“…Although the relative modifying influence of various endogenous (e.g., work unit size, level of management, and lateral interdependence) forces on the nature of managerial work has been widely studied (see Yukl, 2002), pressures exogenous to the organization have garnered less empirical attention (Martinko & Gardner, 1990). Prior research has explored differences in the work-related activity patterns of public, private not-for-profit, and for-profit managers (Boyne, 2002;Rawls, Ullrich, & Nelson, 1975), fields of professional practice (Preston, 2008;Raymond, Teare, & Atherton, 1996), types of organizations (Johnson & Forrest, 1983), and their production and service outputs (Bowen & Ford, 2002). One exogenous factor that has received minimal systematic exploration is office location.…”
