This study examines the impact of cash flow on operational efficiency among non-financial firms listed on the Vietnam stock market from 2010 to 2019. Findings show that operating cash flow significantly enhances operational efficiency, as indicated by ROA and ROE, with a more pronounced effect in firms with state ownership. To control for endogeneity, the analysis employs the two-stage least squares and Generalized Method of Moments, confirming the robustness of results across variations in firm

This article explores how cash flow affects the demand for external funding among listed companies in Vietnam during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly under financial constraints. The study develops hypotheses grounded in the self-ranking match theory and relevant literature. Using a dataset of 5,894 observations from 2010 to 2020 and employing a Generalized Least Squares (GLS) regression model, the hypotheses are tested. Findings reveal that cash flow plays a significant role in shaping busin

Organizations increasingly display openness through listening campaigns, speak-up channels, inclusive leadership language, and psychological-safety initiatives. Yet visible opportunities to contribute do not establish that employee concerns shape decisions, receive reasoned responses, or alter organizational practice. This Critical Viewpoint Article examines that gap by distinguishing the performance of psychological safety from the organizational conditions through which voice becomes consequen

Collaboration is indispensable to contemporary organizing, yet its costs are commonly framed as failures of personal prioritization, meeting discipline, or digital self-control. This article develops an original non-empirical conceptual framework that treats collaboration overload as an infrastructure problem produced by organizational defaults governing interdependence, access, meetings, communication channels, visibility, and decision authority. The framework integrates four domains: the found

Distributed leadership is commonly framed as a means of widening participation, mobilizing expertise, and reducing dependence on a single formal leader. Yet distributing influence does not necessarily distribute answerability, emotional maintenance, or coordination work evenly. This Original Propositional Model Article develops the proposed Distributed-Burden Model to explain how leadership distribution may create unequal burdens even when voice and decision opportunity appear broadly shared.

Organizations commonly assess employee engagement through periodic motivation-oriented scores, yet such measures reveal little about how work systems create demands, enable recovery, distribute decision authority, or convert employee effort into sustainable performance. This Original Governance Framework Article develops a proposed Employee Energy-Governance Framework for analyzing those organizational conditions without treating engagement as an individual obligation or a universally beneficial

Digital systems translate knowledge work into data fields, modular tasks, recommendations, rankings, and auditable events. These arrangements can improve coordination and consistency, yet they may also relocate decision authority, reduce exposure to whole-task learning, and make professional responsibility dependent on procedures whose assumptions are difficult to inspect. This Critical Viewpoint Article argues that the problem is not a simple restoration of classical Taylorism, but a conditiona

Digitally mediated work permits organizational activity to cross conventional working-time boundaries with little friction, but technological reach does not establish legitimate authority to demand continuing availability. Existing evidence connects extended availability, response pressure, boundary crossing, and impaired recovery, yet these relationships are heterogeneous and often treated as individual self-management problems. This Original Governance Framework Article develops a non-empirica

Agility is commonly presented as an organizational capacity for sensing change, reallocating resources, and reconfiguring work. Yet when recurrent transformation becomes an institutionalized expectation rather than a bounded response, renewal may weaken the organizational conditions through which prior knowledge remains retrievable, interpretable, and transferable. This original conceptual theory article examines how agility may generate organizational forgetting and memory erosion without assum
