When do generalists change more than specialists? Problem-driven and slack-driven change in labor allocation
探究通才型与专才型组织在劳动资源配置上的变化倾向，发现专才更受问题驱动而通才更受冗余驱动，基于韩国农业行业实证数据。
The existing literature has reached contradictory empirical conclusions regarding the tendency for generalist and specialist organizations to change their status quo. Some have posited that generalists are less likely to change than specialists, while others have posited the opposite. This article explores when generalists and specialists change their allocations of labor resources by delving into two different mechanisms: (1) how they perform (problem-driven mechanism) and (2) how much extra resources they possess (slack-driven mechanism). Based on empirical evidence collected in the agricultural industry in South Korea, we find that specialists are more likely to change in accordance with a problem-driven mechanism, whereas generalists are more prone to react to a slack-driven mechanism.
