Attaining Legitimacy in Temporary Business: The Case of New Entrepreneurs in the Television Industry
通过对英国独立电视制作行业81个项目的5年研究,发现新创业者通过利用项目的不同角色并排序来构建合法性,从而在频繁变化的临时业务环境中发展业务。
This work seeks to identify behavioral processes that new entrepreneurs can adopt to construct legitimacy in frequently changing temporary business environments. Focusing on independent television content production in the UK, the study finds that new entrepreneurs exploit the varying roles that their projects can play and then sequence these in order to tailor the legitimacy they need to build their business. This research draws on a 5-year inductive study of 81 projects won by entrepreneurs of five new independent television production companies.
