It also involves forgoing attempts to make research directly usable by practitioners, who rarely read scholarly journals like JBV, in favor of enhancing its suitability for translation in outlets intended for those audiences. We introduce three design criteria—importance, insight, and impact—to guide the creation of translatable research that honors traditional academic standards. Our discussion touches on what the design criteria mean, how they make research translatable, how scholars can satisfy them, what they look like in exemplar JBV publications, and why they matter now.

Indeed, prior research tends to conceptualize opportunity exploitation as uniform and binary, such as sustainable or unsustainable, rather than as a set of dynamic processes and activities shaped by local contexts. Through an inductive study of the South African abalone industry, we explore entrepreneurial variants—differentiated processes and activities of opportunity exploitation—offering a framework for identifying and interpreting the integrated mechanisms through which opportunities are exploited within a local system. We found that the community members perceive that these entrepreneurial variants generate two primary dynamics: pernicious dynamics (i.e., processes that community members believe diminish the functioning of the community) and symbiotic dynamics (i.e., processes that community members believe enhance the functioning of the community). We shed light on how a local system comprises multiple entrepreneurial variants, each embodying distinct relationships with and implications for the local ecology, people, and place. We also offer insights into when mostly unsustainable entrepreneurship can involve symbiotic dynamics and when mostly sustainable entrepreneurship can involve pernicious dynamics. We conclude by discussing the implications for both entrepreneurship theory and practice.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Executive summary&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;Opportunity exploitation is a core element of entrepreneurship. Scholars have recently begun investigating unsustainable entrepreneurship, where entrepreneurs exploit opportunities in ways that cause harm to the natural environment. Scholars have also examined sustainable entrepreneurship, where entrepreneurs exploit opportunities that generate solutions to diminish the harm caused to the natural environment. Indeed, much of the existing entrepreneurship literature has relied on binary constructions, such as the exploitation of sustainable &lt;em&gt;or&lt;/em&gt; unsustainable opportunities or of social &lt;em&gt;or&lt;/em&gt; commercial opportunities. These constructions largely focus on singular underlying processes and outcomes of opportunity exploitation, offering limited insights into how opportunity exploitation may involve multiple, overlapping, or even conflicting processes and activities within a local system.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Thus, while prior research has often conceptualized opportunity exploitation in static and binary terms, a deeper understanding of the dynamic, context-dependent processes and activities through which opportunities are exploited remains elusive. In particular, we lack a structured framework to examine the underlying interconnected processes and activities of opportunity exploitation.

To explore these questions, we draw on the performance feedback literature and use longitudinal data from 27,704 U.K. and 7272 Belgian private firms to examine strategic investment in private firms. We find that board oversight increases the likelihood that firms will adjust investment levels in line with predictions by the Behavioral Theory of the Firm (BTOF), as firms with high board oversight increase investment when performance falls below aspirations and reduce it when performance exceeds aspirations. In contrast, low board oversight is associated with deviations from BTOF predictions, as firms with low board oversight tend to reduce investment when performance is below aspirations but increase it even when performance is well above aspirations. These findings suggest that governed (high oversight) and ungoverned (low oversight) private firms follow different decisionmaking logics; governed firms appear to engage in coalition-based decision-making, while decision-making in ungoverned firms appears to be dominated by ownermanagers, whose investment preferences resemble those of risk-averse, undiversified investors. We also find that the relationship between owner-management, performance feedback, and strategic investment is tempered (offset) by board oversight. In sum, our findings indicate boards play a critical role in private firms by promoting collective goals (as identified and enacted by the board) and limiting the influence of owner-manager's personal goals, risk-preferences, and individual economic interests on the firm's response to performance feedback.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51348,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Venturing","volume":"40 4","pages":"Article 106509"},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144138009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Empirical work using linked employer-employee microdata for Portugal support this. The rank effect is stronger in firms with older top managers. Employees who progress slower into managerial ranks are not pushed into entrepreneurship but are more likely to take on jobs as employees in other firms. Overall, our results suggest that firms with younger management ranks offer more chances for workers to enter managerial positions and, therefore, spawn more entrepreneurs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Executive summary&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;A common career pathway leading towards entrepreneurship materializes through gaining experience working as a wage employee. In particular, work in top and middle management roles involving leadership and responsibility for strategic decisions should provide experience, knowledge and networks that are valuable for entrepreneurship. Founders of prominent unicorns and start-up ventures throughout the world have acquired significant managerial experience.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Top and middle management roles often involve tasks that demand a broad range of skills associated with obtaining and deploying resources, as well as organizing and managing people. Furthermore, top and middle managerial positions expose individuals to ample opportunities for obtaining new knowledge and learning, including knowledge about new business opportunities.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A recent theory named the rank effect suggests that in societies with older workforces, younger workers are less likely to become entrepreneurs because they are unable to acquire the experience and skills required for entrepreneurship. In aging societies, top and middle managers are more likely to be older and hold on to their positions for longer, thereby blocking younger subordinates from reaching managerial ranks. Since younger people are more likely to possess the energy, creativity, risk-taking and innovative abilities that enable and motivate entrepreneurs, if fewer young employees hold top and middle managerial ranks (so they can acquire essential experience), entrepreneurship rates will likely decline.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Arguably, the rank effect argument overlooks that, if workers are indeed blocked from progressing to managerial positions in firms with older workforces and managers, frustration caused by lack of career advancement may also lead them to leave, either by seeking employment in another firm, or possibly by becoming entrepreneurs themselves. If non-managerial workers frustrated with lack of career progress are more likely to become entrepreneurs, the basic argument of rank theory – that managerial experience is a vital determinant of entrepreneurial ability and motivation – is significantly weakened.&lt;","PeriodicalId":51348,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Venturing","volume":"40 4","pages":"Article 106502"},"PeriodicalIF":7.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143886445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
