By following the historical case of the world-renowned potter Luce Rie, we study the relationships between the accrual of material expertise, entrepreneurial actions, and successful craft venture outcomes. Drawing from Sennett's material consciousness framework and Fisher's resource-based propositions of effective entrepreneurial actions, we enhance understanding of the material drivers of such actions, how material expertise can contribute to self-imposed constraints, and how these constraints may contribute to positive craft venture outcomes. Our findings thereby contribute to a nuanced understanding of the intimacy between human and material agency in entrepreneurship and reveal a craft approach to managing the tension of novelty and control at the heart of strategic entrepreneurship. Furthermore, our analysis contributes to broader reflection on the definitions of venture success, value generation, and growth.

材料专业知识：手工艺企业家 Lucie Rie 的案例


通过追踪世界著名陶艺家卢斯·里伊 (Luce Rie) 的历史案例，我们研究了材料专业知识的积累、创业行动和成功的工艺风险成果之间的关系。借鉴森尼特的物质意识框架和费舍尔关于有效创业行动的基于资源的主张，我们增强了对此类行动的物质驱动因素的理解，物质专业知识如何有助于自我施加的约束，以及这些约束如何有助于积极的工艺风险成果。因此，我们的研究结果有助于对创业中人与物质代理之间的亲密关系有细致入微的理解，并揭示了管理战略创业核心的新颖性和控制力之间的紧张关系的技巧方法。此外，我们的分析有助于更广泛地反思风险成功、价值创造和增长的定义。
