Bounded entrepreneurship and internationalisation of indigenous Chinese private-owned firms (2008, background): “This is consistent with the sociological view that entrepreneurs are embedded in a social context and the interaction between entrepreneurs and their environment plays a major role in shaping their cognitive process, and, consequently, behaviour (Zahra et al, 2005).”
Home Country Institutions and the Internationalization-Performance Relationship (2016, background): “Modeling the role of managerial cognition could shed light on how managers “perceive and construct their industries’ boundaries and opportunities at home and in host countries” (Zahra et al., 2005: 130).”
Recognizing Opportunities for Sustainable Development (2011, background): “These moderating relationships suggest that findings from prior studies that focused on the direct effects of knowledge on opportunity recognition (e.g., Shane; Zahra et al., 2005) may provide an incomplete picture when applied to the recognition of sustainable development opportunities.”
