    Is Public Ownership Bad for Professional Service Firms? Ad Agency Ownership, Performance, and Creativity (2006)

    Content: Does public ownership have negative consequences for professional service firms by reducing employee incentives? I address this question with a panel of advertising agencies. Public ownership was associated with inferior performance for small agencies but not for large agencies; and there was no association between ownership and agency creativity, indicating that public ownership did not preclude agencies from competing with strategies requiring highly-skilled professionals. The results challenge existing theories of the ownership models of professional service firms

    Firm Size and Industry Structure under Human Capital Intensity : Insights from the Evolution of the Global Advertising Industry (2011)

    Content: Although existing literature assumes that the human capital intensity of professional services leads to small and flimsy firms, several professional services feature large, long-lived firms. To develop insights about firm size and industry structure in human capital intensive industries, I analyze the structure and evolution of the advertising industry. Drawing on a range of quantitative and qualitative evidence, I develop two hypotheses regarding the industry's structure and consolidation: (1) size differentiation, in which firm size and industry structure are connected to the size distribution of clients' projects; and (2) financial intermediation, in which the industry's consolidation is ascribed to organizational innovations that mitigate transaction costs between external investors and ad agency owners. I then discuss the applicability of these two hypotheses to other professional services. The analysis suggests several new insights about the value of capital, the nature of demand, and the nature of assets in human capital intensive industries

    Content: A growing literature on professional service firms is hindered by the ambiguity of its central concept, which leads to an overly-narrow empirical focus and to over-generalizations that may tout inefficiencies as best practice. To address this ambiguity, I develop a theory of the distinctive characteristics of professional service firms and their organizational implications. I identify three distinctive characteristics--knowledge intensity, low capital intensity, and professionalized workforce - with which I propose a taxonomy of four types of knowledge intensive firms - Classic PSFs, Professional Campuses, Neo-PSFs, and Technology Developers - whose varying degrees of professional service intensity predict different organizational features. The analysis highlights the danger of conflating the implications of professionalization with those of knowledge intensity and calls for comparative research across a wider range of professional services

    The Public Corporation - Friend or Foe of Professional Ethics? Ownership and Ethics in Securities Brokerage (2011)
    [S.l.] : SSRN

    Content: Professions have long debated the desirability of outside investment and public ownership in particular. The traditional view holds that outside investors undermine professional ethics, and this fear underpins bans on public ownership. Others argue such restrictions are a way to reduce competition and that public ownership may improve adherence to professional ethics. I address this debate both conceptually and empirically. Conceptually, I develop several arguments both “for” and “against” public ownership and its effect on professionally ethical behavior. I also identify hypotheses to distinguish among these various arguments. Empirically, I test the hypotheses by assessing the incidence of professionally unethical behavior in the US securities industry across different ownership modes. I measure unethical behavior with a database of broker-client disputes resolved through arbitration. Using models with firm fixed effects to partially mitigate endogeneity concerns, I find that transitions to public ownership are followed by higher rates of ethical violations. Additional findings suggest the adverse effect on ethical behavior arises either because of public investors' short-term preferences or the visibility of public firms' performance. The results suggest that the regulators of a profession might indeed want to be cautious about liberalizing ownership rules or at least design disclosure and monitoring policies that acknowledge a greater risk of ethical violations at public firms. Public ownership should also be investigated as a predictor of organizational misconduct more broadly

    Commercial Success and Creativity : A Resource Dependence View (2020)

    Content: Does commercial success diminish creativity? With arguments both for and against, the question remains one the biggest of puzzles in the study of creativity. In this paper, using novel measures of creativity and success, we identify the causal impact of success on subsequent levels of creativity. While exploration/exploitation framework predicts an increase in exploitation (lower creativity) after success a resource dependence perspective points out that commercial success might facilitate greater creative risk-taking by enhancing access to important complementary resources. We find that creativity decreases after commercial success. More specifically, creativity risk goes down by a 1/3 standard deviation after a successful movie. Creativity does not go down for filmmakers with family connections in the industry because they are disproportionately more likely to retain their popularity and access to financial and other resources than directors without such connections. We conclude with the methodological and theoretical contributions of the study and discuss its implications on policy and practice for creativity and innovation management
