Abstract: Abstract This paper employs multiple theoretical perspectives — resource-and knowledge-based views as well as social network theory — to explore the dynamics of guanxi in the context of Chinese entrepreneurial firms. We propose a dynamic model and offer multiple propositions for researchers to examine the role of guanxi for knowledge management and decision-making at various developmental stages of such firms.
