“…This finding is consistent with institutional logic theory, according to which organizations adopt the prevailing institutional logic when they are deemed consistent with their identities, perceptions and missions (Lee and Rundle, 2021). The present study contributes to this theory that the normative institutional forces of the Islamic faith influence more religious organizational actors in carrying out social entrepreneurial practices, while less religious organizational actors may discard or even resist dominant institutional logic.…”

“…Individuals seek opportunities to integrate this faith-based logic and values into their professions to diminish the dissonance between the two spheres of work and religion (Hemingway and Maclagan, 2004). This desire for integration is precisely the case in some Islamic countries and communities, where such integration serves to gain organizational legitimacy (Lee and Rundle, 2021). Faith-based social entrepreneurs tend to assume that their work can act as an outlet for religious beliefs.…”

Purpose The major purpose of this research article is to empirically analyze a moderated-mediated model to comprehend the interrelationships between religiosity, life hardship, attitude toward social entrepreneurship (SE) and corporate social entrepreneurial orientation (SEO). Design/methodology/approach The constructivist grounded theory method was used to analyze interviews, and partial least squares structural equation modeling was selected to analyze the developed nine hypotheses. Findings Based on the structural model outcomes, the practicing religious believers reported a significantly higher level of corporate SEO and propensity for social proactiveness, innovativeness, risk-taking, socialness and persistence (dimensions of SEO) than the nonpracticing believers. Practical implications This study provides the practical implication that social entrepreneurs with a higher degree of congruence with the prevailing religious institutionalized logic in a society have a higher inclination to create social value through corporate practices and operations. Originality/value This study presents an SEO scale that incorporates the dimensions of two SEO scales developed by Kraus et al. (2017) and Syrjä et al. (2019). To the best of the author’s knowledge, the applicability and generalizability of this scale were supported for the first time in the SE discipline, particularly tourism SE. This scale effectively captures more characteristics of SE, particularly in the face of inefficient political and institutional forms.

“…For instance, some practitioners have formal ties with a mission agency and others do not; some care almost exclusively about evangelism while others prioritize all the “bottom lines” equally; and some have extensive business experience while others spent their formative years in the nonprofit world. Compounding matters is a long list of contextual and institutional differences—economic, political, cultural, and so on—that complicate the performance and assessment of a BAM enterprise (Lee and Rundle, 2021; Miao et al, 2022). Our dataset therefore offers an excellent opportunity to examine some of those factors and to formulate predictions that can provide a foundation for additional theory building and empirical study.…”

The motivations, backgrounds, and practices of business as mission practitioners: Insights from an international survey

“Business as mission” (BAM) was introduced to the Christian missions community during the 2004 Lausanne conference in Pattaya, Thailand. Since then, interest in BAM has grown exponentially, and with it, demand for support services, training, and financing. For all the attention, however, scholarly research in this area has not kept pace, and there remain many unknowns about the personal and contextual factors that contribute to the impact and sustainability of a BAM enterprise. Seeking to address that gap, this paper builds on insights from the social entrepreneurship literature that enables us to construct a typology that distinguishes between four basic types of BAM practitioner. While all four seek to advance the cause of Christ using business, and thus fit the basic definition of BAM, each brings a different combination of motivations, backgrounds, and practices. The relevance of those differences is then explored using survey data collected from 119 self-defined BAM practitioners around the world. We also identify several essential business practices that are correlated with strong economic and social impact. Implications for further research are discussed.
