A Blessing in Disguise: Logic (In)Compatibility, Centrality, and Social Innovation in Hybrid Social Ventures
研究混合社会企业中制度逻辑的不兼容性与中心性如何相互作用，影响社会创新。发现中心性对逻辑不兼容与社会创新的倒U型关系有正向调节作用，且创业导向部分中介这一效应。
Multiple institutional logics can create problematic tensions—and synergies catalyzing innovation. This study examines when and how organizational hybridity—the interaction between logic incompatibility and centrality—fosters innovation. Survey and expert evaluation data from 318 social ventures (SVs) supported a mediated moderation model. Perceived centrality of social–market logics exerts opposite moderating effects: Centrality amplifies the inverted U-shaped relationship between logic incompatibility and social innovation, an effect that entrepreneurial orientation (EO) partially mediates. However, centrality weakens the inverted U-shaped relationship between incompatibility and EO. These findings provide nuanced, novel insights into hybrid organizing and social innovation, highlighting the unique trade-offs SVs face.
