Drawing upon institutional theory, this article develops an extended model to test and verify the effects of external institutional pressures on Secure Software Development (SSD) assimilation and the roles of internal critical factors. The empirical results are based on 86 survey data from respondents of related organizations in United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Mainland China who have related project experience about SSD. Results from partial least squares (PLS) analysis suggest that both mimetic and coercive pressures have indirect effects on SSD assimilation with the distal mediation of top management. Normative pressures positively affect SSD assimilation with the full mediation of secure software champion. Results also suggest that secure software champion plays another partial mediation between top management participation and SSD assimilation. This paper highlights the important role of secure software champion for its dually mediating effects on both external and internal forces during SSD assimilation process.

It applies a case study methodology of two contradictory government organizations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: one with successful implementation and the other with a complete failure. The results expose various characteristics such as those related to business leadership and abilities and technological cognition and awareness. The results can be developed into a strategy to enhance awareness as well as top management participation.

Zusammenfassung. Um die komplexe Verbindung zwischen Wesenskennzeichen und Führungserfolg auf Top-Managementebene zu entschlüsseln, bietet der Generalfaktor der Persönlichkeit (GFP) eine interessante, aber bis dato eher selten genutzte Alternative zu herkömmlichen Konzepten der Persönlichkeitspsychologie. Hier setzt die vorliegende Studie an. Sie extrahiert aus den klassischen Dimensionen der Big Five einen übergeordneten Generalfaktor und verknüpft diesen mit den Persönlichkeitsmerkmalen der Dunklen Triade. Die Erhebung bei 320 deutschen Vorständen und Geschäftsführern zeigt, dass sich der Persönlichkeitsfaktor speziell für das Top-Management (GFP-E) durch die Faktorladungen und hinsichtlich der Facettenhierarchie vom herkömmlichen GFP unterscheidet. Der spezifisch für Executives ermittelte GFP-E korreliert positiv mit individuellen Erfolgs- und Zufriedenheitsmaßen sowie mit Narzissmus, einer Dimension der Dunklen Triade. Außerdem zeigen sich negative Zusammenhänge zu Machiavellismus und Psychopathie. Die Ergebnisse erlauben weiterführende Implikationen für die Forschung sowie die Auswahl und Förderung von Managern in der Unternehmenspraxis.
