ABSTRACT

This chapter contains three contributions—two empirical studies on organizational conflict and its effects and theoretical work that deals with the application of organizational justice theory to the domain of consumer behavior. To accommodate to the desiderate of linkage, the articles below also are sorted into four major sections: managing conflict and justice, leadership, social capital, and personality, entrepreneurship and small business, ethics, learning, and change. The chapter investigates the impact of geographic dispersion and team tenure on the link between task and affective conflict. It discusses the concept of "strategic human resource management" that has received increasing attention from practitioners and academics alike. Researchers in the field of behavioral finance argued that individuals' thoughts, perceptions, and fears are displayed in their behavioral actions and judgments and, financially speaking, in their investment choices regarding their risk preferences. A long-standing view in the literature has been that international new ventures are affected by liabilities such as smallness, newness, and foreignness.
