Conceptualized Research Model and Conceptual Connections

Building from theoretical findings of chapters 2–4, Section 5.1 provides the conceptualized research model for TMC which will serve as the basis for empirical research and to answer RQ1 and RQ2. Furthermore, Section 5.2 summarizes the current theoretical status quo of high-level connections between the concepts HRO, TMT, DIV, NDM, AMB and TMC which serve as the theoretical baseline to understand conceptual relations and as the basis for empirical research conducted to answer RQ3a and RQ3b.
