Managers’ exploration activities and individual unlearning: the mediating role of learning orientation and reflection

Abstract

The main goal of this study was to investigate the effects of managers’ exploration activities on learning orientation, reflection, and unlearning of team members. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 115 employees in 23 teams from a Japanese pharmaceutical company. The results of multi-level analyses suggest that managers’ exploration activities had a direct influence on team members’ learning orientations, which subsequently had a positive influence on their unlearning, with and without the mediation of reflection. These findings suggest that a subordinate’s unlearning is driven by managers’ activities through motivational and cognitive processes. The theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed.     

Non-commitment in performance evaluation and the problem of information distortions

Auditing is modeled in a sequential game without commitment. The manager must decide whether and where to audit a worker's output, taking into account all interim information he has obtained. The worker will work just hard enough (and show it) to divert the manager from making an audit or cover up, withholding information about his work to make an audit more difficult. This usually raises the costs of setting work incentives, so incentives are softened, sometimes drastically. Moreover, when a worker's on-the-job information is valuable for entrepreneurial decisions, work incentives must be softened to improve the internal flow of information.     

论高科技条件下的劳动价值创造与价值分配

中德反不正当竞争法之比较

德国是现代反不正当竞争法的发源地。 1 896年德国制定了世界上第一部专门的《反不正当竞争法》 ,后经若干次修订 ,至今仍对促进德国经济的发展起着举足轻重的作用 ;1 993年中国颁布第一部专门的竞争法律《反不正当竞争法》 ,至今已运行近 1 0年。比较两国在不正当竞争行为的概念和类型、适用除外制度、法律责任等方面的特点 ,给我们有益的启示 ,我国在完善《反不正当竞争法》的同时 ,应协调好与《反垄断法》的关系     

项目教学法在机械装配与维修专业中应用的研究

项目教学法是以建构主义理论为基础,通过选取"项目"来创设"情景",通过"协作学习"的方式开展学习,通过完成"项目"来达到"意义建构",是一种比较有效的教学方法。本文对在机械装配与维修专业中实施项目教学法进行了研究,并对整个教学方案进行了设计,为下一步实施项目教学奠定了理论基础。

吕留良与张履祥交往研究

吕、张彼此敬佩对方的道德文章,皆服膺程朱理学,这是他们结交的思想基础。他们的交往活动丰富多彩,涉及诗书传道、编刻撰述、问医救人、诗酒唱和、学术交流诸多方面,呈现出偏重文学和学术的特点。他们的交往由亲至疏,最终友谊破裂,缘于二人儒士观、时文观和交友观的不同。
