Abstract

Subsidiaries draw on different networks to undertake entrepreneurial initiatives. While previous literature has emphasized the subsidiary's relational embeddedness as a key factor enabling initiatives, we know much less about the selective network mobilizations of different groups of actors. Our research takes a network mobilization view and uncovers the practices of network mobilization and avoidance across initiative phases. Ten in-depth case studies of realized initiatives reveal how subsidiaries activate multiple networks for different purposes, that networks are ‘fluid’ across different phases, and that initiatives follow different pathways for local and global impact. These insights extend the literature on subsidiary initiatives and shed light on subsidiary initiative processes.

实现辅助行动:网络动员的观点
子公司利用不同的网络开展创业活动。虽然以前的文献强调子公司的关系嵌入性是实现主动性的关键因素,但我们对不同行为者群体的选择性网络动员知之甚少。我们的研究采用网络动员的观点,揭示了跨主动性阶段的网络动员和回避的实践。对已实现计划的十个深入案例研究揭示了子公司如何为不同目的激活多个网络,网络在不同阶段是“流动的”,以及计划遵循不同的途径以产生本地和全球影响。这些见解扩展了关于附属计划的文献,并阐明了附属计划过程。
