“…Instead, our analysis demonstrates that this external condition has a positive indirect effect on alliance success. By exposing the explicit role of AMC as a fundamental and underpinning component in this mechanism, we add to the emerging stream of literature that investigates business response to political instability (Sidki Darendeli and Hill, 2016; Korbi, Ben‐Slimane and Triki, 2021). Choosing partners under uncertainty (which is based on heuristics by having access to external information) (i.e.…”

“…While the literature suggests that firms in such an environment would seek an alliance as a mechanism to enhance resilience (e.g. by sharing resources and information) (Korbi, Ben‐Slimane and Triki, 2021), there is ambiguity on how the operation within a politically uncertain/unstable environment can shape the behaviours of family firms that embark on alliances. More specifically, such a condition raises questions of how family firms might react when encountering the double uncertainty (linked to the unstable external environment and concerns over losing family control when establishing links with external entities) (Chaib Lababidi et al ., 2020).…”

Socio-emotional wealth preservation (SEW-P) can create a dilemma for family firms when seeking to establish strategic alliance: how to manage the need to establish strategic alliances aimed at obtaining complementary network-based resources (the economic dimension) with the fear that such a move may jeopardize family control and domination (the SEW dimension). To address this dilemma (also labelled as a 'mixed gamble'), we theorized that the concern to preserve SEW (i.e. SEW-P) can contribute to family firms' alliance success being dependent on the leverage of alliance management capability (AMC). We also propose that SEW-P can act as an organizational cognitive enabler for AMC. Yet the positive association between SEW-P and AMC will become stronger when family firms operate in a politically unstable environment. We tested these hypotheses using a unique dataset collected from 302 family firms operating in a politically unstable environment (the Libyan context), and the analysis lends support to our model and predictions. Overall, the study advances the alliance theories and family business literature by adding new insights that explain the effect of non-financial priorities of family firms, and related contingencies, in predicting alliance success.

The tendency of infrastructure projects to be complex, large-scale, and long-term prompts temporary project organizations’ need to have resilience to deal with various risks, uncertainties, and crises. The resource and cognitive capacity of stakeholders are key factors in infrastructure project governance and crisis response in the face of shock generation. Moreover, previous studies on organizational resilience of infrastructure projects have lacked exploration from project governance perspectives. Hence, the objective of this study is to investigate the influence of contractual and relational governance on the organizational resilience of infrastructure projects from the perspectives of resource reconfiguration and organizational cognition. Firstly, this study established a conceptual model through a theoretical background and hypotheses development. Then, a questionnaire was designed for participants in the infrastructure projects to collect data on the respective effects of each variable. A total of 519 complete responses to the questionnaire were collected, and a path model was developed to quantitatively measure the impact of contractual and relational governance on organizational resilience using the partial least squares–structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) method. Finally, the model was validated using reliability and validity testing, hypotheses testing, and mediating effect testing. The results of the study showed that the contractual and relational governance can enhance the level of organizational resilience. Resource reconfiguration and organizational cognition play a mediating role in the relationship between project governance and organizational resilience. This study extends the theoretical research on the impact of project governance on organizational resilience, and deepens the intrinsic link between the two from the perspective of resource reconfiguration and organizational cognition, so as to provide effective theoretical guidance for crisis response and sustainable operation of infrastructure projects.

Organization should perform sense making processes to restore members' social identification that is key to their commitment and performance [25].…”
