  • managerial mystique magical thinking in judgments of managers vision charisma and magnetism
    Journal of Management, 2013
    Co-Authors: Maia J. Young, Michael W. Morris, Vicki M Scherwin
    Abstract:

    Successful Businesspeople are often attributed somewhat mystical talents, such as the ability to mesmerize an audience or envision the Future. We suggest that this mystique—the way some managers are perceived by observers—arises from the intuitive logic that psychologists and anthropologists call magical thinking. Consistent with this account, Study 1 found that perceptions of a manager’s mystique are associated with judgments of his or her charismatic vision and ability to forecast Future Business trends. The authors hypothesized that mystique arises especially when success is observed in the absence of mechanical causes, such as long hours or hard-won skills. In Study 2, managers who succeeded mysteriously rather than mechanically evoked participants’ attributions of foresight and their expectations of success at visionary tasks yet not at administrative tasks. The authors further hypothesized that as mystique is assumed to spread through contagion, observers desire physical contact with managers who ar...

In Study 2, managers who succeeded mysteriously rather than mechanically evoked participants’ attributions of foresight and their expectations of success at visionary tasks, yet not administrative tasks. We further hypothesized that as mystique is assumed to spread through contagion, observers desire physical contact with managers who are attributed mystique and their possessions. Study 3 found managers described as visionary as opposed to diligent are judged to be charismatic and ultimately magnetic. We discuss the implications of these judgment patterns for the literatures on perception biases and impression management in organizations.

  • relational contracts and collaboration in the supply chain impact of expected Future Business volume on the make or buy decision
    Social Science Research Network, 2016
    Co-Authors: Francisco Brahm, Jorge Tarzijan
    Abstract:

    Relational contracts are key to supply chain collaboration. The literature has focused on the role of trust stemming from prior Business with current suppliers. However, the role of expected Future Business volume on the make-or-buy decision has been relatively neglected. This paper contributes to the literature by examining how the level of expected Future Business volume affects the make-or-buy decision, that is, the choice to produce the product or service internally rather than to outsource it. Using regression analysis of secondary data from 12,272 construction projects and controlling for endogeneity, our results show that expected Future Business volume promotes outsourcing and that this impact is larger when the level of prior Business with external suppliers is stronger and there is more specificity in the relationship. Our results are consistent with a game theoretic logic in which informally promising Future interactions to sustain collaboration is more credible to external suppliers than to internal units because the former can use their assets elsewhere. Also, our results suggest that trust stemming from prior Business reinforces the calculativeness logic that stems from the expectation of Future Business.

  • enterprise architecture Business and it alignment
    ACM Symposium on Applied Computing, 2005
    Co-Authors: Carla Pereira, Pedro Sousa
    Abstract:

    Organizations have existing systems infrastructure that are the result of decades of one-by-one implementations of specific solutions. As organizations, products, customers and technologies continue to change at an increasingly rapid rate, managers have sought overviews that will allow them to understand how Business and IT within their organization fits together. Enterprise Architecture is a representation of the organization to enable the planning of the organization changes. It includes the current and Future Business objectives, goals, visions, strategies, informational entities, Business processes, people, organization structures, application systems, technological infrastructures, and so on.In this paper, we show how the alignment between Business and IT can be disaggregated into four different dimensions and we present some heuristics to ensure such alignment.
