Nonfamily Managers, Family Firms, and the Winner's Curse: The Influence of Noneconomic Goals and Bounded Rationality (2014, background): “For example, incorporating bounded rationality, not to mention bounded reliability (Verbeke & Greidanus, 2009), into stewardship theory would suggest that monitoring is still necessary to reduce the impact of imperfect and asymmetric information, even though it might not be needed to control…”
At What Level (and in Whom) We Trust (2012, background): “…2003), suggesting that risk and vulnerability with entities outside of the organization may be more salient than those with entities within the organization, an emphasis related to the transaction cost economics theory in research on interorganizational relations (cf. Verbeke & Greidanus, 2009).”
Back to basics: Behavioral theory and internationalization (2020, background): “In practice, MNEs do not always have strong, complementary ties with their subsidiaries (Verbeke, 2009); it is unsurprising that these relationships do not always result in effective knowledge creation and knowledge transfer.”
Exchange hazards, relational reliability, and contracts in China: The contingent role of legal enforceability (2010, background): “As a result, contracts can effectively ease coordination problems that arise from benevolent preferences, such as reprioritization or over commitment (Verbeke and Greidanus, 2009).”
Inter-organizational trust and the dynamics of distrust (2011, result): “point of view of governance theory, this aligns with Verbeke and Greidanus’s recent distinction (2009) between “bounded rationality” and “bounded reliability.”
Global, Local, or Regional? The Locus of MNE Strategies (2016, unknown): “on open ended promises’) inside the home region can also be substantially reduced vis-à-vis outsider regions (Verbeke and Greidanus, 2009).”
