Market-driving strategy (MDS) is defined as influencing the market structure and/or the market players’ behavior in a direction that reinforces a firm’s competitive edge. The objectives of this project are to identify: (1) the main firm-level and market-level outcomes of MDS, (2) mediating mechanisms among those outcomes, and (3) the influence of radical and incremental product innovation capabilities on MDS. A mixed-methods research design is applied, grounded in three complementary studies. Findings suggest that: (a) the firm-level outcomes of MDS are financial and customer performance, organizational reputation, and sustained competitive advantage; (b) radical and incremental product innovation trigger MDS; (c) incremental innovation and organizational reputation are positively related

More organizations use AI in the hiring process than ever before, yet the perceived ethicality of such processes seems to be mixed. With such variation in our views of AI in hiring, we need to understand how these perceptions impact the organizations that use it. In two studies, we investigate how ethical perceptions of using AI in hiring are related to perceptions of organizational attractiveness and innovativeness. Our findings indicate that ethical perceptions of using AI in hiring are positively related to perceptions of organizational attractiveness, both directly and indirectly via perceptions of innovativeness, with variations depending on the type of hiring method used. For instance, we find that individuals who consider it ethical for organizations to use AI in ways often considered to be intrusive to privacy, such as analyzing social media content, view such organizations as both more innovative and attractive.
