摘要

尽管现有研究表明,环境危机使营利性企业能够开展创业活动,但环境危机与非营利公共部门组织创业活动之间的关系并没有引起研究人员的足够重视。根据政府规则和协议,这些组织在有限的框架内享有有限的灵活性。因此,实施创造性和创新性措施的范围受到这些准则的限制。这就引出了一个关于在公共部门组织中开展创业活动的可能性的相关问题。为了探索此类活动的来源,我们在印度加尔各答的一所公立学校——Kendriya Vidyalaya军械厂Dum Dum进行了参与性案例研究。在新冠肺炎疫情爆发时,学校通常的教学过程已经停止。学校在政府授权的指导框架内采取了各种新颖和创新的措施,以确保教育的连续性。我们的反射过程研究发现,在发生环境危机时,通常在正常时间遵守的严格规则会放松,组织可以灵活地采取各种独特的措施来考虑更广泛的目标。这场危机引发了轰动效应,导致组织在预定义的路径之外实施创业活动。在这个过程中,组织可以挖掘隐藏的潜力,并在各个维度上加强日常运作,使交付机制更加集中和有效。该理论通过提出一个过程模型为现有文献做出了贡献,在该模型中,环境危机是通过创业活动改变现有运营模式的推动者。它还显示了在危机期间在受限环境中进行此类活动的可能性。

Environmental Crisis as an Enabler of Entrepreneurial Activities in a Non-Profit Organization: A Case Study on Kendriya Vidyalaya
Although extant research shows that the environmental crisis enables entrepreneurial activities in for-profit firms, the relationship between the environmental crisis and entrepreneurial activities in the non-profit public sector organizations could not draw sufficient attention from the researchers. These organizations enjoy limited flexibility within a bounded framework under government rules and protocols. Hence, the scope of implementing creative and innovative measures is restricted by those guidelines. It leads to a pertinent question about the possibility of entrepreneurial activities in public sector organizations. To explore the sources of such activities, we conduct participatory case research at a government school—Kendriya Vidyalaya Ordnance Factory Dum Dum, located in Kolkata, India. The usual teaching-learning process in the school has stopped at the onset of the COVID pandemic. The school has undertaken various novel and innovative steps within a guided framework mandated by the government to ensure continuity of education. Our reflexive process study uncovers that the strict rules, usually followed in regular times, are relaxed in the event of an environmental crisis, and the organizations are provided flexibility to adopt various unique measures considering the broader objective. The crisis enacts sensemaking that causes the organizations to implement entrepreneurial activities beyond the pre-defined path. In this process, the organizations can unearth hidden potentials and strengthen their usual operation in various dimensions, making the delivery mechanism more focused and effective. The theorization contributes to the extant literature by proposing a process model in which environmental crisis acts as an enabler to transform the existing mode of operation through entrepreneurial activities. It also shows the possibility of such activities in a restricted setup during a crisis.

期刊介绍: South Asian Journal of Business and Management Cases (SAJBMC) is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual journal of Birla Institute of Management Technology, Greater Noida (India). The journal aims to provide a space for high-quality original research or analytical cases, evidence-based case studies, comparative studies on industry sectors, products, and practical applications of management concepts. The journal likes to publish problem-solving, decisional and applied types of cases. Such cases must have linkage with theory, at least one dilemma (also known as case issue) and a protagonist around whom the case issue will revolve. Publication of pure research, applied research and field studies with empirical data do not fall under the domain of SAJBMC. Fictitious cases are not welcome.
