, we found that Machiavellian leaders were more likely to perceive high threats from subordinates to the existing hierarchy, though this threat perception was not significantly associated with abusive supervision. Additionally, Machiavellian leaders were also more likely to perceive high power dependence on subordinates, which in turn reduced their abusive supervision. We further found that leader position power strengthened the positive effect of leader Machiavellianism on leader perceived threat to hierarchy, but did not weaken the positive effect of leader Machiavellianism on leader perceived power dependence on subordinates.

To reduce the negative influence of blockholder rent appropriation (BRA) on firms, a controlling blockholder (hereafter, the blockholder) with strong power might exploit a CEO, the primary agent of a firm, leading to possible principal–agent (PA) conflict. In this case, such PA conflict can be negatively reflected in the CEO’s compensation contract. Drawing on the social theory of agency, we suggest that the cognitive frameworks and power relations of the blockholder and the CEO influence CEO compensation design. The cognitive framework explains that an optimal compensation design is affected by the social norm of CEO compensation and a CEO’s personal value system in an emerging market. Power relations indicate how blockholders may exercise their power for the optimal stringent CEO compensation design depending on their interdependent relationship with a CEO. Based on the two underlying mechanisms, we examine how BRA influences the compensation of the three types of CEOs who have different cognitive values and power relations with the blockholder, including a blockholder as the CEO, a blockholder-affiliated CEO, and a professional CEO. By analyzing 3,621 listed Chinese firms from 2006 to 2021, we find that BRA negatively affects the compensation of a blockholder CEO and a professional CEO, and has a negligible effect on that of an affiliated CEO. We further find that the negative effect of BRA on compensation is stronger for professional CEOs at state-controlled firms than those at private firms.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8474,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Management","volume":"42 3","pages":"1517 - 1563"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140664613","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 study investigates contributing factors to divergence in the CSR ratings issued by RKS and Hexun, the two dominant third-party CSR rating agencies in China, and the implications of such divergence. Using a longitudinal sample of 1414 CSR reports published by 387 Chinese public firms during the 2010–2015 period, we investigated whether CSR rating outcomes are influenced by CSR report information cues (report comprehensiveness and report content modifications) and non-CSR information (firms’ media coverage, auditing credibility, market risk, and industry complexity). CSR report comprehensiveness is associated with higher RKS and Hexun CSR ratings, however, media coverage and auditing credibility strengthens this relationship for RKS ratings. CSR report content modification resulted in higher RKS ratings only for firms with low market risk and in high complexity industries, while CSR report content modification resulted in higher Hexun ratings for firms in low complexity industries. Surprisingly, we found greater divergence in RKS and Hexun CSR ratings is associated with increased accuracy of analysts’ forecasts of firms’ future financial performance in China. We discuss the implications of study findings for the use of CSR ratings by analysts, investors and researchers, as well as firms’ strategic management of CSR reporting.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8474,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Management","volume":"42 3","pages":"1263 - 1301"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140664529","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}

During the catch-up stage, these companies should employ a market leveraging strategy and a technology deconstruction strategy to match the incumbents in the context of a pyramidal market ladder with low technology modularization. In the beyond-catch-up stage, as incumbents, they should adopt a market repositioning strategy and a technology reconstruction strategy to evolve into niche champions in the context of an upgraded market ladder with high technology modularization.
