Youth entrepreneurship has even a greater role in economic growth. The underlying issues are the high youth unemployment rates in developing but also in developed countries as well. Improving the entrepreneurial climate and providing a “fertile” ground for venture creation is almost an imperative for increasing the number of young entrepreneurs and the number of entrepreneurs overall. In this paper, the results of an extensive, cross-sectional study conducted over ten-years, are presented. The study includes 5670 respondents - high school and university students from Serbia. The goal was to determine the predictors of youth entrepreneurship intentions in the domain of venture creation.","PeriodicalId":45202,"journal":{"name":"Journal of East European Management Studies","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81564948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, the moderating role of organizational size in direct and all indirect relations between paternalistic leadership and task performance, through five different models is tested. Sample consists of 1,652 employees from various industries in İstanbul, Turkey. Hypothesized relationships were tested through structural equation modelling. The findings demonstrated the significant positive direct relationship between paternalistic leadership and employee task performance. Psychological ownership mediated the relationship of paternalistic leadership and task performance while person-organization fit had no mediating effect.

A Polish Case","authors":"Justyna Światowiec-Szczepańska, Łukasz Małys","doi":"10.5771/0949-6181-2021-4-589","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5771/0949-6181-2021-4-589","url":null,"abstract":"Several theories point to the influence of board interlocks on the diffusion of important resources, mainly information. Empirical confirmation of the information functionality of the interlocking directorates network was obtained in the case of network research under the Anglo-Saxon model of corporate governance as well as the continental model in developed countries. Since the early 1990s another model of corporate governance in CEE countries has been developed. The specific determinants of the development of this model do not allow us to unequivocally state similar causes and consequences of interlocking directorates in relation to the most frequently studied western corporate governance models. The aim of this study is to determine the importance managers attach to these relationships within a corporate network as a source of strategic information that is important to the company’s strategic decision-making process, in the context of the Polish governance model. The research employs the case-study method and presents the results of five case studies of companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The research, on the one hand, suggests that the network embeddedness of Polish listed companies is of minor significance; on the other hand, it pointed to the existence of two main types of corporate networks: one inwardly directed and focused on supervisory board members’ controlling function performed with a view to protecting the shareholders’ equity ownership, and the other orientated towards external relationships, often distant from the original industry, in order to obtain information that supports new initiatives. What seems to most determine the behaviour of company managers is the corporate culture resulting from the presence of a foreign owner from a Western European country. In general, the findings confirm the importance of the network of interlocking directorates more as an instrument of control than diffusion of strategic information.","PeriodicalId":45202,"journal":{"name":"Journal of East European Management Studies","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87800673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It illustrates the results of a field survey involving direct interviews conducted with Polish companies as the direct investors. The research results confirmed that joint ventures might be used by Polish companies to reduce the difficulties related to the availability of resources.

Using the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) theory we develop a model that considers two types of stimuli: digital content tone (consisting of positive and negative valence) and digital content substance, as well as two types of behavioural responses: opens and clicks on the content. Research is conducted in six countries over a period of three years, investigating objective users’ behavioural indicators for a regional newsletter. The results show digital content tone impacts users’ response in terms of opens and that this effect differs across the region. Furthermore, we show that the digital content substance is significantly related to number of clicks on the newsletter content and that this effect is curvilinear for the number of news features and number of calls, while it is positive and linear for the stakeholder/keywords mentions.

The findings from the survey on 132 medium- and large-sized industrial firms in Croatia show that buyer power and competitive rivalry positively moderate the relationship between innovativeness and performance outcomes. Moreover, it was found that customer- and competitor-focused positional advantages mediate the link between innovativeness and performance outcomes.

It was found that generational belonging significantly moderated the relationship between colleagues’ support and normative commitment and between job autonomy and continuance commitment.
