The impact of organizational culture on entrepreneurial orientation: A meta-analysis

Marjolaine Rostain

Journal of Business Venturing Insights, 2021, vol. 15, issue C

Abstract: The importance of organizational culture (OC) on entrepreneurial orientation (EO) has long been of interest to scholars and practitioners. Nevertheless, there remains contradictory results about the impact of OC on EO. Drawing upon the competing value framework (CVF), I conduct a meta-analysis of 70 papers to better understand this relationship. The result highlights first that, contrary to common thinking, there is not only one particular organizational culture that impacts positively EO. Clan, Market and Adhocracy all have a positive impact on EO. Second, even if each of these OC types has a positive impact on EO, the impact on each dimension of EO (Innovativeness, Risk-taking and Proactiveness) may vary. This result reopens the debate about the uni versus multidimensionality of EO.
