摘 要: 组织实现双元性——平衡探索和利用行为——对获取竞争优势至关重要,但同时也面临挑战:既不能过度利用已有技术和能力,避免陷入成功陷阱;也不能过度探索全新领域,避免陷入失败陷阱,而是要兼顾两类行为、均衡投入、不偏不倚。作为企业最重要的领导者,CEO的人格特质对此具有重要影响。然而,已有双元性文献和有关CEO自恋、谦卑特质的研究均忽略了这个问题。基于自我调节理论和悖论理论,本文探究兼具自恋和谦卑特质的CEO在实现组织双元性中的作用及其条件,从CEO个体差异视角给出实现双元平衡的新解释。研究发现:(1)经由自我调节,CEO兼具看似矛盾的自恋和谦卑特质,二者取长补短、相互校正,促进探索和利用行为的平衡;(2)高管团队多样性和企业环境动态性会破坏CEO自我调节过程进而抑制CEO双重特质的作用,是上述关系的理论边界。来自江苏省128家企业的588位高管人员的现场问卷调查支持了上述观点。本文拓展了组织双元性的前因研究,丰富了CEO自恋和谦卑特质的战略领导力文献,也对企业创新管理实践有所启发。 To gain a sustainable competitive advantage,it is essential for firms to achieve organizational ambidexterity(OA),which is defined as the balance between exploration and exploitation.However,organizations face dilemmas in this process.On the one side,organizations can not overuse existing technology and capability in order to avoid falling into the success trap.On the other side,organizations can not excessively explore new fields so as to avoid lapsing into the failure trap.Keeping appropriate balance between exploration and exploitation is critical to develop adaptability as well as to produce breakthrough innovation.In the organizational study,prior research has focused on the antecedents of OA such as organizational context,structural design,top management team(TMT)dynamics and collective leadership.However,scholars have little knowledge about how a firm's CEO,as the most important upper-echelon,influences the trade-offs between exploration and exploitation.After all,it is the CEO makes critical decisions on the organizational resource allocation and its outcomes.In the strategic leadership literature,although extant studies have noticed the CEO’s personality of narcissism or humility will separately impact innovation decision making,the joint effect of these two personalities on OA and its contingencies have been largely ignored.Without linking the areas of strategic leadership with OA,scholars may take the risks of oversimplifying the role a CEO’s personality plays in affecting a firm's innovation activities.To fill this gap,our study investigates how a firm CEO who has both narcissism and humility personalities influences organizational ambidexterity.We seek to offer insights about the new antecedent of OA from the CEO’s characteristics perspective.Based on self regulatory theory,we argue the paradoxical personalities of humility and narcissism can co-exist within the CEOs.Driving by self-enhancement,humility will counteract the toxic dimensions of narcissism such as hubris and egocentrics,as well as
