Firm Profitability, State Ownership, and Top Management Turnover at the Listed Firms in China: A Behavioral Perspective (2009, unknown): “Although this practice is widely adopted in research on the behavioral theory of organizational search (Greve, 2003b), we encourage researchers to survey top managers directly about their performance target.”
Organizational responses to performance feedback: A meta-analytic review (2019, methodology): “We labeled a relationship as examining product innovation if it investigated how firms introduce new products or technologies to the market (Greve, 2003c; Nohria and Gulati, 1996).”
Managerial Risk, Innovation, and Organizational Decline (2009, background): “One distinct stream of literature calls attention to managers’ reliance on firm innovation as a solution to organizational decline (Audia & Greve, 2006; Barker & Mone,1998; Greve, 2003; Mone, McKinley, & Barker, 1998; Wiseman & Bromiley, 1996).”
Slack Resources and the Performance of Privately Held Firms (2005, unknown): “Some researchers have noted that explanations for the influence of different forms of slack on performance do not articulate a priori arguments but tend to present post hoc rationalizations (Deephouse & Wiseman, 2000; Greve, 2003).”
Learning Sequences: Their Existence, Effect, and Evolution (2012, background): “…discussed in the literature, trial-and-error learning, is defined as the process by which firm executives undertake a course of action, and the consequences of that completed action lead to change in the firm's action or knowledge base (Argyris & Schön, 1978; Baum & Dahlin, 2007; Greve, 2003).”
A Behavioral Theory of R&D Expenditures and Innovations: Evidence from Shipbuilding (2003, unknown): “wide range of organizational behaviors (Greve, 2003).”
CEOs’ Regulatory Focus and Risk-Taking When Firms Perform Below and Above the Bar (2021, methodology): “While BTOF gives primacy to executives, their risk preferences are assumed to be preordained, such that executives are risk-seeking when performance is below aspirations and risk-averse when performance is above aspirations (Greve, 1998, 2003a; March & Shapira, 1992).”
Dancing with Strangers: Aspiration Performance and the Search for Underwriting Syndicate Partners (2005, unknown): “A variety of functional forms, mainly differing in whether the propensity decreases faster or slower above or below the aspiration level, have been proposed for the relationship between aspiration performance and risk taking (see Greve, 2003b).”
Innovators and imitators: Organizational reference groups and adoption of organizational routines (2005, background): “Greve et al. (2003) formulate a model where life chances of firms increase with”
Organizations Gone Wild: The Causes, Processes, and Consequences of Organizational Misconduct (2010, background): “We think that a better integration of the conflicting results might be achieved by considering the role of managerial aspiration levels (Cyert & March, 1963; Greve, 2003; Harris & Bromiley, 2007).”
Less Likely to Fail: Low Performance, Firm Size, and Factory Expansion in the Shipbuilding Industry (2006, background): “In another study that examines the entire range of low-performance values, Greve (2003a) similarly reported no effect of performance below the aspiration level on the highrisk behavior of launching innovations, but found a positive effect of low performance on the less-risky behavior of increasing…”
