“…Absorptive capacity is closely related to knowledge and routine compatibility (Eric, 2016). According to the knowledge-based view, absorptive capacity originated from existing accumulated knowledge (Ahammad et al , 2016; Park and Chung, 2019; Hou et al , 2019). The similarity in knowledge between sending and receiving units can make the flow of new knowledge smooth (Bryan Jean et al , 2017).…”

PurposeThe study adopts congruence theory to explore the structure of inter-organizational compatibility and its structural effects on knowledge transfer in cross-border merger and acquisitions (M&As).Design/methodology/approachThis paper built a moderated-mediation model that presented the relationship between inter-organizational compatibility and knowledge transfer. Regression analysis was conducted with 182 samples from China to examine the model and hypotheses.FindingsThe results indicate that inter-organizational compatibility is a four-dimensional construct comprising culture, strategy, routine and knowledge. Additionally, inter-organizational compatibility has structural effects on knowledge transfer. Specifically, routine compatibility mediates the relationships between cultural compatibility and knowledge transfer and between strategic compatibility and knowledge transfer. Moreover, the mediating roles are moderated by knowledge compatibility.Originality/valueThis study updates the construct and provides a comprehensive and fresh understanding of inter-organizational compatibility. Additionally, it presents the structural effects of inter-organizational compatibility on knowledge transfer.

“…Innovativeness involves organizations have to originate, enhance as well as look for innovative opportunities. It includes an inclination to take part in innovativeness and research through innovative work, Research, and Development (R&D) (Al‐Henzab, 2018; Rauch et al, 2009). The dimension of risk‐taking is very near to that of creativity and innovativeness including intrepid activities that task into the vague or the obligation of significant resources to unclear risks (Lumpkin & Dess, 1996b).…”

“…Nevertheless, some researchers see proactiveness as: “ a response to opportunities ” and competitive aggressiveness as: “ a reply to market coercion s” (Lyon, Lumpkin & Dess, 2000). And the fifth dimension of EO, autonomy is described as self‐determining action by individuals or a group to convey an indication or vision to its completion, through the objective to grow a mission (Hafeez, Noor, Shariff, & Lazim, 2012; Rauch et al, 2009).…”

“…In an entrepreneurial firm, the entrepreneur is the most significant individual, having an excessive impact on the firm strategy and firm performance. Rauch et al (2009) examined that EO has positive impact on the firm performance in his meta‐analysis. This stem from the way that shortening items, plan of action, and business model life cycle make depending on current schedule and strategies less gainful, while being innovative, proactive, and risk‐taking could help set up first‐mover points of interest and create better than expected returns (Wiklund & Shepherd, 2005).…”

“…Previous study on the project management shows positive effect of the adoption of project management approaches on firm performance (Dvir, Raz, & Shenhar, 2003; Yean & Ling, 2009). After various study, it is normally admitted that firms that operate entrepreneurially perform more better results as compared to that organizations that do not operate entrepreneurially (Lumpkin, 2011; Lumpkin & Dess, 1996b; Rauch, Wiklund, & Frese, 2009). Moreover, EO is related to positive performance gain in both short and long firms over time, though performance gain gradually decreases over time in short term organizations (Gupta & Gupta, 2014).…”

The given work is centered on the effect of entrepreneurial orientation on the firm performance mediated by organizational learning while the relationship of organizational learning and firm performance moderated by environmental turbulence. It enhances the literature by differentiating performances of IT firms and by describing how the five dimensions of EO impact the firm performances through organizational learning. This study observed the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance through organizational learning and moderated by environmental turbulence. To achieve this aim, deductive approach was adopted. The sample size of the study was 250 respondents and data were collected from software houses of Pakistan. Data were collected through questionnaires. The proposed hypotheses analyzed by doing the SEM in Smart‐PLS. The results demonstrate the mediating impact of organizational learning between the relationship of entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance. It was accepted and the reasons being that exploration of new ideas will help the employee to more learning that enhances their performance to achieve the project goals and objectives. The results also demonstrate the moderating impact of environmental turbulence between the relationship of organizational learning and firm performance. The results indicate that the five dimensions of EO, organizational learning, environmental turbulence, and their influence on firm performance. Managers can use these results to monitor, control, and influence the performance of projects and firm performance. The study is unique in its scope and implications as the focus is upon empirical investigation of the entrepreneurial orientation and organizational learning in the context of Asia focusing Pakistan. The originality of this study is that it undoes how the five dimensions of EO impact the firm performance. Second, it shows the moderated role of environmental turbulence between OL and firm performance. This study fills a gap in the literature by describing the organizational learning mediating the relationship of EO and firm performance and adds the argument on the results relating the relationship between EO and firm performance. The given work is focused on the impact of entrepreneurial orientation on the firm performance through organizational learning while using environmental turbulence as a moderator. A deductive approach was adopted in this study. The sample size of the study was 250 respondents and data were collected through questionnaires from software houses of Pakistan. The anticipated hypotheses analyzed by doing the SEM in Smart‐PLS. All hypotheses were accepted and managers can use these results to monitor, control, and influence the performance of projects and their firm to accomplish the project objectives and intentions. The study is exclusive in its scope and implications as the emphasis is upon experimental research of the EO and OL in the context of Asia especially Pakistan. The uniqueness of this study is t...

The natural resource‐based view (NRBV) posits that aligning business operations toward sustainability fosters innovation and leads to sustainable competitive advantages. Green market orientation (GMO) and green innovation (GI) have emerged as strategic approaches that enhance organizational performance (OP). However, understanding service contexts still needs to be improved, particularly in small restaurants in emerging countries. Additionally, while previous studies on GMO and GI have primarily focused on operationalizing OP based on past performance, there needs to be more understanding of their impact on past performance and future growth. Utilizing a balanced scorecard approach helps to address this limitation effectively. Building on these theoretical frameworks, this study investigates the impact of GMO and ambidextrous GI on OP and the mediating role of ambidextrous GI in the GMO‐OP linkage. Data from 272 small restaurants in Vietnam were collected and analyzed using PLS‐SEM to illuminate the effects of GMO in the restaurant context. The findings support both direct and indirect effects. This study advances NRBV by utilizing balanced scorecard approaches to capture performance outcomes comprehensively. This research also extends GMO studies to the service sector, especially small restaurants, underscoring the pivotal roles of GMO in boosting GI and performance. Lastly, this study follows prior calls for more studies to shed light on the antecedents and consequences of ambidextrous GI.
