“…Studies have shown that the workforce's perception of the DT-oriented leadership behavior (Srivastava et al, 2023) affects their responses to change, including desirable (affective, cognitive, and behavioral) trust responses and undesirable (affective, cognitive, and behavioral) resistance to change (Weber et al, 2022). When the workforce perceives that their leaders are committed, proactively track digital trends, and have a clear digital strategy to achieve a digital vision, trust in their leadership is nurtured.…”

This paper uses dynamic capabilities theory to explore the role of readiness to change as mediator in the intricate relationship between workforce agility and digital transformation. A total of 161 usable responses were gathered in two-waves of surveys from Indian organizations. Structural equation modelling was utilized to rigorously test the research hypotheses. The results unearthed a noteworthy positive link between workforce agility and the readiness to change, and this readiness, in turn, significantly influenced digital transformation. Intriguingly, the study also unveiled a direct relationship between workforce agility and digital transformation. The findings contribute a valuable thread to the literature, as it seamlessly weaves the concept of workforce agility into the fabric of digital transformation with Industry 4.0 context. This study would empower HR managers with a deeper understanding of the workforce's mindset and their preparedness to navigate technological changes. Such insights are indispensable, as effective change implementation hinges on insightful leadership.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the factors influencing user adoption behavior in the context of conflicting health information, thereby contributing to the understanding of users' information decision-making and adoption processes within intricate information environments. Furthermore, this research endeavors to offer guidance for mitigating the adverse effects of contradictory health information on users' cognitive perceptions.Design/methodology/approachFirst, this study used literature coding to identify factors that influence user adoption behavior in the context of conflicting health information. Secondly, we utilized the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method to unveil the key influencing factors based on centrality and causality. Lastly, utilizing the Interpretive Structural Model (ISM), we constructed the multilevel hierarchical structure model of influencing factors to delineate the relationships among factors across different levels.FindingsThe key causal factors influencing user adoption behavior in the context of conflicting health information include user basic characteristics, experience accumulation, and information type. The key result factors consist of psychological emotion, perceived trade-offs, and the source credibility. The significant elements include users' psychological emotions, perceived trade-offs, emotional support, source credibility, and informational support. Furthermore, user adoption behavior in the context of conflicting health information is a manifestation of the interplay among surface-level, mid-level, and deep-level factors.Research limitations/implicationsTheoretically, this paper enriches the existing relevant theoretical framework and offers a novel perspective for further investigation into user adoption behavior concerning conflicting health information. Practically, this study extracts factors that can influence user adoption behavior in the context of conflicting health information which is an essential reference value for guiding and optimizing user adoption behavior.Originality/valueThis paper expands the system of factors influencing user adoption behavior in the context of conflicting health information from individual, information and social perspectives. Utilizing DEMATEL quantitative analysis and ISM multilevel hierarchical models, this research examines and illustrates the significance of the influencing factors and their interrelationships.

PurposeThe rapid development of digital technologies drives digital entrepreneurs to pivot, a behavior that allows entrepreneurs to adjust original opportunities and explore new opportunities. This study aims to investigate the effect of the structural characteristics of digital entrepreneurial teams, the functional heterogeneity, on pivoting from the perspective of digital agility. Moreover, this study also examines the moderating effect of knowledge sharing.Design/methodology/approachTwo-phase survey data were sourced from Chinese digital entrepreneurial teams through the entrepreneurial networks of MBA programs of a Chinese business school and entrepreneurial support organizations in China. The sample of 272 teams with 708 entrepreneurs was collected to test the hypotheses.FindingsThe functional heterogeneity of digital entrepreneurial teams, including industry background heterogeneity and occupational experience heterogeneity, positively impacts pivoting by providing heterogeneous knowledge and resources. Moreover, this relationship is mediated by the digital agility of the digital team, and knowledge sharing moderates the relationship between functional heterogeneity and digital agility.Originality/valueWhile existing studies have mainly focused on the external factors, this study empirically investigates the team-level internal factors of digital pivoting in digital entrepreneurial teams, enriching the research perspective of pivoting. Moreover, the current study bridges the literature on digital agility with pivoting, broadening the theoretical mechanism of pivoting and expanding the theoretical boundaries of digital agility.
