Purpose

Through the lens of resource-based view (RBV), knowledge-based view (KBV) and DCV, this paper aims to investigate the relationship of entrepreneurial leadership (EL) on the project success (PS) and further examines the mediating effect of knowledge infrastructure capability (KIC), knowledge-based dynamic capability (KBDC) and Big data analytic capability (BDAC).

Design/methodology/approach

The data were collected from 467 employees working on project in software companies. The data were evaluated using SMART-PLS, a structural equation modeling (SEM) tool.

Findings

The study revealed a significant impact of EL on the PS, the study also found the significant mediation role of KIC, KBDC and BDAC on the EL and PS relationship.

Originality/value

The research gives valuable insight into the effective role of EL as a contemporary leadership style in project-based firms. Also, this research is one of the first to examine knowledge-oriented dynamic capabilities (DC) as a knowledge fulcrum in project execution. These DC have been empirically proven to facilitate EL in achieving PS and support the firm in competing in an uncertain environment.

创业领导力对项目成功的影响：知识导向动态能力的中介作用

目的

本文旨在通过资源基础观（RBV）、知识基础观（KBV）和DCV视角，探讨创业领导力（EL）与项目成功（PS）的关系，并进一步检验知识的中介作用。基础设施能力（KIC）、基于知识的动态能力（KBDC）和大数据分析能力（BDAC）。

设计/方法论/途径

数据收集自软件公司从事项目的 467 名员工。使用结构方程建模 (SEM) 工具 SMART-PLS 评估数据。

发现

研究揭示了EL对PS的显着影响，研究还发现KIC、KBDC和BDAC对EL和PS关系具有显着的中介作用。

原创性/价值

该研究为 EL 作为当代项目型公司领导风格的有效作用提供了宝贵的见解。此外，这项研究是第一个检验以知识为导向的动态能力（DC）作为项目执行中的知识支点的研究之一。这些DC已被经验证明可以促进EL实现PS并支持公司在不确定的环境中竞争。
