TY - JOUR T1 - Entrepreneurial orientation as a mediator of ADHD–Performance relationship: A staged quasi-replication study JF - Journal of Business Venturing Insights Y1 - 2022 A1 - Shirokova,Galina Shirokova A1 - Shakina,Elena A1 - Gerasymenko,Violetta KW - Strategy & Entrepreneurship AB - The entrepreneurship literature has suggested the criticality of replicating findings along with the potential for nuance when examining relationships within emerging market contexts. In this study, we seek to reproduce the findings of Yu et al. (2021) concerning entrepreneurial orientation (EO), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and firm performance using a sample of Russian SMEs. We conduct a quasi-replication study, systematically changing the data, measures, and construct within our empirical models. The results of our study are partly in line with the original study's findings: we did not find a significant relationship between hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms and EO. However, when we considered different sub-dimensions of EO (innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking), managers with hyperactivity/impulsivity ADHD symptoms exhibited greater innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking, while managers with inattention ADHD symptoms exhibited opposite effects. We discuss the extent to which the effects of ADHD on firm performance in developed economies, as mediated by EO, are generalizable within an emerging economy.

The Case of Venture Capital Firms JF - International Small Business Journal Y1 - 2019 A1 - Gerasymenko,Violetta KW - Strategy & Entrepreneurship AB - Ability to accurately predict the outcomes of investments in new projects is recognized as an important antecedent of organizational success. Yet, despite the extensive research on resource-allocation decisions and forecasting, we know little about how accumulated experience shapes the accuracy of forecasts. In this study, we investigate the influence of success and failure experiences on the accuracy of venture capital predictions of the outcomes of their portfolio companies. We also explore the moderating influence of an important organizational factor, the size of a decision-making team. Our theory and findings highlight that success and failure experiences have significant and varying impact on the accuracy of organizational predictions. By examining these novel relationships, we extend theorizing about forecasting and learning, and bring novel insights to the field of entrepreneurship and venture capital.

KW - Strategy & Entrepreneurship AB - This study investigates what leads managers to allocate constrained
the cognitive effort towards new versus familiar aspects of a business. We
explore this question in the context of venture capitalists’ (VCs) advice-giving
to their portfolio companies on business topics on which they have
advised other ventures in the past, versus on topics new to the VC that
may be outside their areas of expertise. We use both demand-side
(venture-driven) and supply-side (VC-driven) perspectives to build a novel
theory about the antecedents of cognitive effort underlying advice-giving.
By empirically testing our theory using a novel dataset, we find that both
perspectives explain important aspects of advice-giving dynamics for VCs.
This supports the idea that VCs, facing dynamic environments and capacity
constraints, definitely respond to stimuli from ventures, but also that VCs
change their behavior as they accumulate experience in ways that reflect
expanding confidence in their ability to add value and concerns about overextension
of their efforts, depending on the valence of VC experience. Our
findings provide novel insights to the antecedents of cognitive effort and to
research on the VC-venture relationship by exploring the dynamics of how
these advice-giving relationships evolve over time as VCs gain experience.

KW - Strategy & Entrepreneurship AB - This study extends extant research on business model change by examining the impact of venture capital firms (VCFs) on the performance of young ventures that have substantially changed their business model. The analysis, using a unique dataset of 163 venture capital-backed portfolio companies (PFCs), reveals a positive relationship between the scope of VCF involvement and PFC performance. Furthermore, the VCFs’ experience with business model change and the recruitment of an outside CEO to the PFC both increase the positive impact of VCF involvement. These findings have implications for theory and practice. VL - 9 CP - 1 U2 - a U4 - 86978603008 ID - 86978603008 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - What Makes Venture Capitalists Look Beyond Common Practices?

of founder–CEO replacement shortly after they invest in a new venture. Moreover, we examine
how the expected time-to-exit moderates these relationships. Our findings show that the
likelihood of founder–CEO replacement upon receiving venture capital funding is significantly
greater if a VCF perceives this company as a potential IPO as opposed to a trade sale, and this
likelihood increases if the forecasted time-to-exit is short. We also illustrate how the breadth of
advice varies as a function of the forecasted IPO and time-to-exit.
