“…Exploitation has been linked to routines, path dependence, and mechanistic structures, whereas exploration is related to improvisation, creativity, and organic structures [24,89]. Ambidexterity proposes the management of both strategies [90]. O'Reilly and Tushman [84] (p. 324) describe ambidexterity as "the ability of an organization to both explore and exploit-to compete in mature technologies and markets where efficiency, control, and incremental improvement are prized and to also compete in new technologies and markets where flexibility, autonomy, and experimentation are needed."…”

In recent years, firms’ sustainable management has been considered a key factor in the achievement of profits, but few studies analyze the antecedents and effects of eco-innovation. Our study proposes a model to analyze the factors that affect eco-innovation, as well as eco-innovation’s effects on dynamic ambidexterity. To pursue this goal, we developed a research model with panel data from 449 firms over five years from the telecom industry and tested the model using structural equations and partial least squares (PLS). Our results demonstrate the influence of R&D expenditure on eco-innovation. They show a slightly ordered sequence of exploration and exploitation results, indicating that some equilibrium between the two orientations is necessary. The study thus shows that eco-innovation facilitates ambidexterity in that exploration and exploitation alternate dynamically in the search for economic profit.

“…Research Status: Many researchers took ambidextrous learning as an independent variable and studied the relationship between ambidextrous learning and performance. [11][12][13] However, there are still few researches on the factors that promote ambidextrous learning. For example, some researchers believe that ambidextrous learning can be realized through the division of organizational structure.…”

Through formal control and social control, technology platforms can acquire the information knowledge needed for ambidextrous learning of engineering project team, but whether technology platforms influence ambidextrous learning of engineering project team through the intermediary role of ambidextrous control (formal control, social control) is still lack of theoretical and empirical support. In order to explore the influence of the co-use of technology platform and ambidextrous control on the ambidextrous learning of engineering project team, this paper constructs a theoretical framework between the performance of ambidextrous control (formal control, social control) and different types of technology platform (BIM, AI, VR, AR, MR) and different types of learning (exploratory learning, exploitative learning). A questionnaire survey was conducted among 210 project managers. AMOS22.0 and bootstrap software were used for analysis and test, SPSS22.0 was used for hierarchical regression analysis, the results of hierarchical regression analysis show that formal control, social control and the balanced use of both have significant positive correlation with the ambidextrous learning and balanced use of ambidextrous learning of engineering project team. Formal Information Technology Platform (BIM) and Informal Information Technology Platform (AI, VR, AR, MR) have significant positive effects on the ambidextrous learning of engineering project team. The balanced use of formal Information Technology Platform (BIM) and informal Information Technology Platform (AI, AR) has significant positive effects on the ambidextrous learning balance of engineering project team. Formal control and social control mediate the positive correlation between information technology platform (BIM, AI, VR, AR, MR) and ambidextrous learning of engineering project team. In addition, information technology platform (BIM, AI, VR) regulates the impact of formal control and social control on learning (exploratory learning, exploitative learning). Generally speaking, different types of technology platforms and ambidextrous control strategies are still effective for the ambidextrous learning and balance of engineering project team.

“…From a knowledge-searching and innovation perspective, organizational learning can be classified into exploitation learning and exploration learning, and balancing them helps organizations adapt to changing environments and gain competitive advantage (Kane and Alavi 2007;Lee and Huang 2012;March 1991). Empirical results show that organizational learning is positively related to financial and non-financial performance (Dibella et al 1996;Goh et al 2012;Luxmi 2014) and becomes a long-term influential mechanism in firms (Jiang et al 2014).…”

This study investigates the functioning mechanisms of how high performance work systems (HPWS) affect organizational performance. We propose that (HPWS) can positively affect organizational performance through the mediating role of entrepreneurial orientation. An organization with high performance work systems can perform better if it enjoys high level of organizational learning. We design and administer a survey questionnaire to high-level executives or founders of companies from manufacturing and service industries and receive 176 valid responses. The results of the empirical data indicate that the relationship between high performance work systems and corporate performance is more positive when organizational learning is stronger. Entrepreneurial orientation partially mediates the relationship between high performance work systems and organizational performance. This study opens new research avenues by extending and incorporating explanations and predictions of HPWS and entrepreneurial orientation, two areas that largely have been considered independently of each other. Implications for practice and directions for future research are provided.
