Article Title:
“What increases job satisfaction of doctoral graduates? An empirical study of effects of publication productivity and the timing of the acquisition of the doctoral degree”
Abstract:
What should doctoral graduates do during their doctoral years to obtain satisfying jobs in their subsequent careers? This study empirically explores this question using data from NISTEP’s Japan Doctoral Human Resource Profiling (JD-PRO), a follow-up survey of doctoral graduates from Japanese universities. The results confirm that while the number of dissertations produced has a very limited impact, having a job with a certain link to one’s doctoral research increases satisfaction both in job content and in job conditions. Those who have obtained doctoral degree faster tended to be more likely to have a job with a strong connection to their doctoral research, but the effect of the timing of the acquisition of the doctoral degree was not significantly significant. This suggests that rather than policies to encourage early acquisition of a doctoral degree, it may be better to encourage acquisition of specialized knowledge or skills that have a certain degree of versatility in doctoral research, which may contribute to career development in later years.

“Digital Platform Ecosystem Design: A Configurational Approach to Understanding Heterogeneity in Platform Meta-Organizations”
Speaker:
Ramya K Murthy
(Assistant Professor, Indian Institute of Management Bangalore)
Date:

This forum is jointly organized by MIC (Management Innovation Research Center), Hitotsubashi Institute of Advanced Study.
Abstract:
Platform ecosystem design is vital to attract participants and gain popularity. But, how do the various design elements combine across different types of ecosystems and at different stages of the ecosystem lifecycle? To address this question, we build a configurational model of digital platform design encompassing organization design levers of formal structure, sorting mechanisms, and implementation rights. Using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis, we find three major insights. First, we abductively identify design configurations involving an alignment among the design elements, indicating multiple pathways to popularity. Second, we find that the different ecosystem types have different design configurations with varying degrees of centralization. Finally, we find that the design configurations become more centralized as the ecosystem grows from the incipient to mature stages in the lifecycle.
