Ex‐Post Innovation Profile of LBO Targets: Evidence from CIS Data for the Netherlands

Different strategies for innovation lead to specific profiles of new board members in terms of human and social capital, which shows that board selection is a strategic answer for innovation. Studying 735 French companies, we show the influence of four types of innovation strategies on the human capital (education and experience) and social capital (relationships) of new board members. Results show that specific strategies for innovation require specific profiles on board, which emphasizes the importance of board capital requirements for supporting innovation strategies.

Organizational growth has been studied extensively, leading to a growing reference to the concept of entrepreneurial growth (EG). However, the construct of EG is unclear, leading us to conduct a systematic literature review. Utilizing Organizational Change Framework, we reviewed and categorized articles on this subject. Aligning with the Four Disciplines of Execution, we found that when EG is used as a process, it is unique and robust for building a strategy used by both new and established firms and facilitating future entrepreneurship research. Implications and future research directions are discussed.
