Abstract: | The authors review studies of organizational demography that show empirical relationships between the length of service (tenure) distribution and organizational outcomes. The authors' theoretical reformulation of the typical explanation offered for these relationships posits a link between heterogeneity in the length of service distribution and heterogeneity in organizational culture. The authors examine the plausibility of this explanation using a computer stimulation of a mathematical model. |
