Glenn Withiam talks to Michael McCall about his and co-author Clay Voorhees' article in the Feb 2010 issue of Cornell Hospitality Quarterly entitled, "The Drivers of Loyalty Program Success: An Organizing Framework and Research Agenda."Despite the proliferation of loyalty programs over the past three decades, evidence regarding their effectiveness in cementing customer loyalty remains mixed and often inconsistent. The current lack of understanding of what factors drive a successful loyalty program represents an important knowledge gap. This podcast addresses this question.
Organizations are currently facing the retirement of many older workers and the challenge of recruiting and retaining young talent. However, few studies have empirically substantiated generational differences in work values. This study examines the work values of a nationally representative sample of U.S. high school seniors in 1976, 1991, and 2006 (N = 16,507) representing Baby Boomers, Generation X (GenX), and Generation Me (GenMe, also known as GenY, or Millennials).In this podcast, Talya Bauer, Editor of Journal of Management and Jean Twenge, lead author discuss the results of this study.

Glenn Withiam talks to Tim Hinkin and Bruce Tracey about their article in the May 2010 issue of Cornell Hospitality Quarterly entitled, "What Makes It So Great? An Analysis of Human Resources Practices among Fortune's Best Companies to Work For." Although few hospitality organizations are listed in the annual survey of Fortune magazine's one hundred best companies to work for, an analysis of companies with similar operating challenges provides clear direction for hospitality and service companies' human resource practices. The authors discuss the study which examined twenty-one companies, including one food-service firm (Starbucks) and three hotel chains (Four Seasons, Kimpton, and Marriott).

The issue of a published literature not representative of the population of research is most often discussed in terms of entire studies being suppressed. However, alternative sources of publication bias are questionable research practices (QRPs) that entail post hoc alterations of hypotheses to support data or post hoc alterations of data to support hypotheses. Using general strain theory as an explanatory framework, we outline the means, motives, and opportunities for researchers to better their chances of publication independent of rigor and relevance. We then assess the frequency of QRPs in management research by tracking differences between dissertations and their resulting journal publications. Our primary finding is that from dissertation to journal article, the ratio of supported to unsupported hypotheses more than doubled (0.82 to 1.00 versus 1.94 to 1.00). The rise in predictive accuracy resulted from the dropping of statistically nonsignificant hypotheses, the addition of statistically significant hypotheses, the reversing of predicted direction of hypotheses, and alterations to data. We conclude with recommendations to help mitigate the problem of an unrepresentative literature that we label the “Chrysalis Effect.” http://jom.sagepub.com/content/early/recent
