the effect of specificity of experience on a firm s perceived importance of Institutional Knowledge in an ongoing business
Journal of International Business Studies, 2006Co-Authors: Sylvie Chetty, Kent Eriksson, Jessica LindberghAbstract:We study how three types of firm experience, ranging from the specific to the general, influence the perceived importance of Institutional Knowledge in the ongoing business of internationalising firms based on a sample of 101 small-to-medium-sized firms. The three types of firm experiences are international, country and ongoing business. The results show that firm experience within the ongoing business, and the experience from multiple past business deals in various countries, develop Institutional Knowledge, whereas experience from multiple past business deals in a specific country does not. The theoretical contribution of this paper is that it establishes a link between different kinds of experience and managerial cognition in terms of Institutional Knowledge. In addition, it emphasises that firms develop Institutional Knowledge from multiple diverse country experiences, and experience in the specific ongoing business rather than experiences at the level of the country.

effect of variation on Knowledge accumulation in the internationalization process
International Studies of Management and Organization, 2000Co-Authors: Kent Eriksson, Jan Johanson, Anders Majkgard, Deo D SharmaAbstract:AbstractThis article examines the effect of variation in the geographical scope of international business operations on experiential Knowledge development in the internationalization of the firm. Based on learning theory, this article develops five hypotheses on the effects of variation on three interrelated components of international experiential Knowledge: internationalization Knowledge, business Knowledge, and Institutional Knowledge. LISREL analysis indicates that variation has a positive effect on the accumulation of experiential Knowledge in internationalizing firms. In particular, it demonstrates that internationalization Knowledge is a key variable that mediates the effect of variation on the other Knowledge variables.

the eco techno spectrum exploring Knowledge systems challenges in green infrastructure management
Urban Planning, 2021Co-Authors: Marissa A Matsler, Thaddeus R Miller, Peter M GroffmanAbstract:Infrastructure crises are not only technical problems for engineers to solve—they also present social, ecological, financial, and political challenges. Addressing infrastructure problems thus requires a robust planning process that includes examination of the social and ecological systems supporting infrastructure, alongside technical systems. An integrative Social, Ecological, and Technological Systems (SETS) analysis of infrastructure solutions can complement the planning process by revealing potential trade-offs that are often overlooked in standard procedures. We explore the interconnected SETS of the infrastructure problem in the US through comparative case studies of green infrastructure (GI) development in Portland and Baltimore. Currently a popular infrastructure solution to a wide variety of urban ills, GI is the use and mimicry of ecological components (e.g., plants) to perform municipal services (e.g., stormwater management). We develop the ecological-technological spectrum—or ‘eco-techno spectrum’—as a framing tool to bridge all three SETS dimensions. The eco-techno spectrum becomes a platform to explore the Institutional Knowledge system dynamics of GI development where social dimensions are organized across ecological and technological aspects of GI, exposing how governance differs across specific forms of ecological and technological hybridity. In this study, we highlight the Knowledge system challenges of urban planning institutions as a key consideration in the realization of innovative infrastructure crisis ‘fixes.’ Disconnected definition and measurement of GI emerge as two distinct challenges across the Knowledge systems examined. By revealing and discussing these challenges, we can begin to recognize—and better plan for—gaps in municipal planning Knowledge systems, promoting decisions that address the roots of infrastructure crises rather than treating only their symptoms.

making green fit in a grey accounting system the Institutional Knowledge system challenges of valuing urban nature as infrastructural assets
Environmental Science & Policy, 2019Co-Authors: Marissa A MatslerAbstract:Abstract Nature is increasingly enrolled as a functional component of infrastructure in cities as municipal governments attempt to cost-effectively replace and repair deteriorating engineered infrastructures. Green infrastructure (GI) is a popular incarnation of this enrollment, most often defined in the United States (US) as the use of vegetated land (e.g. street-trees, bioswales, parks) to provide stormwater management services. However, GI is far from mainstream. While many municipalities cite technical performance uncertainty as a primary reason for this lag, Institutional challenges of Knowledge system integration also create road-blocks to GI management. In this paper, I argue that financial asset management (AM) standards are an important, but obscured, Institutional barrier to the mainstreaming of GI in the US. I use Knowledge Systems Analysis to illuminate the Institutional tensions that emerge from attempting to fit nature into existing AM practices. Primarily, tensions stem from the inability to “book” natural components of GI (such as trees, soils, vegetation) as assets as they are not recognized by US financial accounting rules and standards; this has encouraged a proliferation of highly engineered GI that contain human-made components at the expense of more ecological GI that do not contain human-made components. I first review the use of corporate AM practices in North American municipalities, and outline the general motivations for including urban nature in AM. I then zoom in on a case study in Portland, Oregon where a 2016 effort to create a city-wide Green Asset Plan encountered road-blocks that reflect the wider national Knowledge system challenges surrounding making nature into infrastructure. In particular, different valuation methods (i.e. the use of replacement value vs service value) are at the heart of the conflict between accounting and ecological Knowledge systems. I conclude with a discussion of the political implications of GI’s increasing standardization to fit grey infrastructure Knowledge systems more broadly and the ways that this movement leads to a depoliticization of nature.

the effect of vocational rehabilitation on the employment outcomes of disability insurance beneficiaries new evidence from canada
Research Papers in Economics, 2014Co-Authors: Michele Campolieti, Morley Gunderson, Jeffrey A SmithAbstract:We estimate the effects of the vocational rehabilitation (VR) program run by the Canada Pension Plan Disability Program using administrative data. Identification relies on “selection on observed variables†plus careful comparison group selection and Institutional Knowledge regarding sources of conditional variation in participation.

the effect of vocational rehabilitation on the employment outcomes of disability insurance beneficiaries new evidence from canada
IZA Journal of Labor Policy, 2014Co-Authors: Michele Campolieti, Morley Gunderson, Jeffrey A SmithAbstract:We estimate the effects of the vocational rehabilitation (VR) program run by the Canada Pension Plan Disability Program using administrative data. Identification relies on “selection on observed variables” plus careful comparison group selection and Institutional Knowledge regarding sources of conditional variation in participation. We employ several matching and weighting estimators and emphasize flexible conditioning on variables suggested by theory, the Institutional setup and the literature. We find modest, and imprecisely estimated, impacts on employment outcomes for men and larger, sometimes statistically significant, impacts for women. A formal sensitivity analysis finds our results are quite robust to lingering selection on unobserved variables. I38; J08; J24
