Abstract Based on the perspective of middle-level managers, this study draws on the theory of the basic view of attention and applies the grounded theory research method to analyze and build the process mechanism model of exploratory internal entrepreneurship in state-owned enterprises.The model dynamically expounds the three strategic stages of exploratory entrepreneurship of state-owned enterprises under the promotion of middle managers:the motivation formation stage, the system screening stage and the embedded sales stage.Firstly, with fade away of "policy dividend" and the orientation of middle managers towards individual entrepreneurship led to exploratory changes in state-owned enterprises.Secondly, the middle-level managers conduct institutional screening of exploratory entrepreneurial opportunities according to the attention allocation mechanism.Finally, through the four levels of institution, self, peer, and top manager, the attention of state-owned enterprises can be focused and exploratory entrepreneurship can be realized.The results not only enrich the research on internal entrepreneurship, but also provides inspiration for how to stimulate the management practice of middle managers in internal entrepreneurship.
