Gentlemen seek harmony but not uniformity: The heterogeneity of entrepreneurial team and organizational resilience

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the association of the heterogeneity of entrepreneurial team with organizational Resilience. In an uncertain environment, whether new ventures can form entrepreneurial resilience at the organizational level in adverse events becomes the key to sustainable development. Based on the theory of heterogeneous advantage and identity characteristics, this manuscript constructed a research framework of “Structure-Behavior-Result” and described the mechanism and boundary conditions of the heterogeneity of entrepreneurial team affecting organizational resilience in detail. The role of Confucian traditional culture as a moderator has also been analyzed. Data has been obtained from 390 entrepreneurs in China. All hypotheses were tested using moderated mediation model. It has been found that the heterogeneity of entrepreneurial team has positive effect on organizational resilience. It has also been discovered that cross-boundary search behavior acted as a partial mediator between the heterogeneity of entrepreneurial team and organizational resilience. The Confucian traditional culture strengthens the relationship between them. The results are helpful in understanding the internal mechanism of the heterogeneity of entrepreneurial team affecting organizational resilience. Theoretical and practical implications have been highlighted and future research suggestions have been provided.

“…This paper expounds and analyzes how to use the concept of "harmony between man and nature" in a modern landscape environment and demonstrates and explains it with examples. First, "Harmony between Heaven and Man" will produce ecological space for life, close ties between clansmen and regions, meet the needs of a self-sufficient smallscale peasant economy in settlements and embody regional, economic and ecological characteristics in space construction (Shan, Tian, 2022).With the symbiosis of man and nature as the design principle, the living environment can conform to the laws of nature and social development and create a sustainable and inclusive modern urban landscape ecosystem. Then the ancient planners, designers and gardeners imitated nature and sought harmony between the "Heaven Way" and "Humanity".…”
