Publication in Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal (VHB A)

The Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal has published the study "How management teams foster the transactive memory system–entrepreneurial orientation link: A domino effect model of positive team processes" which stems from the dissertation of JProf. Dr. Simon Hensellek.

Together with his colleagues Tobias Kollmann (University of Duisburg-Essen), Christoph Stöckmann (Privatuniversität Schloss Seeburg), Julia Maria Kensbock (Maastricht University), and Anika Peschl (Institut für angewandte Arbeitswissenschaft e. V.), JProf. Dr. Hensellek investigates how team design and team processes in management teams affect the entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of individual branches of a large logistics company. Based on the Knowledge-Based View and the Social Interdependence Theory, the authors show that specialization and coordination of knowledge as well as joint learning, decision-making, and identification processes of the teams emanating from it play a crucial role in increasing EO. Particularly noteworthy is the strong effect of team identification of team members for the entrepreneurial attitude of their subsidiaries. The team of authors thus provides important insights into how established companies can become more entrepreneurial.

The Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal (SEJ) is ranked category A according to the VHB Ranking JOURQUAL 3 and thus belongs to the big four entrepreneurship journals. Its international 2-Year Impact Factor of the Clarivate Journal Citation Report is 6,200.
