We explore the concept of organizational hybridity from the perspective of the Judgment-Based Approach to entrepreneurship (JBA). The JBA provides much-needed microfoundations for hybridity in the form of a more nuanced, action-based view of the market mechanism in shaping enterprises. Rather than a problem of conflicting logics at the organizational level, hybridity is redefined as entrepreneurial judgment at the individual level about combinations of monetary and psychic profit. Viewed this way, hybridity is a universal characteristic of real-world enterprises rather than a defining feature of a specific subset of them. This approach thus ultimately reshapes our understanding of hybridity and suggests an alternative view that is less conflictual and insular, and more conciliatory and integrated. It also sheds light on various problems facing such enterprises, including strategy formation, practical wisdom, normative pressures, mission drift, entrepreneurial groups, and public policy. Hybrid enterprises are said to combine different logics or orientations within an organization. These logics are typically described as either economic or social, and are usually conceived as existing in inherent tension with each other; hence, hybrid enterprises are neither conventional monetary profit-seeking businesses nor purely social or charitable organizations, but some awkward, possibly paradoxical combination of both. The best-known and most frequently studied types of hybrids are social enterprises, which straddle the line between monetary profit-seeking and the pursuit of broader social goals or social value.

探索混合性的微观基础：基于判断的方法


我们从基于判断的创业方法（JBA）的角度探讨了组织混合性的概念。 JBA 以对塑造企业的市场机制更加细致、基于行动的观点的形式，为混合性提供了急需的微观基础。混合性不再是组织层面上逻辑冲突的问题，而是被重新定义为个人层面上关于金钱和精神利润组合的企业家判断。从这个角度来看，混合性是现实世界企业的普遍特征，而不是其中特定子集的定义特征。因此，这种方法最终重塑了我们对混合性的理解，并提出了一种较少冲突和孤立、更加和解和整合的替代观点。它还揭示了这些企业面临的各种问题，包括战略制定、实践智慧、规范压力、使命漂移、创业群体和公共政策。混合型企业据说在组织内结合了不同的逻辑或方向。这些逻辑通常被描述为经济逻辑或社会逻辑，并且通常被认为存在于彼此内在的张力之中；因此，混合型企业既不是传统的追求金钱利润的企业，也不是纯粹的社会或慈善组织，而是两者的某种尴尬的、可能是自相矛盾的组合。最著名和最常研究的混合类型是社会企业，它跨越了追求金钱利润和追求更广泛的社会目标或社会价值之间的界限。
