基于社会网络理论,以武陵山国家连片特困地区5家新创企业为例,探索贫困地区特殊情境下新创企业创业者关系网络对其组织合法性的影响机制.研究结果表明,在本土贫困地区特殊情境下,创业者关系网络主要包括政治关系网络、商业关系网络和亲友关系网络3个维度,且3个维度间互为补充并交互影响,构成创业者关系网络的三维乘法模型;创业者关系网络对新创企业获取组织合法性具有显著积极影响;良好的创业者关系网络有利于包容性商业模式的构建;构建包容性的商业模式有助于新创企业获取组织合法性.研究结果从微观层面阐释了贫困地区独特情境下新创企业组织合法性的获取机理,不仅是对现有组织合法性理论研究的有效补充,也为我国扶贫实践工作提供了新的思路和借鉴.
A Multi-case study based on five new ventures in Wulin Mountain region, a nation-level poverty-stricken area, is taken to explore the effect of the entrepreneur network on the organizational legitimacy. It is found that in the poverty-stricken area, (1) the entrepreneurs network mainly in- cludes three dimensions, namely political connection, business connection, friends and relatives, a- mong which the complementation and interaction constitutes a three-dimension multiplicity model of the entrepreneur network; (2) the entrepreneur network has a significant positive effect on acquisition of organizational legitimacy; (3) the entrepreneur network of a new venture contributes to forming in- clusive business model; (4) formation of an inclusive business model contributes to the acquisition of organizational legitimacy. From a management perspective, the study illustrates in micro-level the mechanism of acquisition of organizational legitimacy for the new ventures in poverty-stricken area. While complementing the theoretical research on organizational legitimacy, it suggests a new thought for poverty relief practice in China.
