Understanding the Life Cycles of Entrepreneurial Teams and Their Ventures: An Agenda for Future Research
提出一个“双生命周期框架”,涵盖创业团队的形成、协作和解散阶段,并探讨这些阶段如何嵌入企业生命周期,为未来研究提供建议。
While research on entrepreneurial teams has flourished over the past two decades, it has mainly taken a static perspective, neglecting the developments both teams and their ventures undergo over time. To address this issue, we develop a “double life cycle framework” covering entrepreneurial teams’ formation, collaboration, and dissolution phases as well as potential nonlinear sequences of these phases. While this team life cycle is embedded in the venture life cycle, both life cycles can progress independently. We offer research suggestions on entrepreneurial team formation, collaboration, and dissolution in each venture phase, highlighting the role of entrepreneurial teams in advancing their ventures.
