摘要：

Managers that scan the environment in their boundary spanning roles need to be attentive to the opportunities and challenges that may arise due to changes occurring within the environment. As an industry environment changes, an entrepreneurial management orientation helps firms adapt to changing market conditions. The purpose of this study is to examine the link between management style and environmental scanning. Based on responses from 201 top-level hotel executives, the findings suggest that entrepreneurial managers are more frequent scanners of the environment. (C) 2005 by The Haworth Press, Inc.
