Individual‐Level Ambidexterity and Entrepreneurial Entry
研究利用全球创业观察调查数据，发现组织中同时进行探索和利用活动的员工更可能成为创业者，为理解创业进入提供了新视角。
This study examines the organizational drivers of entrepreneurial entry through the lens of individual-level ambidexterity. We theorize that employees that both explore and exploit new activities within organizations are more likely to become entrepreneurs outside the organization. Multilevel analysis results from a large sample of Global Entrepreneurship Monitor survey data support this hypothesis. This study contributes to the entrepreneurship literature by highlighting the role of individuals' prior ambidexterity experiences in organizations as foundational building blocks of entrepreneurial entry. The study links entrepreneurship and ambidexterity theories with evidence that an individual's ambidexterity and entrepreneurial activities are related.
