The Effect of Organizational Culture on Entrepreneurial Orientation: A Comparison between Germany and Thailand
基于643家德国和泰国公司的数据，分析了组织文化如何影响企业的创业导向，以及国家文化如何调节这一关系。研究发现，灵活型组织文化最能促进创业导向，尤其在个人主义强、权力距离小的国家文化中。
Prior research has emphasized the positive impact of a firm's entrepreneurial orientation on its performance. An unanswered question concerns what organizational antecedents and drivers foster entrepreneurial orientation. Based on a sample of 643 German and Thai companies, this study analyzes how organizational culture influences a firm's entrepreneurial orientation and how this relationship is influenced by national culture. Results show that an organizational culture that is an adhocracy is most effective in advancing entrepreneurial orientation, especially in national cultures that are characterized by strong individualism and low power distance, whereas a hierarchical organizational culture is generally a barrier to entrepreneurial orientation.
