Item type:Publication, The Role of Entrepreneurial Resource Mobilization for the Effectiveness of Strategic Orientations in Small Ventures: A Configurational PerspectiveStrategic orientations have been highlighted as important drivers of venture performance. While sustainable and innovative strategic orientations may contribute to venture performance, pursuing them entails complex resource demands that are challenging to address, particularly for small ventures. In this study, we argue that it depends on the entrepreneurial resource mobilization approach whether small ventures can realize the potential performance benefits from pursuing sustainability orientation and innovativeness as strategic alternatives or complements. Following a three-stage configurational theorizing approach, we applied fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to a sample of 403 UK ventures. Our findings advance understanding of the role of entrepreneurial resource mobilization for the effectiveness of strategic orientations in small ventures. Specifically, we contribute to theorizing of entrepreneurial resource mobilization as a cognitive-behavioural approach by disentangling the role of resource-induced coping heuristics and by highlighting how they interact with bricolage to address the complex resourcing demands of sustainability orientation and innovativeness.Type:journal articleJournal:British Journal of ManagementVolume:37 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Establishing a Recovery Menu to Increase the Resilience of Entrepreneurs(2025-07-10); Zhou, HaiboBuilding on the Effort Recovery Model and Conservation of Resources Theory, this study provides new theoretical and empirical insights into how entrepreneurs increase their resilience by engaging in recovery experiences. Employing a longitudinal repeated survey design applied to 346 entrepreneurs, our findings reveal that control is the only recovery experience that directly influences resilience. We also uncover more complex indirect pathways through positive reappraisal and sleep. Overall, the study demonstrates that each recovery experience has a unique relationship with resilience, allowing us to theorize potential underlying mechanisms for how recovery translates into resilience. We offer practical suggestions for effective interventions addressing the recovery paradox in entrepreneurship during times of change and uncertainty.Type:journal articleJournal:British Journal of ManagementVolume:37Scopus© Citations 12 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Parental divorce in early life and entrepreneurial performance in adulthood(2024-05); ; ; We examine how parental divorce in early life affects performance in entrepreneurship in adulthood. Drawing on life course theory and empirical analyses of US self-employment and childhood data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, we show that entrepreneurs’ experience of parental divorce in childhood benefits their entrepreneurial performance in adulthood through a gain in self-efficacy while simultaneously suppressing entrepreneurial performance through a shortfall in human capital. We also show that whether the performance advantages or disadvantages from parental divorce dominate depends on parental human capital. While parental divorce is associated with underperformance for entrepreneurs whose parents have high levels of human capital, it is positively related to entrepreneurial performance for those with low parental human capital. Our study contributes new theory and evidence on the intertemporal relationship between past family contexts and present entrepreneurial performance.Type:journal articleJournal:Journal of Business VenturingVolume:39Issue:3Scopus© Citations 6 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Ethical Orientation and Research Misconduct Among Business Researchers Under the Condition of Autonomy and CompetitionThe topics of ethical conduct and governance in academic research in the business field have attracted scientific and public attention. The concern is that research misconduct in organizations such as business schools and universities might result in practitioners, policymakers, and researchers grounding their decisions on biased research results. This study addresses ethical research misconduct by investigating whether the ethical orientation of business researchers is related to the likelihood of research misconduct, such as selective reporting of research findings. We distinguish between deontological and consequentialist ethical orientations and the competition between researchers and investigate the moderating role of their perceived autonomy. Based on global data collected from 1,031 business scholars, we find that researchers with a strong deontological ethical orientation are less prone to misconduct. This effect is robust against different levels of perceived autonomy and competition. In contrast, researchers having a consequentialist ethical orientation is positively associated with misconduct in business research. High levels of competition in the research environment reinforce this effect. Our results reveal a potentially toxic combination comprising researchers with a strong consequentialist orientation who are embedded in highly competitive research environments. Our research calls for the development of ethical orientations grounded on maxims rather than anticipated consequences among researchers. We conclude that measures for ethical governance in business schools should consider the ethical orientation that underlies researchers’ decision-making and the organizational and institutional environment in which business researchers are embedded.Type:journal articleJournal:Journal of Business EthicsVolume:183Scopus© Citations 15 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Employee Resilience: Considering both the Social side and the Economic Side of Leader-Follower Exchanges in Conjunction with the Dark Side of Followers’ PersonalityThe aim of this study is to propose and empirically test theorizing on the alignment of social and economic leader-member (SLMX and ELMX) approaches for employee resilience. Additionally, we explore a new approach to LMX relationships that views follower narcissism as a trait that is adaptive in certain contexts. The findings of our polynomial regression analysis with surface response analysis indicate that for LMX to optimally contribute to employee resilience, SLMX needs to dominate over ELMX. However, for narcissistic followers, employee resilience is strongest at both the low SLMX-low ELMX end of the spectrum and at the high SLMX-high ELMX end of the spectrum, thus questioning the usefulness of an average or imbalanced shaping of LMX for narcissists’ thriving in a dynamic organizational environment. Our findings imply that by developing and nurturing reciprocal trust-based long-term relations with their followers, leaders can strengthen employee resilience. When being confronted with narcissistic followers, leaders need to either embrace an ambidextrous approach additionally emphasizing the transactional nature of the relationship, or a laissez-faire approach to foster employees’ effective dealing with change and setbacks at work.Type:journal articleJournal:International Journal of Human Resource ManagementVolume:33Issue:2Scopus© Citations 46 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
