摘要

边缘政策在政治和国际事务中的作用已成为全球关注的热点。这是一种行为现象,为了获得让步,国家和政府等行为体采取的行动不仅可能伤害对手,也可能伤害自己。然而,它在商业和管理中的作用却隐藏在人们的视野之外,也远不为人所知。这是一个重要的疏忽,不仅因为企业的利害关系可能很高,还因为公司主导联盟的成员如何应对生存威胁对组织结果至关重要。我们介绍了组织边缘政策的概念,并概述了在家族参与企业也可以提高潜在风险的背景下,这一过程是如何展开的。随着我们对家族企业的关注,我们揭示了在哪些情况下,维持家族对企业的历史和当前控制的倾向可能会增加参与组织边缘政策的敏感性。我们贡献的基石是建立一个概念模型,解释边缘政策的过程如何在家族企业中展开。我们还提供了未来的研究议程,以指导学术界关注这一重要但尚未开发的研究领域,并提出建议。鉴于全球环境日益不稳定,这项工作尤其及时。

When so much is at stake: Understanding organizational brinkmanship in family business

The role of brinkmanship in politics and international affairs has captured headlines and popular attention around the globe. It is a behavioral phenomenon whereby to gain concessions actors like states and governments take actions that may not only harm their adversaries, but also themselves. However, hidden from view, and far less understood is its role in business and management. This is an important oversight not only because stakes can be high in business, but also because how members of a firm's dominant coalition respond to existential threats can be critical for organizational outcomes. We introduce the notion of organizational brinkmanship and outline how the process unfolds in a context where family engagement in the business can also serve to heighten potential stakes. With our focus on family business we unravel circumstances where the propensity to maintain historical and current family control over the business can increase susceptibility to engaging in organizational brinkmanship. The cornerstone of our contribution is to develop a conceptual model that explains how the process of brinkmanship can unfold in a family business. We also offer a future research agenda to guide scholarly attention on this important yet under-explored area of research and suggest propositions. This work is particularly timely in light of increasing environmental instability around the globe.
