What is boundary work ?

Boundaries are tools that demarcate entities or worlds, and they help maintain self-protection, emphasize legitimacy, and enable many other things to happen because of their capacity to separate or bring particular people, objects, and ideas into new configurations. Boundary work is activity related to creating, maintaining or configuring boundaries.

How Investors Shape Corporate Waste Management

As environmental sustainability gains prominence, institutional investors are increasingly recognized for their influence on corporate environmental practices. This study investigates how institutional investors' ownership and investment horizon affect corporate waste management in France. The results reveal that long-term (short-term) institutional investors negatively (positively) affect waste generation. We also show that the effect of long-term institutional investors on waste generation has accentuated after the adoption of the French Law on the Energy Transition in 2015 , especially for firms with high environmental performance and strong corporate governance and those operating in environmentally sensitive industries. These results offer actionable insights for policymakers, investors, and managers seeking to promote sustainable waste management practices.

Managing the client portfolio for long-term survival

Our goal was to understand the effectiveness of a company in attracting its customer targets. To do this, we have developed a model that links a company’s marketing activities to the mix of customers who buy from the company. Most marketing models simply ask how a company’s marketing activities influence the number of customers who buy the brand. We wondered how a company’s marketing activities influence the types of customers who buy the brand.

What are Targeting Algorithms?

Not-for-profit organizations have long faced the challenge of balancing budgets when they simultaneously seek to retain and recruit new donors. In principle, existing donors can be targeted based on their previous donation data. However, for new donors, this data is not available or may be difficult to obtain from secondary sources. What should non-profit organizations do? We suggest 2 alternatives.

Should Robotic Warehouses Consider Customer Fairness?

Robotic warehouses have transformed logistics, prioritizing speed and efficiency. However, traditional static priority systems often leave low-priority customers facing excessive delays, raising concerns about fairness. This research, based on Invia, a robotic warehouse company, proposes a dynamic priority allocation model to balance efficiency and fairness. By adjusting order priorities over time, this approach ensures that both high-priority and long-waiting low-priority orders receive timely fulfillment. Through stochastic modeling and simulations, we demonstrate that dynamic prioritization reduces delays compared to static and first-come, first-served (FCFS) models. Case studies in e-commerce and healthcare logistics illustrate the broader impact of fairness in automation. As industries increasingly rely on AI-driven decision-making, the balance between efficiency and equity becomes critical. This research challenges the assumption that robotic warehouses should optimize for speed alone and advocates for a future where fairness plays a central role in automated commerce.

Artificial Intelligence in recruitment : Is ethics a lever for Business Attractiveness?

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.
