Learning From Senior Leaders as a Catalyst for Innovativeness: The Differential Contributions of Supervisors, Coaches, and Mentors Under Varying Task Uncertainty

Creativity and Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the literature on employees' innovative work behavior (IWB) treats leaders as a homogeneous source of firm‐internal knowledge, we examine how learning from different types of senior leaders (supervisors, coaches, and mentors) differentially affects employees' IWB and how these effects vary with the uncertainty of work tasks.

Abstract We study optimal monopoly pricing of non‐durable goods over two periods when consumer preferences evolve endogenously. We introduce a propensity for a second purchase that defines the influence of the first‐period purchase on the second‐period willingness to pay for the product, reflecting either satiation or habit.
