“…In addition to the strains on the coach-player relationship that participants perceived in negative environments, limitations on opportunity imposed by the environmental structure of an organization also impeded the participants' perception of authoritative resources (Kabeer, 1999 ; Sheerin et al, 2020 ). Often, in characterizations of negative environments, the participants identified that they were not afforded the opportunity to demonstrate their ability by forces that extended beyond the immediate context to include broader positioning of the team or player.…”

“…As evidenced in the participants' accounts of environments in which they perceived both allocative and authoritative resources, the environment was perceived as positive or beneficial. Conversely, though the participants reported that they possessed the necessary allocative resources (competence) across contexts, negative environments were those in which they did not possess the necessary authoritative resources to develop or demonstrate their abilities (Sheerin et al, 2020 ).…”

To examine the impact of the relationship between agency and structure on sustained participation in youth sport, semi-structured interviews were conducted with male college soccer players. The participants' accounts (N = 20) of their youth careers were analyzed through the lens of Structuration Theory (ST) framed in a constructivist paradigm. ST supports the significance of the recursive relationship between agent and structure in-context in the co-construction of experiences, and provides a framework for analyzing effects of compounding experiences gained across time and space as they influence sport continuation. Clarity of expectations imposed in-context and the athlete's perceived impact on the structure evidenced, through deductive thematic analysis, as the most salient determinants of the perceived valence of the youth sport environment. The agent's perceived holding of authoritative resources across time and contexts was a critical dimension of the participants' continuation in youth sport, substantiating ST as a theoretical lens, situated in a constructivist paradigm, that might add depth to understanding patterns in participation and attrition.

“…Ambidextrous leadership is important to embed innovativeness in a business (Kung et al, 2020). According to researchers, organizations can achieve innovativeness by having EJIM 26,1 ambidexterity in the leadership, context and structure (Sheerin et al, 2020). Prior studies have suggested that knowledge-sharing is an activity of providing knowledge within the organization, and it is an essential element to achieve organization success (Savolainen, 2019).…”

It likewise includes belief that require the extensive cost of time, assets and power, as trainees stable the inspiration to enable one another to acquire knowledge and share well-deserved information (Sheerin et al, 2020). It leads to KS as a mediator between personal and organizational innovative work behavior.…”

PurposeResearch on adopting leadership style like ambidextrous leadership to enhance employees' innovative work behavior (IWB) is in an initial stage. Moreover, employees need a high knowledge sharing attitude to show more IWB. The purpose of this study is to empirically test the impact of ambidextrous leadership on IWB with the mediating role of knowledge sharing and the moderating role of innovativeness as a project requirement (IAPR).Design/methodology/approachThe simple random sampling technique was used to collect data from 542 employees of project-based construction companies operating in Pakistan. Smart partial least squares-structural equation modeling (Smart PLS SEM v.3.2.8) was used to test the hypotheses.FindingsThe result revealed that ambidextrous leadership has a significant and positive effect on knowledge sharing but negative effect on IWB at the workplace. Additionally, the mediating role of knowledge sharing has been tested and proved to be a potential mediator between ambidextrous leadership and IWB. Also, IAPR as moderator has a significant and positive effect on knowledge sharing and IWB.Practical implicationsThe managers need to develop an ambidexterity-oriented strategy and communicate this strategy across the members of the whole organization. These processes can be facilitated by ambidextrous leaders with complex behavioral repertoires and specific constellations and characteristics of top management teams.Originality/valueThe relationship between ambidextrous leadership and IWB is the new contribution through the mediating of knowledge sharing between AL and IWB also moderation role IWB between knowledge sharing and IWB.

“…The next article in this issue (Sheerin, Hughes and Garavan 2020) looks at the way contextual masculinities constrain agency around knowledge sharing from women's perspectives. Their qualitative study provides insights into the ways in which our systems and structures are socially constructed to manufacture gender hegemonic ideas about how knowledge is shared, with whom it is shared, and what value is ascribed to shared knowledge.…”
