Abstract

Why does a person work? Over the last two decades we have seen exponential growth in research distinguishing three orientations toward work (job, career, calling) and how they bear on who we are and what we do. Our integrative review of this literature highlights an outsized focus on the calling orientation as well as a static view of work orientations in general. More fundamentally, we find consistent evidence in the empirical record contradicting the idea of three, mutually exclusive, work orientations. Instead, we derive an alternative framework, consisting of two orthogonal dimensions (job or calling, and career) yielding four profiles. Using this new framework, we work to resolve prior contradictions, definitional confounds, and erroneous assumptions. Further, we catalog insights pertaining to how and when an individual’s work orientation changes over time, including identifying four key drivers (learning, affect, hardship, and their relationships). We conclude by offering an updated agenda for future research, including a need for career orientation research to catch up with our knowledge of calling, an embrace of variance (and moderation) in sampling, more consideration of temporal variation, as well as situating work orientations in organizational practices and a rapidly changing world.

Abstract

Indigenous Peoples and contexts have offered valuable insights to enrich management and organization theories and literature. Yet, despite their growing prevalence and impact, these insights have not been compiled and synthesized comprehensively. With this article, we provide a systematic and thorough analysis of Indigenous management and organization studies research published over a 90-year period (1932–2021), and synthesize this body of work into a multidimensional framework, exploring the various features and methodological considerations of Indigenous research. Our analysis reveals that the literature in the field remains fragmented and dispersed across many different subfields and publication outlets, making it challenging for researchers to aggregate, synthesize, and build upon prior works. Our framework integrates insights into recurrent themes and provides a common language to further advance this vital field of research.

A Racialized View of Entrepreneurship: A Review and Proposal for Future Research

Abstract

Entrepreneurship research, as with most organizational research, almost always adopts a race neutral lens through which racial inequality is understood as exogenous to organizational theories. This approach is problematic because entrepreneurship is an embedded process and cannot be understood independent of its contexts, and the contexts in which it unfolds are often marked by racial inequality despite the apparent absence of overt racial antipathy. We examine more than 100 articles that address entrepreneurship and race, with a focus on underrepresented minorities in the United States: African, Hispanic, and Native Americans. From these articles, we not only derive why minority entrepreneurs continue to be disadvantaged despite widespread support for their entrepreneurship, but we also elevate themes of racial agency endemic to entrepreneurship from marginalized racial positions. We argue that entrepreneurship research needs to consider race; that is, scholars need to incorporate racialized structures into their theorizing. Doing so not only will highlight the structural underpinnings of racial disadvantage for underrepresented minority entrepreneurs, but it also casts entrepreneurship as an essential mechanism for racial agency.

Abstract

As a substantial amount of research has accumulated on the harmful consequences of workplace aggression for target employees, we believe it is now of particular importance to examine moderators that alleviate or amplify these harmful effects. We ask the following questions: For whom is workplace aggression more, or less, detrimental? Moreover, what can target employees and the organization do to mitigate the harmful effects of aggression? We propose to address these questions with an integrative review of empirical research on moderators of the harmful effects of workplace aggression on targets. In this review, we identify and illustrate five broad perspectives that existing research has primarily used to explain the moderating effects: resource-depletion, social-relational, appraisal, self-regulation, and social-influence perspectives. In addition, we identify a large number of moderators and synthesize them into three categories of individual moderators—trait-based, intrapersonal, and coping-based—and three categories of contextual moderators—collective, interpersonal, and job-based. We address research findings on each category of moderators organized around the theoretical perspectives. We conclude with a general discussion of an overarching summary, redundant and saturated findings, as well as research gaps and future directions.

Organizational Experience and Performance: A Systematic Review and Contingency Framework

Abstract

Organizational experience is generally expected to have a positive effect on subsequent task performance. However, research over the past two decades has recognized an increasing number of circumstances in which the performance effects of experience are less clear or even negative. Given the inconclusive evidence on the nature of the experience–performance relationship, we conduct a systematic review and synthesize previously unconnected streams of literature on the organizational experience–performance relationship into a contingency framework on how the applicability, accessibility, and adoption of experiential knowledge jointly moderate the commonly assumed positive effect of organizational experience on performance in a focal task. Based on our integrative contingency framework, we identify important gaps in our understanding of these boundary conditions and develop a research agenda to expand our understanding of organizational experience effects on organizational performance.
