New Strategy

In this paper, we study how entrepreneurial and strategic processes develop in a public-sector organisation through a theoretical lens of Strategic Entrepreneurship (SE). Previous literature on SE practices identified a number of organisational aspects—such as organisational culture, structure, and entrepreneurial leadership—that are important to manage in order to benefit from new opportunities and strategic actions. So far, there is little knowledge about SE practices in the public sector and their possible consequences. There are also few qualitative studies in the field of SE, though arguments have been made for it. Our study is based on a longitudinal and qualitative process approach focusing on the work of the Swedish Public Employment Service’s (SPES) efforts to realise its new strategy through entrepreneurial and strategic processes. The results showed that there are several organisational tensions in relation to the processes of entrepreneurship. We have empirically contributed to previous literature by studying the SE practices of simultaneously balancing the processes of entrepreneurship and strategy. We have also contributed to a more nuanced discussion of the complexity of implementing SE practices and their relationship to organisational culture, structure and entrepreneurial leadership.

Strategic Vision

Entrepreneurial behavior within an organization is deemed relevant as an instrument to foster organizational growth, develop a strategic vision and create an energetic work environment because of its valuable impact on the performance of service. Beneficial display of entrepreneurial behavior by organizational members contributes to the venture significant of an organization. Although multiple kinds of research suggest the importance of individual entrepreneurial behavior in organizations, an empirical study on its predictors, particularly within the public sector is still infancy. Thus, the paper aims to provide an integrated review of the role of personal characteristics (in the form of entrepreneurial leadership, self-efficacy, and career adaptability) on entrepreneurial behavior among Malaysian public sector’s managers, which could subsequently exhibit the performance of the excellent services.
