| description | Purpose: This study aims to test and provide a model of antecedents affecting the development of entrepreneurship among employees of Khuzestan Public Libraries Administration.
Methodology: To carry out the present research, a sample of 410 employees, selected by using simple stratified sampling method, were tested. Data collection tools included questionnaires of innovative organizational climate, perceived organizational support, psychological empowerment, organizational creativity, and entrepreneurial behavior in the organization. The research model was tested using the structural equation modeling (SEM) method, utilizing AMOS 21.0.
Findings: The findings indicates that all the direct routes of perceived organizational support and creative organizational climate has a statistically significant relationship with the development of entrepreneurship. By eliminating non-significant routes, the model was modified. Fit indices of structural equation modeling showed the goodness of fit of the modified model. Furthermore, the results showing the indirect relationships, confirmed that these relationships are significant.
Originality/value: Considering the highly unstable and variable work environment and circumstances and emergence of new businesses and competitors, designing an organizational entrepreneurship model for Public Libraries Foundation can serve as a useful solution to assist Foundation's policymakers and managers in the necessary structural and managerial modification needed for developing and strengthening various organizational entrepreneurship contexts in order to survive in the competition. |
