However, existing questionnaire measures of leaders’ charisma suffer from several limitations, primarily that they almost exclusively assess leaders’ charisma in terms of its effects rather than the constituent behaviors, thus conflating cause and effect. Employing the signaling approach to leaders' charisma, I developed and validated the Charismatic Leadership Tactics Scale (CLTS) across ten studies to measure leaders' charisma as an exogenous variable. Scale items were derived from empirical research on distinct charismatic leadership tactics. First, I established the factorial structure and internal consistency of the CLTS with managers (Study 1) and employees (Study 2). Second, I tested the agreement between manager and employee ratings and the scale’s convergent, discriminant, and incremental validity (Studies 3, 4). Third, I demonstrated that the CLTS relate to objectively measured harismatic tactics, the cognitive abilities underlying leaders’ charisma, and the outcomes that leaders’ charisma is expected to influence (external validity; Studies 5, 6, 7). Fourth, I showed the scale’s sensitivity to change in a charisma training program for managers (Study 8). Finally, I present a cross-cultural adaptation of the CLTS with managers (Study 9) and employees (Study 10). Utilizing diverse methodologies, including cross-sectional studies, automated behavioral assessments, cognitive tests, negotiation tasks, and a quasi-experimental training evaluation, these studies establish the CLTS as a valid instrument. The CLTS matches or exceeds established charismatic leadership measures while disentangling its measurement from endogenous or conflicting influences.</p>","PeriodicalId":20992,"journal":{"name":"Review of Managerial Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141934692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study provides an overview of the current knowledge on the topic by identifying four thematic clusters: “social entrepreneurship for societal impact”, “entrepreneurship for sustainable development”, “female entrepreneurship for institutional change”, and “entrepreneurship for inclusive regional development”. It further reveals that entrepreneurship literature predominantly focuses on social impact, with less emphasis on environmental impact, and it stresses the need for future research to avoid working in silos. In particular, it suggests that the boundaries between the different impact domains are elusive and that the interlinkages between social, environmental, and economic impact should be further explored.

Our findings reveal that the most significant factors for reaching the soft cap are the number of followers and team size, while the competencies (education and skills) of the management team have a very marginal effect, even when enhanced through social media. This indicates that widespread social media signals can positively influence investor behavior without necessarily reducing information asymmetries regarding the quality of the team.

We show that family and non-family female directors affect cash holdings differently. When the presence of family female directors is scarce, their role is eclipsed, thereby encouraging actions related to family goals and increasing cash holdings. However, when the presence of family female directors reaches a critical mass, the cohesion between the interests of the dominant family and external investors increases, thereby reducing the level of cash holdings. When the number of non-family female directors is low, the cash level of family firms is reduced, suggesting that non-family female directors encourage the family firm’s cash reduction as a result of their greater capacity to control and their orientation towards an effective corporate governance system. This cash-decreasing effect will occur even if the number of non-family female directors is low, since the purpose of appointing non-family female directors is less likely to be symbolic. In addition, non-family female directors are concerned about threats to reputational capital, such that reducing cash holdings would promote their reputation as credible supervisors, protect their current appointments, and also boost the likelihood of future appointments. However, the presence of a critical mass of non-family female directors becomes a sufficiently powerful instrument of control and legitimation for external investors, allowing for increased cash levels without increasing agency conflicts.</p>","PeriodicalId":20992,"journal":{"name":"Review of Managerial Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141613195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study examines dynamic capabilities as a moderating factor in the IEO-international performance relationship, based on the resource-based view (RBV). A survey involving 120 internationalized SMEs from industrial and service sectors was conducted, and data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) through Partial Least Squares (PLS). The findings indicate that seizing and reconfiguring capabilities significantly enhance the IEO-international performance link while sensing capabilities do not show a notable impact. This research contributes to the literature by affirming the role of dynamic capabilities in strengthening SMEs’ international performance through IEO, highlighting the differential impact of various dynamic capabilities, and offering insights into the specific roles of these capabilities as moderators in the IEO-international performance relationship.

This study adopts a qualitative approach by conducting semistructured interviews with Italian affiliated workers who are coworking space users. Our analysis explores the benefits of using coworking spaces and the reasons that motivate affiliated workers to do so, as well as how relationships, social support, and collaboration with coworkers and colleagues are perceived. The results show that the perceived main advantages concern (a) flexibility and work efficiency and (b) relational opportunities, at both the personal and professional levels. The findings clarify the conditions under which workers sharing coworking spaces develop satisfying social relationships and collaboration, shedding light on the group dynamics of a mix of affiliated and unaffiliated workers across coworking spaces from the affiliated workers’ perspective.
