dc.description.abstract | While the origins of strategic entrepreneurship (SE) can be clearly traced and defined, the current conceptualizations of the construct and its boundaries are far less clear. There is still much confusion about SE, and many potential gaps exist in the field. It becomes less clear whether SE is a subfield within the entrepreneurship discipline, a subset of strategic management or of corporate entrepreneurship, or an entirely separate domain that simultaneously or sequentially straddles entrepreneurship and strategy. The primary contributions of this research are the definition of strategic entrepreneurship’s boundaries and the identification of the five critical dimensions of strategic entrepreneurship: 1. The balance between exploration (i.e. opportunity-seeking behaviors) and exploitation (i.e. advantage-seeking behaviors), where the former emerges from entrepreneurship and the latter emerges from strategy; 2. Value creation; 3. Balancing short-term success with a long-term perspective; 4. The continuous nature of strategically entrepreneurial activity; 5. Innovation | en_US |
