TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on contextual ambidexterity, i.e., an organization's ability to simultaneously reconcile exploration and exploitation, and describe their idiosyncratic characteristics and explain how their mode of knowledge transmission between exploratory and exploitation domains, based on fluid project structures, serves to generate competitive advantage.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show how an ambidextrous human resource management (HRM) system works in the context of high performance work systems (HPWS) that facilitates the continuous integration of exploration and exploitation in the pursuit of flexibility and efficiency.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze how sensemaking that follows the initiation of change projects relies on the interplay of prospective and retrospective aspects, and show that sensemaking is difficult.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors draw on empirical case-study evidence of a globally operating SME to show how managing the interplay of organizational structure and context enables firms to combine exploration and exploitation for achieving ambidexterity.
