“…In our qualitative research, the discussion of paradox, contradiction or tension proved to be significant in the case of social entrepreneurship. As numerous studies show (de Mon et al 2022;Siegner et al 2018;Smith et al 2013), social entrepreneurship is characterized by a combination of social and economic missions, which can create tension between goals.…”

Although in the past qualitative research in the field of management did not achieve much acknowledgement, mainly due to the impossibility of synthesising subjective experiences into generally valid statements, there is now a recognition of the significant importance of it. This is due to dynamic changes in society and global challenges that place high demands on managers and put pressure on the need to come up with new creative solutions to problems. The qualitative approach allows understanding the value orientation and the very ways of being of a manager, which is an important prerequisite for their self-development and learning. This paper highlights the intersections between the existential themes found in the research perspectives of existential hermeneutic phenomenology and Zen practice and proposes the development of a cross-cultural research framework that provides an interpretation of the lived experience of managers. The core existential insights that help to understand the lived experience of managers are the positive meaning of existential disruptions and dilemmas, authenticity of experience, and dialogical learning.

“…Nevertheless, some exploratory studies have identified some characteristics of such entrepreneurs (Alvord et al 2004). Several have searched for the difference between a for-profit entrepreneur and a social entrepreneur (Boschee 2006;Shaw and Carter 2007), and others focus on studying the motivations and concerns (Álvarez de Mon et al 2021). Some refer to the agency theory to explain the conflicts of the nature of the duality of the activity (Davis et al 2021).…”

The objective is analyzing the trends in Social Entrepreneurship Education as a multidisciplinary research field. A systematic review of the literature on the intersection: Education and Social Entrepreneurship, with the support of scientific literature and a careful search methodology. It collects articles from the WOS Core collection database published between 2000 and 2022. A total of 367 articles are analyzed to answer the three research questions. The results of the analysis are twelve dimensions identified according to the literature in the field of social entrepreneurship education; after using lexicometric analysis and Iramuteq software, the main trends on the topics are found and discussed and the relationship of terms and concepts in the abstract and title text of the analyzed articles is shown, showing the frequency, importance of linkage, and co-occurrences of lexical units. Six clusters of nodes and related terms are confirmed: entrepreneur, development and innovation, education, entrepreneurial university, context, and types of study. These clusters show the concern for the field of study of social entrepreneurship education and the need to find a consensus on the concept of an entrepreneur and on what is social entrepreneurship in education. The wide range of topics, dispersed and fragmented, continues to offer opportunities for specificity.

“…Compromise is inevitable in the process of organizational change [54,55]. In general, all aspects of change, whether positive or negative, are often associated with organizational politics, especially when the change is associated with the reorganization of resources and power in the organizational structure [56,57].…”

“…Empirical evidence, in general, has shown that conflict undermines new product quality, disrupts delivery schedules, increases development costs, and leads to relationship termination [68,70,71]. Appropriate compromise to meet the requirements of the management team is an effective way to implement Internet projects, although this may be limited because of the risk of losing long-term, reliable support from stakeholders who want to see their interests or expectations more fully achieved [55,72,73].…”

With the increasing impact of the Internet, the transformation of traditional retailers through Internet innovation has become a pressing issue. Based on the theory of innovation and marketing capability, this study investigated the relationships among adaptive marketing capability (AMC), Internet market newness, and innovation performance. The mediation effect of compromise on these relationships was also investigated. Through data analysis of 205 questionnaires in China, the current study confirmed that interaction between AMC and Internet market newness significantly affected innovation performance, and Internet market newness positively affected performance only when AMC was high. The results also demonstrated that compromise mediated the interaction with performance. AMC moderated not only the direct effects on performance by Internet market newness, but the effects on compromise by Internet market newness.
