| Abstract
|
:
|
In an intriguing analysis of how firms evolve in response to performance feedback, Henrich Greve shows that high-performing organizations quickly lower their rates of market entry, innovation and growth, whereas low-performing organizations slowly increase. Greve examines the consequences for survival and performance, suggesting ways to improve organizations with performance feedback.
