The "open family firm": openness as boundary work in family enterprises Universiteit Hasselt
"Openness" has become an established norm in the contemporary business environment. However, despite the crucial importance of boundaries and boundary work in organization and management theory, openness-as opening up boundaries of family firms and entrepreneurial families in collaborating with external actors-has received only nascent attention in the family business domain. We introduce the notion of openness in the family business field. ...
The dark side of open innovation: Individual affective responses as hidden tolls of the paradox of openness Universiteit Hasselt Universiteit Antwerpen
While creating value in open innovation (OI) requires knowledge sharing, appropriating value in OI entails some closedness and protectiveness.

Such tensions have been scarcely explored at the micro-level, even though it is a crucial piece to fully grasping the paradox of openness. Our study bridges this gap by examining ...

A structural equation model of R&D decision-making is formulated using survey data from 279 Chinese firms.

Consumer responses to different degrees of advertising adaptation: the moderating role of national openness to foreign markets KU Leuven Universiteit Gent Universiteit Antwerpen

We investigate the moderating role of national openness to foreign markets on consumer responses (attitude to ad, brand and purchase intention) to different degrees of advertising adaptation in Belgium, Iran and India. We operationalize three levels of advertising adaptation (standardization, glocalization and adaptation) by manipulating the model (international versus local celebrity) and advertising copy ...
