Effects of modularity on the organizational performance in presence of conformity
Purpose This research seeks to explore the intersection between modularity and conformity in organizational contexts. Modularity, a cornerstone of organizational design, pertains to the decomposability of tasks within an organization into subtasks with internal interdependence and external independence. Conformity, on the other hand, is the adjustment of an individual’s behavior to match that of others, often driven by a desire to adhere to socia…
Management Control from a Critical Rationalist Perspective
Karl R. Popper translated the core idea of critical rationalism to a managerial context when advocating the searching for and learning from mistakes as part of professional ethics. This paper builds on the conjecture that adopting a critical rationalist perspective contributes to advancing management control toward empirical foundation, scrutiny, and continuous learning. Based on the work of critical rationalist Hans Albert, three core components…
The impact of generative artificial intelligence on socioeconomic inequalities and policy making
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to both exacerbate and ameliorate existing socioeconomic inequalities. In this article, we provide a state-of-the-art interdisciplinary overview of the potential impacts of generative AI on (mis)information and three information-intensive domains: work, education, and healthcare. Our goal is to highlight how generative AI could worsen existing inequalities while illuminating how AI may hel…
Performance-Based Pay and Limited Information Access. An Agent-Based Model of the Hidden Action Problem
Models involving human decision-makers often include idealized assumptions, such as rationality, perfect foresight, and access to relevant information. These assumptions usually assure the models’ internal validity but, at the same time, might limit the models’ power to explain empirical phenomena. This paper addresses the well-known model of the hidden action problem, which proposes an optimal performance-based sharing rule for situations in whi…
Social Identity and Organizational Control
It has long been recognised that the identification of organizational members with their organization could mitigate collective action problems. One domain in economics and management addressing these fundamental problems is organizational control, as it focuses on aligning individualsâ€TM behavior with their organizationâ€TMs objectives. This paper considers organizational identification in interaction with major traits of the organizational con…
Adaptation of the boundary system in growing firms
The boundary system of a firm is intended to set constraints to the behaviour of organisational participants and, by this, to affect decision-making in the direction of the firm’s overall objective. In growing firms, the boundary system is subject to a particular tension: balancing the search for new opportunities and innovation with behavioural constraints to deal with increasing size and intra-organisational complexity. Against this background,…
Ten expert views on the Covid-19 pandemic
Compliance to “Unpleasant” actions of crisis management
In managing the Covid-16 pandemic, policy makers took actions which require the cooperation of individual citizens to succeed while the actions partially come at remarkable costs for individuals. The brief paper employs a thought experiment to identify factors which affect individuals’ propensity to cooperate in the public goods game. These factors reasonably comprise, for example, risk perception and attitude towards risk, embeddedness in a soci…
Emergence of Task Formation in Organizations
This paper studies the emergence of task formation under conditions of limited knowledge about the complexity of the problem to be solved by an organization. Task formation is a key issue in organizational theory and the emergence of task formation is of particular interest when the complexity of the overall problem to be solved is not known in advance, since, for example, an organization is newly founded or has gone through an external shock. Th…
