Abstract

Drawing on the attention-based view, this study investigates the linkage of top management team (TMT) conflict to entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and the moderating effect of organizational structure in terms of formalization and centralization on the linkage. It finds that TMT cognitive conflict is positively related to EO, while affective conflict is negatively related to it. Furthermore, formalization positively moderates the linkage of TMT cognitive conflict to EO, while negatively moderates the negative linkage of TMT affective conflict to EO. Moreover, centralization does not significantly moderate the linkage of either TMT cognitive or affective conflict to EO. This study enriches our knowledge of the antecedents of EO, improves our understanding of the value of TMT conflict by distinguishing between TMT cognitive conflict and affective conflict, and introduces a novel insight—the attention-based view—to elaborate the TMT conflict-EO linkage.

TMT冲突、组织结构与创业导向:一个基于注意力的观点

基于注意基础理论，本研究探讨了高管团队冲突与创业导向的关联，以及正规化和集中化两方面的组织结构对这种关联的调节作用。研究发现，TMT认知冲突与绩效正相关，情感冲突与绩效负相关。形式化正向调节TMT认知冲突与情感行为的关联，负向调节TMT情感冲突与情感行为的负向关联。此外，集中化并没有显著调节TMT认知冲突和情感冲突对工作动机的影响。本研究丰富了我们对情感导向冲突前因的认识，通过区分情感导向冲突和认知冲突，提高了我们对情感导向冲突价值的认识，并引入了一种新颖的观点——注意基础观点——来阐述情感导向冲突与情感导向的联系。

期刊介绍： The Scandinavian Journal of Management (SJM) provides an international forum for innovative and carefully crafted research on different aspects of management. We promote dialogue and new thinking around theory and practice, based on conceptual creativity, reasoned reflexivity and contextual awareness. We have a passion for empirical inquiry. We promote constructive dialogue among researchers as well as between researchers and practitioners. We encourage new approaches to the study of management and we aim to foster new thinking around management theory and practice. We publish original empirical and theoretical material, which contributes to understanding management in private and public organizations. Full-length articles and book reviews form the core of the journal, but focused discussion-type texts (around 3.000-5.000 words), empirically or theoretically oriented, can also be considered for publication. The Scandinavian Journal of Management is open to different research approaches in terms of methodology and epistemology. We are open to different fields of management application, but narrow technical discussions relevant only to specific sub-fields will not be given priority.
