This dissertation thesis examined the relationship between organizational structure and educational entrepreneurship within K-12 public education institutions. Specifically, the research question which guided this study was: What is the relationship between four dimensions of organizational structure (i.e., management support, work discretion, rewards/reinforcement, and time availability) and educational entrepreneurship in K-12 public education institutions? Four related hypotheses sought to investigate the predictive ability of structural variables. Additionally, a conceptual model of education entrepreneurship in K-12 public education institutions was proposed within this study. Quantitative data collected from an electronic survey was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistic procedures. A qualitative open-ended response item was also provided to study participants in order to capture any additional information including emerging elements of educational entrepreneurship which were not anticipated prior to the study.

520 $a This dissertation thesis examined the relationship between organizational structure and educational entrepreneurship within K-12 public education institutions. Specifically, the research question which guided this study was: What is the relationship between four dimensions of organizational structure (i.e., management support, work discretion, rewards/reinforcement, and time availability) and educational entrepreneurship in K-12 public education institutions? Four related hypotheses sought to investigate the predictive ability of structural variables. Additionally, a conceptual model of education entrepreneurship in K-12 public education institutions was proposed within this study. Quantitative data collected from an electronic survey was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistic procedures. A qualitative open-ended response item was also provided to study participants in order to capture any additional information including emerging elements of educational entrepreneurship which were not anticipated prior to the study.
520 $a Results from this study confirmed internal dimensions of organizational structure as a significant predictor of educational entrepreneurship, subsequently validating organizational structure as an identified antecedent of educational entrepreneurship within the proposed conceptual model. Additionally, three of the four hypotheses were confirmed in this study. A significant positive correlation was found between management support, work discretion, rewards/reinforcement and educational entrepreneurship. Time availability was not significantly correlated with educational entrepreneurship. Furthermore, management support and rewards/reinforcement were the primary predictors of educational entrepreneurship within this study.
520 $a Additional findings on special populations (i.e., charter schools, Golden Bell winners) were noteworthy. These findings included the lack of significant differences between charter school and non-charter schools on organizational structure as well as the emergence of significant differences between Golden Bell winners and non-Golden Bell winners on organizational structure and reported levels of educational entrepreneurship.
520 $a Findings from this study were significant as there were numerous implications for policy and practice. First, this study underscored the importance of continued policy reform efforts as a catalyst for change and innovation in public education. Additionally, findings from this study demonstrated the potential role of educational leaders as buffering agents between district-level bureaucratic structures and/or processes and school site organizational structure and/or processes. Furthermore, findings from this study recognized educational leaders as having the strongest predictive power on school innovation. For instance, educators were more likely to produce small and large scale school innovation when they perceived management to support their endeavors. Management support was found to be evidenced through establishing organizational priority on school innovation through messaging platforms, collaborative decision making mechanisms, teacher empowerment, entrepreneurial school goals and/or values, and allocation of resources.
