Research on the Mechanism of Structural Embeddedness Influcence on Enterprise Competitive Intelligence Performance postprint

Abstract: [Purpose/significance] Social network is inseparable from enterprise competitive intelligence activity. By exploring the formation of structural embeddedness and its impact on intelligence performance, the mechanism model of structural embeddedness affects intelligence performance is constructed to provide support for enriching competitive intelligence theory and enhancing the intelligence capability of enterprises. [Method/process] This paper took the enterprise that understand and engage in intelligence work as the research object, and used the questionnaire and structural equation model fitting method to analyze the mechanism of network scale,network status and network density affecting intelligence performance. [Result/conclusion] It was found that competitive intelligence work requires structural embeddness. Moreover, network scale expansion is particularly beneficial for identifying, screening and filtering out the needded intelligence.
