Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: International Review of Administrative Sciences Description: 90(2), Jun, 2024: p.480-509.Subject(s): public organizations, quasi-governmental organizations In: International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: This study has examined the impacts of top executives’ discretion on organizational performance in public organizations. We analyzed longitudinally collected data from quasi-governmental organizations in Korea. The results show that top executives’ managerial discretion has an inverted U-shape relationship with the overall performance of organizations. The marginal effect of top executives’ discretion on organizational performance was negative. This suggests that the benefits from top executives’ discretion decrease as the level of managerial discretion increases. The greater discretion of top executives in project management was more likely to yield desirable outcomes for organizations. Top executives’ discretion did not significantly affect customer satisfaction and transparency of organizations.- Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/00208523231197943
