COGNITION, CAPABILITIES, AND INCENTIVES: ASSESSING FIRM RESPONSE TO THE FIBER-OPTIC REVOLUTION.

Kaplan, Sarah·2008·Academy of Management Journal

Abstract

This study examines how CEO cognition, organizational capabilities, and organizational incentives interacted to shape firm strategy during the fiber-optic revolution. I tested for these factors' association with subsequent investment in optical technologies using longitudinal data from 71 communications firms. Results show that each is separately important in shaping outcomes, and their alignment toward the adoption of a new technology leads to the greatest levels of change. In addition, cognition can compensate when organization-level factors are lacking. Considering cognition, capabilities, and incentives together contributes to a more contingent view of the conditions under which CEO cognition matters for firm strategy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
