“…Similarly, social capital has also been considered an indicator of resilience and a buffer to stress and adversity (McKibbin et al, 2016; Southwick et al, 2016). Jahanshahi, Maghsoudi, and Nawaser (2020) have also indicated that social capital has a positive effect on employees' resilience.…”

The study examined whether online and offline social capital and offline social support are associated with less perceived stress in 403 undergraduate Greek college students through the mediating role of resilience and life satisfaction. Gender differences were also explored. A path analysis explored the relationships among the study variables and multi‐group analysis explored gender differences. Perceived stress was predicted indirectly by offline social support and offline bonding social capital through resilience and life satisfaction and directly by online bonding. However, offline bonding was associated with reduced resilience and life satisfaction, whereas social support was associated with increased levels of both. Interestingly, whereas offline bonding was associated with reduced perceived stress through resilience for women, for men it occurred through life satisfaction, and it was primarily resilience for women and life satisfaction for men that predicted reduced perceived stress. It was concluded that different personal ties/relationships are associated with perceived stress through diversified pathways and the pathways are different for men and women. Offline social support between closely tied persons is positively associated and offline bonding is negatively associated with the inner resources for a person to cope with stress, whereas online bonding is beneficial in directly decreasing stress.

PurposeAlthough the literature has somewhat discussed social capital and knowledge sharing, the mediating and moderating mechanisms that influence team workers to move from connecting with one another to building social capital and consequently engaging in knowledge sharing still remain largely understudied. For that reason, this study aims to develop a holistic research framework that links social capital to knowledge sharing with positive affective tone as a mediator and hypercompetition as a moderator.Design/methodology/approachDrawing upon the social capital theory and the affective events theory (AET), this study proposes a research framework to assess how social capital factors influence knowledge sharing with the mediation of positive affective tone and the moderation of hypercompetition in high-tech teams. This study obtains survey data based on 330 questionnaires of working professionals from 66 high-tech teams in Taiwan, in which each team comprises four members and their team leader.FindingsThe empirical results of this study show that social interaction, shared vision and trust are positively related to knowledge sharing via the mediation of positive affective tone. Moreover, hypercompetition has positive moderating effects on the relationships between social interaction and positive affective tone as well as between trust and positive affective tone.Originality/valueThis study expands the previous literature to study through what mediating mechanism the effects of different social capital factors on knowledge sharing can be effectively realized and whether there exists any critical moderator that influences these effects.

“…In general, entrepreneurial recognition means that an incentive is a mixture of social factors and external conditions and the subjective opinions and ideas of the entrepreneur (Phillips and Tracey, 2007;Gilmore et al 2020). There are possibilities for producing new goods, services, systems, business models and strategies that offer entrepreneurs the opportunity to profit from the gap between the cost of manufacturing and the price of revenue (Bojica et al 2012;Werhahn et al 2015;Crick et al 2020;Sadiku-Dushi and Ramadani, 2020;Jahanshahi et al 2020). The opportunities arise from various sources: emerging technologies, unresolved challenges, demand for products, business model development, restructuring of the industry, changing market perceptions, innovation and recombination of knowledge.…”

“…Owing to the cancellation of orders from customers, some entrepreneurs will have to close down new start-ups, while many retailers have raised the product price due to COVID-19. Socially oriented entrepreneurs continuously improve every single ethical decision in making their marketing decisions (Sushil, 2015 ; Jahanshahi et al 2020 ) during the COVID-19 crisis. In this respect, they should rely on the technologies that execute their orders precisely and in a robust manner.…”

The prime concern of this study is to explore how technology influences entrepreneurial marketing decisions during the world pandemic (COVID-19). The study uses a sample of 127 SMEs from Bangladesh. Data were collected by sending out questionnaires electronically and by mail. Smart PLS (SEM) 3.0 was used to analyse the data following the quantitative method. The study reveals positive and significant relationships between entrepreneurial opportunity recognition, opportunity development and opportunity exploitation with their entrepreneurial marketing decisions. It also claims that entrepreneurial passion mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial opportunity recognition and opportunity development with their entrepreneurial marketing decisions. However, entrepreneurial passion does not mediate the relationship between entrepreneurial opportunity exploitation and entrepreneurial marketing decisions. The study offers researchers a broader and more wide-ranging view of the importance of artificial intelligence in small firms. Researchers, educators and practitioners will benefit from the findings. The analyses are more complex and varied than the methodologies used in most of the limited previous research.
