Abstract

Entrepreneurship is a critical driver of economic development, yet limited attention has been given to the role of work design in shaping entrepreneurial intentions, behaviors, and outcomes. Yet, literature at the nexus of work design and entrepreneurship is fragmented − and thus the evidence on the specific nature of these relationships is unclear. This systematic review investigates: how does work design shape entrepreneurial intention and entry? and how does founder work design shape individual and venture outcomes? Our integrative review identified four mechanisms that likely underlie the influence of work design on entrepreneurship—motivation, flexibility, capacity, and strain—and present them in a meta-framework to guide future research on how founders’ and employees’ work design emerges in start-ups, and how work design influences multilevel outcomes over time.

工作设计在创业中的作用：综述与元框架

企业家精神是经济发展的关键驱动力，但工作设计在塑造企业家意图、行为和结果方面的作用却受到了有限的关注。然而，关于工作设计和创业关系的文献是零散的，因此，关于这些关系的具体性质的证据是不清楚的。本文系统考察：工作设计如何塑造创业意向和进入？创始人工作设计如何影响个人和企业的成果？我们的综合评估确定了工作设计对创业影响的四种可能机制——动机、灵活性、能力和压力——并将它们放在一个元框架中，以指导未来关于创始人和员工的工作设计如何在初创企业中出现，以及工作设计如何随着时间的推移影响多层次结果的研究。
