This paper analyses organizational ambidexterity (OA) – as defined in terms of exploration and exploitation attainments of knowledge and innovation - its antecedents in terms of organizational context and its consequences in terms of firm performance. It is the first attempt to test an OA model, which combines contextual and realized views of ambidexterity. Findings, based on a 112 response survey, provide empirical evidence of the hypothesis and confirm the positive influence on OA from the organizational context and its role as moderator in relation with firm performance. The paper is also a contribution to the `measure problem` for the OA construct.

Abstract

This paper analyses organizational ambidexterity (OA) – as defined in terms of exploration and exploitation attainments of knowledge and innovation - its antecedents in terms of organizational context and its consequences in terms of firm performance. It is the first attempt to test an OA model, which combines contextual and realized views of ambidexterity. Findings, based on a 112 response survey, provide empirical evidence of the hypothesis and confirm the positive influence on OA from the organizational context and its role as moderator in relation with firm performance. The paper is also a contribution to the `measure problem` for the OA construct.
