A model of middle-level managers' entrepreneurial behavior Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Middlelevel managers entrepreneurial behavior is linked to successful corporate entrepreneurship. Herein, we integrate knowledge about corporate entrepreneurship and middlelevel managers behaviors to develop and explore a conceptual model. The model depicts the organizational antecedents of middlelevel managers entrepreneurial behavior, the entrepreneurial actions describing that behavior, and outcomes of that behavior as well as factors influencing its continuance. Following discussion of the model's contents, we describe its potential value for researchers and those engaging in corporate entrepreneurship.
