We link two influential organizational learning models—performance feedback and experiential learning—to advance hypotheses that help explain how organizations’ from their own others’ experience is conditioned by aspiration-performance feedback. Our focus on failure; this kind of essential to adaptation, a necessary complement studies success. analysis U.S. Class 1 freight railroads’ accident costs 1975 2001 shows when railroad’s rate deviates aspiration levels, the railroad benefits less...
Although organizations and individuals tend to focus on learning from success, research has shown that failure can yield crucial insights in various contexts range small mistakes errors, product recalls, accidents, medical errors large-scale disasters. This review of the literature identifies three mechanisms—opportunity, motivation, ability—through which individuals, groups, learn failure, it bridges gaps between different levels analysis. Opportunity mostly takes shape more information...
Research on multimarket contact and firm performance has produced mixed results. To reconcile this discrepancy, we theorize how varying levels of may generate mutual forbearance that influences performance. We also examine strategic alliances moderate the relationship between Our analysis 233 semiconductor firms across 52 markets reveals an inverted U-shaped with a firm’s market share. The number helps to further extend positive effect mitigate its negative Accordingly, our study contributes...
Educational and national diversity are proposed to influence work teams' information use differently, with educational mainly enhancing invoking social categorization, thus hindering use. As expected, increasing positively influenced the range depth of for all except most diverse teams we studied, but negatively integration. In contrast our expectations, had curvilinear relationships range, depth, integration Both types provided information-processing benefits that outweighed limitations...
The academic literature on technology battles has grown rapidly since the 1970s, tracking ever-expanding role of information and communication technologies in our daily lives. An intriguing thread this pertains to influence social networks standards setting processes. While scholars acknowledge networks’ importance, their relevance sponsors’ efforts diffuse establish them as de facto have been neglected. We theorize that sponsors choose alliance partners according location connect potential...

When faced with a new standard, firm is influenced by various factors. Some forces motivate adoption of the while other factors have constraining effect. How do firms evaluate these opposing forces? We examine this question using data from US cellular telephones industry and suggest that not only technical merit likelihood market acceptance standard but also associated players developing standard. explore how choose resource when potential value yet established, whose both its owners users....

Research on technological opportunity has typically focused the impact of broad industry characteristics R&D intensity firms. This study complements such approaches by examining a multidimensional vector that measures independent inventors' decisions to patent and commercialize inventions. Using data from 559 inventions controlling for demand, appropriability, competitive conditions, we found two four tested dimensions - technical performance uncertainty be significant important determinants...
Errors are misinterpretations of received information; and failures have been defined as a deviation from expected or desired goals results. always occur in organizations, whether, how individuals organizations respond to learn errors is still not well understood. For example: what the factors that influence willingness an individual share failure experience at work? How do experience? And firms better learners when they lot learn, learned lot? To advance our understanding learning failures,...
Why are there so many measures of patent novelty? Novelty is a central concept in innovation studies but the way it measured state confusion. We examine patent-based novelty and find that they rarely grounded theory or empirically verified. Even though all based on same data, use different parts patents, often constrain which patents include comparisons, frequently impose conditions with unknown effects. Not surprisingly, some highly similar correlated, while others not at all. However, we...
