The Organizational Pervasiveness of Entrepreneurial Orientation
研究了创业导向如何在组织内部沿层级、业务单元和时间三个维度不均匀渗透,提出三种动态渗透模型,帮助理解创业作为组织现象。
While 30 years of entrepreneurial orientation (EO) research has demonstrated that EO provides critical insights into questions of organizational–level strategy and performance, how EO manifests inside organizations has received little attention. Instead of assuming that EO is homogenous, we examine the questions of how and why EO might pervade organizations heterogeneously along three dimensions: vertically across hierarchy levels, horizontally across business units, and temporally as an organization develops. We then present three models for how EO can dynamically pervade organizations and discuss how examining the pervasiveness of EO can further our understanding of entrepreneurship as an organizational phenomenon.
