Questioning the Conventional Wisdom: culture‐knowledge management relationships
Journal of Knowledge Management, 2008Co-Authors: William R. KingAbstract:Purpose – The aim of the paper is to provide a framework to enable firms and researchers to better understand and to test for the impact of various levels of culture on knowledge management practice and success.Design/methodology/approach – The paper questions the Conventional Wisdom that culture is a critical antecedent of KM success under all circumstances.Findings – A conceptual framework that can be used by a firm to address culture‐KM relationship issues or by researchers to study them more rigorously is developed.Practical implication – The measures presented here may be employed by firms, without sophisticated statistical analyses, to address issues of culture‐KM relationships.Originality/value – The paper questions the Conventional Wisdom and develops an approach that may be used to test it.

“Righting” Conventional Wisdom: Women and Right Parties in Established Democracies
Politics & Gender, 2018Co-Authors: Diana Z. O'brienAbstract:Parties are the key actors shaping women's representation in advanced parliamentary democracies. Based on traditional patterns of feminist organizing, Conventional Wisdom suggests that parties of the left are the strongest advocates for women. Despite the prevalence of this claim, a burgeoning body of work indicates that parties on the right can—and often do—seek to represent women. To address these competing narratives, this article offers the first large- N, party-level study of women's descriptive and substantive representation over place and time. The results suggest that party ideology continues to affect women's representation: right parties lag behind their left counterparts with respect to women's presence in elected office, and right and left parties address women differently on their platforms. At the same time, there is significant heterogeneity among right parties. Christian democrats, for example, are more likely than conservatives to adopt voluntary gender quotas and make policy claims on behalf of women. The traditional left-right distinction is thus too coarse to fully explain party behavior in these states.

Questioning Conventional Wisdom
Circulation. Cardiovascular quality and outcomes, 2009Co-Authors: Harlan M. KrumholzAbstract:In science, what seems obvious may not be true, and what is accepted as Conventional Wisdom, may sometimes be based on flawed assumptions. What is more obvious than the fact that the sun revolves around the earth? Each day the sun rises in the eastern horizon, and we observe it moving across the sky until it retires in the west. And yet, it is not true that the earth is the center of the universe. Galileo de’ Galilei, the scientist born in Pisa, was persecuted for questioning such Conventional Wisdom and supporting the theory proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus of a heliocentric universe. Ultimately, the truth could not be suppressed. We have many examples of progress that resulted from the questioning of strongly held beliefs that once seemed so obvious. Who anticipated that a gastric ulcer could be considered an infectious disease?1 Who expected that drugs that effectively suppressed premature ventricular beats in patients with ischemic heart disease would cause harm?2 Who believed that treatment strategies associated with substantial risk reduction might be poorly adopted into practice even 10 years after the publication of the trials establishing their efficacy?3 Who could …

Editor's Perspective Questioning Conventional Wisdom
2009Co-Authors: Harlan M. KrumholzAbstract:In science, what seems obvious may not be true, and what is accepted as Conventional Wisdom, may sometimes be based on flawed assumptions. What is more obvious than the fact that the sun revolves around the earth? Each day the sun rises in the eastern horizon, and we observe it moving across the sky until it retires in the west. And yet, it is not true that the earth is the center of the universe. Galileo de’ Galilei, the scientist born in Pisa, was persecuted for questioning such Conventional Wisdom and supporting the theory proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus of a heliocentric universe. Ultimately, the truth could not be suppressed. We have many examples of progress that resulted from the questioning of strongly held beliefs that once seemed so obvious. Who anticipated that a gastric ulcer could be considered an infectious disease?1 Who expected that drugs that effectively suppressed premature ventricular beats in patients with ischemic heart disease would cause harm?2 Who believed that treatment strategies associated with substantial risk reduction might be poorly adopted into practice even 10 years after the publication of the trials establishing their efficacy?3 Who could predict that an intervention that lowered low-density lipoprotein and increased high-density lipoprotein would increase mortality through possible offtarget effects? 4 Who was ready for evidence that elective percutaneous coronary intervention for patients with stable heart disease would not reduce the risk of dying or prevent heart attacks, and would be such an expensive approach to improving quality of life? 5,6 As clinician-scientists, we have a responsibility to question Conventional Wisdom—to open our eyes to insight that may be easily eclipsed by the dogma of the moment. And then, we must provide evidence that goes beyond opinion so that the emerging expert consensus has been thoroughly examined and tested. We perceive Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes as a vehicle to promote the dissemination of evidence that often challenges Conventional Wisdom. The goal is not to foment, dissent, or arbitrarily criticize established doctrine, but rather to support dialogue that critically examines the status quo and, when necessary, questions dogma that is widely accepted as authoritative truth. The intent is to raise important questions, address gaps in knowledge, and elevate clinical care and healthcare policy by inquiring about the impact of treatments on the patient. Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes seeks to provide a welcoming forum for disparate views, with the stipulation that the focus remains on the science.
