“…Social cohesion rests in the interpersonal relationships within entrepreneurial collaboration and entrepreneurship itself (Berger & Kuckertz, 2016;Dundon, 2002;Hoigaard et al, 2006). Social cohesion does influence organizational synergy; it does not always do so in a manner that contributes positively to collective performance or problem-solving capacity, especially in highly socially cohesive groups where the ability to innovate in the face of new challenges stalls (Griffith et al, 2015;Hoigaard et al, 2013;Sethi et al, 2001;Wise, 2014). A pragmatic manager may be reluctant to sacrifice satisfactory functionality for innovative capacity that may or may not be necessary for some time.…”

This paper develops a methodological framework to review the literature relevant to the implications of social cohesion for entrepreneurs collaborating in the pursuit of innovation. The framework is then used to understand the current state of the art for that phenomenon. Thirdly, a theoretical model is developed for areas of concern in the stewardship of collaborating entrepreneurs. The abstracts of 631 academic resources between 1950 and 2020 are analyzed using Webster and Watson’s (MIS Quarterly, 26(2):xiii–xxiii, 2002) methodology. Sixty-four salient resources are identified and critically analyzed, categorizing research methodology, subject area, and additional, pertinent bibliometrics. Entrepreneurial collaboration is an emerging field of research that draws from a variety of disciplines and requires clarification in its use of terminology for both entrepreneurial collaboration and social cohesion. In addition to making those clarifications, the tendency of managers to maintain a hands-off approach in their oversight of entrepreneurial cadres is challenged. The theoretical model provides a useful overview of related concepts for future research and encourages managers to rethink their agency as necessary and not as a matter of interference. This paper contributes to the growing field of entrepreneurial collaboration by proposing the moderation of social cohesion as a means to sustain innovation.
