Are there any factual allegations on that page? All I could find was "the method described in the paper is not the method the authors actually used", without any elaboration.

I'll add that the reaction of most of academia will be "It's in a management journal - of course it's nonsense."

Management Studies is the top management journal, it is highly regarded and would count as fairly prestigious in e.g. tenure applications.
It is elaborated on in the first linked article in this one, under the section "Research Integrity Offices (Part 1)".
