“…From the above discussion, we can derive the following hypotheses: Risk-taking ability (RTA). Whenever organizational change takes place, it must balance risk against opportunities (Khorshid and Mehdiabadi, 2021) and risk-taking ability is a dynamic ability in terms of DCV (Teece et al, 1997). Zahra (2005) suggested that this ability is a prerequisite for innovation and for any transformation in response to growth opportunities.…”

PurposeIn the post-COVID-19 era, the hospitality industry is rapidly moving towards digitalization, which requires employees to upgrade their knowledge and skills. Some employees resist those changes and refuse to upgrade their knowledge, skills and ways of doing things. Therefore, there is a need to understand this unexplored area and so this study examines employee intentions to embrace digital technology from the perspective of upgrading their skills and knowledge. The study investigates the moderating role of the employees' resistance to change motive (RCM) on their intention to embrace digital technology, especially in the post-COVID-19 pandemic scenario.Design/methodology/approachThe research is conducted using dynamic capability view (DCV) theory and status quo bias (SQB) theory. Drawing on the existing literature in this area, a theoretical model is developed, which is validated using the structural equation modelling technique to analyse data from hospitality industry employees.FindingsThe results indicate that employees' dynamic capability plays a significant role in employees' upgrading their skill and knowledge capabilities, and this significantly improves employee intention to embrace digital technology. It also finds that the employee RCM plays a significant role in the relationship between upgrading skill capability and their knowledge capability to relation to embracing digital technology.Originality/valueThe findings could be used by hospitality managers to better understand employee intentions with regard to adopting digital technology, challenges faced and the way forward.

“…While academia traditionally is a low-risk, slow-moving, and thoughtful enterprise, administrative pursuits and organizational changes drive colleges to take on more risks (Battilana et al, 2009). Khorshid and Mehdiabadi’s (2021) risk-taking framework includes organizational, meso, and individual levels. Organizational risk-taking may align with the individual level and may combine at the meso level to amplify entrepreneurial opportunities.…”

“…Organizational risk-taking may align with the individual level and may combine at the meso level to amplify entrepreneurial opportunities. When the risk-taking culture of the college and leaders are not aligned with each other, it complicates decision-making and actions (Khorshid & Mehdiabadi, 2021). Leaders thus interpret the risk-taking nature of the college while paying attention to their own comfort with risk.…”

Objective: This article explores entrepreneurial leadership behavior from the vantage point of mid- and senior-level administrators who lead international education initiatives at U.S. community colleges. Administrators’ choices are examined to understand how they develop and use strategies for targeted problem solving within their institutional context. Research questions posed in this study include: (1) How, if at all, do community college international education leaders (CC-IELs) self-identify as entrepreneurs? (2) What characteristics embody a CC-IEL entrepreneurial leader? (3) How are CC-IELs navigators of institutional contexts? Methods: Semi-structured interviews are used to investigate the perspectives and entrepreneurial leadership skills and behaviors of 14 CC-IELs. A narrative analysis approach allowed these leaders to reflect on their perspectives and narrate their decision-making process. Results: Findings indicated that the CC-IELs in this study identified as entrepreneurial leaders, used characteristics such as collaboration to build a culture of innovation, and strategically utilized relationships with stakeholders to ground themselves as navigators of institutional contexts. Contributions: This article contributes to the understanding of an under-studied group of leaders in community colleges, specifically those who lead international education programs. It also provides insight into the entrepreneurial dimensions of CC-IEL leadership roles.

“…Based on previous research exploring the effect of organizational identification (OID) on organizational innovativeness (OINN) in universities, the findings show that the OID has a positive impact on the ORTC and OINN [10]. According to [11], developing a workintegrated learning (WIL) model for university-society research collaboration can facilitate societal impact toward short lag yet sustainable societal impact for local innovation.…”

The purpose of this research is to develop a model for measuring the efficiency of the TTO incubation process performance to accelerate the commercialization of research results in universities. The method of analyzing the efficiency used in this research is the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method based on Banker, Charnes, and Cooper (BCC), which is output-oriented. The software used in analyzing the efficiency of TTO performance is MaxDEA 8. The output of this research is a mathematical model tool for measuring the efficiency of TTO performance by DEA, which considered 17 parameters and proposed recommendations for TTO performance strategies. The limitation of this research is the object of research in one university that has succeeded in the commercialization of research. This research implies that the performance efficiency measurement model is an alternative predictive way to increase the acceleration of commercialization. The practical implications of this research are that it can evaluate performance or inefficient strategies in the incubation process of higher education research results to the Technology Transfer Office (TTO). This research also provides recommendations on strengthening the TTO function that can be used as a reference for improving performance at universities. This research measures the level of performance evaluation of TTO in the incubation process, which refers to the Death Valley framework. This incubation process is the main process accelerating the commercialization of research results in universities.
