    Top Management Team Diversity: A systematic Review

    No full text
    Empirical research investigating the impact of top management team (TMT) diversity on executives’ decision making has produced inconclusive results. To synthesize and aggregate the results on the diversity-performance link, a meta-regression analysis (MRA) is conducted. It integrates more than 200 estimates from 53 empirical studies investigating TMT diversity and its impact on the quality of executives’ decision making as reflected in corporate performance. The analysis contributes to the literature by theoretically discussing and empirically examining the effects of TMT diversity on corporate performance. Our results do not show a link between TMT diversity and performance but provide evidence for publication bias. Thus, the findings raise doubts on the impact of TMT diversity on performance

    Public Sector Strategies in Curbing Corruption: A Review of the Literature

    No full text
    Corruption is widespread and preventive strategies to reduce corruption need to be adapted within the local context. Considering the United Nations (UN) Convention against corruption as our starting point, the paper presents a literature review based on 118 articles on corruption prevention initiatives in the public sector. The analysis indicates a substantial alignment between the guidelines deriving from the UN Convention, except for a lack of work on the risk-based approach to corruption prevention. Further, the review indicates problems with research designs. Based on the insights generated from the analysis, we develop an agenda for future research

    Are organisational defensive routines harmful to the relationship between personality and organisational learning?

    No full text
    This paper examines the interaction effect between a selection of personality traits — i.e. conscientiousness, openness to experience and neuroticism — and organizational defensive routines (ODRs) on organizational learning. The data sample included 351 employees from a wide range of industries in the UK. In line with the current literature, we hypothesized that ODRs act as a moderator between selected employee personality traits and learning. Though the findings do not support our hypotheses on the moderation effects, we could isolate an unexpected positive link between ODRs and organizational learning which merits attention and further research. Implications for the theory and limitations of the study are discussed

    The public service-motivated volunteer devoting time or effort: a review and research agenda

    No full text
    The purpose of this conceptual article is to further our understanding of how evolving volunteer trends impact on volunteering intensity. The aim is to provide clarity by applying to the volunteer literature a theoretical framework that can be adapted to different ways in which people volunteer and thus may inform subsequent empirical work. First, we address academic debates concerning the measurement of volunteer effort. Second, we propose using public service motivation (PSM) theory as a means to understand the motivation of volunteers across sectors. We suggest that different PSM dimensions may be more dominant in certain volunteer settings than others and incorporate person–organisation fit as a means to understand the relationship between PSM and volunteering intensity. Finally, this article proposes directions for future research
