| Summary: | Organizational slack has long been used to explain diverse organizational phenomena
and has been regarded as one of building blocks of the behavioral theory of the firm. It
has been widely accepted that a comprehensive study to observe the determinants of
slack and its performance outcome is the solution for the unsolved puzzles for slack
creation. However, prior researches have indeed revealed that the determinants of slack
creation itself are yet still inconclusive and the results were ambiguous. The
inconclusive and mixed research on the determinants of slack has been normatively
prescribed due to lack vigorous, robust model and adopted the piecemeal approach to the
measurements of slack creation. |
