Digital Machines, Space, and Time: Towards a Behavioral Perspective of Flexible Manufacturing Paolo Aversa, Marco Formentini, Daniela Iubatti and Gianni Lorenzoni kHUB post date: March 12, 2021 Originally published: June 3, 2020 (PDMA JPIM • Vol 38, Issue 1 • January 2021) Read time: 45 minutes Access the Full Article Recently, the diffusion of digital machines has further enhanced firms’ manufacturing flexibility, but also opened questions on potential challenges and implications in the production process. To respond to these timely issues, this study adopts a behavioral perspective and comparatively explores how four different types of digital machines—characterized by increasing degrees of manufacturing flexibility—affect the perception and use of space and time for routines within the production plant. To this end, 45 digital manufacturing machines, sampled across 14 firms in the British and Italian motorsport industry, were qualitatively observed and compared. A model emerges where four key mechanisms reshape (1) the interactive space around the machine, (2) the innovation activities performed in the machine space, (3) the time within activities involving the machine, and (4) the time perception

A Time to Consider, a Time to Deliver: The Independent and Interactive Effects of Regulatory Mode on Innovative Work Behavior Haixin Liu, Alex L. Rubenstein, Guiquan Li, Zhaoyan Liu, Xiaojun Zhan, and Jie Xiong kHUB post date: October 5, 2022 Originally published: February 2, 2022 (PDMA JPIM • Vol 39 • Issue 2 • March 2022) Read time: 80 minutes Access the Full Article Although innovative work behavior (IWB) is essential to organizational success and survival, little is known about its dispositional antecedents. In this study, we invoke regulatory mode theory to examine the independent and interactive effects of two regulatory orientations, assessment and locomotion, on three aspects of employee IWB: idea generation, promotion, and realization
