The findings reveal that although the digitalisation of coworking processes does not necessarily yield positive outcomes for users, implementing effective virtual environments can provide greater flexibility, maintain the interplay between well-being and productivity, and connect entrepreneurial ecosystems across regional and national boundaries.

Our results, based on a sample of 54 studies containing 332 effect sizes, provide empirical insights into the impact of individual-level antecedents (e.g., age, gender, human capital, self-efficacy, entrepreneurial alertness), firm-level antecedents (e.g., firm age, firm size), and macro-level antecedents (e.g., environmental dynamism) on entrepreneurial passion and its domains. Furthermore, our results show the implications of entrepreneurial passion and its domains for individual-level outcomes (e.g., entrepreneurial intention, opportunity recognition) and firm-level outcomes (e.g., firm performance).

By country-of-origin based image discrepancies, we mean misalignments between immigrants’ own notions and their perceptions of how host country employees (HCEs) think about their countries-of-origin and themselves based on their countries-of-origin. Our findings reveal that immigrants perceive discrepancies pertaining to four domains: national distinctiveness, dietary sophistication, governance and development, and religious practice. Further, they respond to them through two broad sets of tactics. The first set of responses involve engagement with HCEs via discussing, misleading, and individualizing. The second set involves evading HCEs and includes striving, immigrant socializing, avoiding, and rationalizing. This study contributes to the literature on image discrepancies by highlighting the importance of country-of-origin, specifically for qualified immigrants, who respond to them through various tactics.
