📚 New Study on Impact of Community-based Enterprises in Journal of Business Venturing Bjoern Mitzinneck, Dr. Jana Coenen, Florian Noseleit & Christian Rupietta (2024) Impact creation approaches of community-based enterprises: A configurational analysis of enabling conditions Link to #OpenAccess: https://lnkd.in/djmFAz9R Highlights: ▶️ Our study informs how community-based enterprises (CBEs) can generate local impact based on available local conditions. ▶️ No single condition is necessary or (by itself) sufficient for impact creation. ▶️ CBEs can build upon various condition combinations that can help deal with a barrier (lacking condition). ▶️ CBEs enhance resourcefulness by passing barriers with Circumventing and overcoming them with Compensating strategies. ▶️ CBEs engage communities by highlighting benefits (Opportunity-anchoring) or emphasizing relationships (Community-anchoring). Abstract: This study investigates which local conditions enable community-based enterprises (CBEs) to create impact. Advancing our limited understanding of the various contexts that enable CBEs to tackle societal issues locally, we investigate supportive conditions across 77 CBEs driving the energy transition in their geographic community. Through qualitative comparative analysis, we identify four condition configurations for CBE impact creation. Across these configurations, we reveal transferable mechanisms helping CBEs to engage community members (Opportunity- and Community-anchoring) and handle the absence of a supportive condition (Circumventing and Compensating). Our study suggests how CBEs can combine these mechanisms to create impact in varied local contexts.

Recent research in #JBV explores the relative efficacy of different framing tactics for adopting new entrepreneurial practices in poverty contexts. Specifically, scholars at @University of Alberta, University of Michigan - Stephen M. Ross School of Business, York University, HEC Montréal compared two framing tactics: within-logic contrasting and cross-logic analogizing using a randomized design. Their findings reveal that "it is more effective to ask microentrepreneurs to do things they are already good at doing at home like experimenting with recipes or jury-rigging gardening innovations, and just translate those skills into their business, a cross-logic analogizing approach." "The results of this research were put into immediate practice: The NGO partner on the research, trained more than 7,000 more microentrepreneurs in Sri Lanka using the insights and materials developed for this field experiment, and used these insights to adapt their training programs in other locations around the world."
