- PublicationRestriction temporaireMoney talks: The impact of investors’ networks on entrepreneurs’ success(2021-7-5)
; This paper analyzes the role of investors’ network centrality on the company in which they are investing. Our longitudinal (19682020, across industries) study shows that an investor with a central network position is beneficial for entrepreneurs, both preIPO and postIPO. We find that an investor with a central network position increases the likelihood that the investee will obtain subsequent funding, go public, and perform in the long term. We also show that to go public, the startup ideally first needs funding from a central investor – which could even come at the expense of receiving a higher amount from a less central investor – before broadening its investor base to include more investors as it moves toward exit via IPO. We further examine the effect of investor centrality on startup valuation at the time of the IPO and the firm’s short and long term success. - PublicationRestriction temporaireAgency and imprinting in network dynamics: A look across the career life-cycle(2014-10-20)Looking at the evolution of networking behaviours throughout the career life-cycle in a professional service firm (LegalCo) we find distinctive networking foci and activities that come with the tasks and roles of different career stages. Taking a closer look at networking behaviours within each career stage we identify and describe how the networking of high agency (HA) vs. low agency (LA) service professionals differs. We track the differentiation between HA and LA networkers across the career life-cycle from junior associate to partner and identify three overreaching mechanisms of networking agency – seeking out (specific organisational actors), creating imprinting ties and playing on similarities – that account for distinctively different networking paths throughout the career life -cycle. We discuss the career implications and the role of homophily as an underlying groundwork that acts as an enabler or a hurdle to the activation of the identified mechanisms of agency.

They may, however, fly the nest more readily once their quest for growth and development is satisfied
- PublicationRestriction temporaireMind your metaphors: Early warning signals when rolling out strategy(2019)While metaphors are widely used in strategy teaching and development, this study aims to present an approach how to benefit from metaphor analysis in strategy implementation. The authors find that metaphors used by organizational actors in strategy implementation processes carry a great range of implicit meanings and tacit knowledge that – when made explicit and critically examined – may serve as early warning signals to anticipate difficult or problematic developments in the strategy rollout phase.

; - PublicationRestriction temporaireSuddenly I felt like a migrant: Identity and mobility threats facing European self-initiated expatriates in the UK under Brexit(2022-1-1)
; ; Oliver, DavidIn recent years, several countries have undertaken political initiatives aimed at reducing immigration. For self-initiated expatriates living in these countries, we lack a clear understanding of how these initiatives are interpreted and responded to. The United Kingdom’s 2016 “Brexit” referendum decision to leave the European Union presents an example of one such initiative potentially impacting the mobility, UK identification, and future aspirations of European SIEs living in the UK. We draw on 41 in-depth interviews with SIEs from 18 European countries who had voluntarily chosen to relocate to the UK to analyze how they interpreted the Brexit vote, as well as to assess its impact on their identities and migration lans. We identify four types of SIEs based on their perceived mobility and identification with the UK at the time of the Brexit referendum, each of which was associated with a distinct reaction pattern related to the outcome of the Brexit referendum. Our findings have implications for the study of SIEs, as well as for talent managers charged with their retention. We suggest directions for future research in SIE management. - PublicationRestriction temporaireMechanisms of career agency: A longitudinal perspective(2016)Looking at career agency throughtout the career life-cycle in a professional service firm (LegalCo) we find distinctive practices of career agency that come with the tasks and roles of different career stages. Our findings illustrate how these differences in career agency are related to different dimensions of subjective career success. Tracking patterns of career agency across three career stages from junior associate to partner we identify three overreaching mechanisms of career agency - seeking out (specific organisational actors), creating imprinting ties and playing on similarities - that account for distinctively different career experiences. Our study demonstrates that career ageny is an important concept to explain how specific ties become imprinted and thereby provide benefits across several career stages. Career agency is also a key factor to explain how organisational actors may expoit (or not) homophily in their work context.
