Download or read book Revisiting the Foundations of Organizational Distrust written by Shiau-Ling Guo and published by Now Publishers. This book was released on 2017-02-16 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revisiting the Foundations of Organizational Distrust systematically discuss the theoretical perspectives on the relationship between distrust and trust, highlights the potential research opportunities and challenges pertinent to distrust studies, and draws implications of distrust research for strategic management. The literature on distrust has grown substantially since the beginning of the 1960s. One initial observation is that the extant research uses many different definitions and perspectives on distrust, and this diversity exacerbates the fragmentation of the literature. The variety of perspectives on distrust only re-emphasizes the necessity of gaining a better understanding of how distrust links to and distinguishes itself from trust before exploring the prospect and challenges of distrust research, particularly for scholars in strategic management. More specifically, it is crucial to draw attention to the novel insights that distrust studies may bring about for strategic management and organizational theory scholars. The analysis is organized into six parts: (1) discussing extant research on distrust in organizational settings; (2) examining various theoretical perspectives on the relationship between trust and distrust; (3) illustrating the extant empirical evidence of the relationship between trust and distrust; (4) considering the potential role of distrust in relationship repair; (5) pointing out specific research avenues in strategy areas; and (6) highlighting empirical challenges of studying distrust in organizational settings. Based on an examination of existing research on distrust in organizational settings in the first section, the authors extend the discussion to various theoretical perspectives and empirical evidence of the relationship between trust and distrust in the following sections. The authors also suggest specific promising research opportunities and challenges of distrust studies in the last three sections. As distrust spans many different research areas, Revisiting the Foundations of Organizational Distrust should be of interest to scholars in management as well as in the sociology of organizations and organizational psychology.

Download or read book Multilevel Trust in Organizations written by Ashley Fulmer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trust—whether it is between individuals, within teams, or between organizations—is embedded in a multilevel system where the environment and member interactions jointly affect trust at any level. Yet research on trust at different levels of analysis has largely developed independently with little cross-fertilization. This book brings together six chapters that take levels effects explicitly into account to extend our current knowledge about the dynamics of trust. The chapters examine diverse issues including theoretical and practical implications of multilevel trust, temporal dynamics of trust and how to model it, the mutually influencing relationship between interpersonal trust and organizational structures, and trust in specific contexts such as merger, public market, and economic downturn. By adopting the multilevel approach, these chapters provide more nuanced and realistic insights on trust and yield knowledge that otherwise may be erroneous or unattainable. Together, they illustrate unique challenges and opportunities for understanding trust in the changing landscape of work relationships. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Trust Research.
Download or read book System Trust written by Patrick Sumpf and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frequently enabled by digitalization, great transformations are taking place in socio-technical systems such as energy, telecommunications, and mobility. These transformations indicate widespread shifts in societal infrastructure systems, rearranging relations between governments, industries, NGOs, and consumers. In this context, the question of trust in systems – as introduced by sociologists Luhmann, Coleman and Giddens – acquires new urgency, as yet uncommented upon in trust research, or socio-technical systems debates. Focusing on the energy sector, Patrick Sumpf analyzes the meanings of system and trust to develop a framework for both theoretical and empirical research, which is synthesized into an “Architecture of Trust” in systems.

Download or read book Trust and Distrust In Organizations written by Roderick M. Kramer and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2004-04-29 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effective functioning of a democratic society—including social, business, and political interactions—largely depends on trust. Yet trust remains a fragile and elusive resource in many of the organizations that make up society's building blocks. In their timely volume, Trust and Distrust in Organizations, editors Roderick M. Kramer and Karen S. Cook have compiled the most important research on trust in organizations, illuminating the complex nature of how trust develops, functions, and often is thwarted in organizational settings. With contributions from social psychologists, sociologists, political scientists, economists, and organizational theorists, the volume examines trust and distrust within a variety of settings—from employer-employee and doctor-patient relationships, to geographically dispersed work teams and virtual teams on the internet. Trust and Distrust in Organizations opens with an in-depth examination of hierarchical relationships to determine how trust is established and maintained between people with unequal power. Kurt Dirks and Daniel Skarlicki find that trust between leaders and their followers is established when people perceive a shared background or identity and interact well with their leader. After trust is established, people are willing to assume greater risks and to work harder. In part II, the contributors focus on trust between people in teams and networks. Roxanne Zolin and Pamela Hinds discover that trust is more easily established in geographically dispersed teams when they are able to meet face-to-face initially. Trust and Distrust in Organizations moves on to an examination of how people create and foster trust and of the effects of power and betrayal on trust. Kimberly Elsbach reports that managers achieve trust by demonstrating concern, maintaining open communication, and behaving consistently. The final chapter by Roderick Kramer and Dana Gavrieli includes recently declassified data from secret conversations between President Lyndon Johnson and his advisors that provide a rich window into a leader's struggles with problems of trust and distrust in his administration. Broad in scope, Trust and Distrust in Organizations provides a captivating and insightful look at trust, power, and betrayal, and is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the underpinnings of trust within a relationship or an organization. A Volume in the Russell Sage Foundation Series on Trust
Download or read book Trust and Happiness in the History of European Political Thought written by Laszlo Kontler and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notions of happiness and trust as cements of the social fabric and political legitimacy have a long history in Western political thought. However, despite the great contemporary relevance of both subjects, and burgeoning literatures in the social sciences around them, historians and historians of thought have, with some exceptions, unduly neglected them. In Trust and Happiness in the History of European Political Thought, editors László Kontler and Mark Somos bring together twenty scholars from different generations and academic traditions to redress this lacuna by contextualising historically the discussion of these two notions from ancient Greece to Soviet Russia. Confronting this legacy and deep reservoir of thought will serve as a tool of optimising the terms of current debates. Contributors are: Erica Benner, Hans W. Blom, Niall Bond, Alberto Clerici, Cesare Cuttica, John Dunn, Ralf-Peter Fuchs, Gábor Gángó, Steven Johnstone, László Kontler, Sara Lagi, Adriana Luna-Fabritius, Adrian O’Connor, Eva Odzuck, Kálmán Pócza, Vladimir Ryzhkov, Peter Schröder, Petra Schulte, Mark Somos, Alexey Tikhomirov, Bee Yun, and Hannes Ziegler.
