Abstract

AbstractUsing the foundation of social exchange theory, we examined underlying mechanisms linking the relationship of high‐performance human resource practices and corporate entrepreneurship (CE). Specifically, we explore why and under what conditions these two concepts are related. A multilevel analysis of data from biotechnology pharmaceutical enterprises in the People's Republic of China revealed that employees' perceived organizational support (POS) mediated the relationship between high‐performance human resource practices and CE. Further, organizational culture moderates the relationship between high‐performance human resource practices and employees' POS. The implications of these findings for both management theory and practice are discussed. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
