Towards Integrating Emotions into Strategic Management Research: Trait Affect and Perceptions of the Strategic Environment
研究了管理者特质负面情感与战略环境感知之间的关联，发现负面情感与组织绩效差、行业复杂性、行业增长和竞争力感知相关，对战略管理中的情绪研究有参考价值。
This paper describes an empirical investigation of the associations between trait negative affect and perceptions of the strategic environment. Data were collected from two samples of managers undertaking a distance learning MBA course (n = 59, n = 272). In the smaller sample, significant correlations were found between negative affectivity and perceptions of poor organizational performance and industry complexity. These results were replicated in the larger sample, after controlling for other variables. Additionally, negative affectivity was found to be related to perceived industry growth, and marginally related to perceived industry competitiveness.
