Comments and Suggestions for Authors

I would appreciate the editor for providing me an opportunity to review the article “Exploring the Synergy of Ambidextrous Leadership, Organizational Agility, and Entrepreneurial Orientation: Unleashing Product Innovativeness in the AI Industry of the Yangtze River Delta, China”. The paper is overall interesting, and the literature review is strong. However, some details are missing, which makes me a bit concerned. I hope the authors can solve all the issues during the revision.

0. The research motivation is somewhat unclear.

1. Please clarify the contribution more specifically. Some related work should be compared with the current paper.

2. Please add some notations on Figure 1 to show how each component corresponds to the hypothesis and the potential positive or negative effect.

3. I wonder if the respondents and AI firms considered in this paper are representative enough. Please provide more details for this.

4. How are the measurements in Table 1 are designed? Please provide some guidelines for the measurements.

5. I see no Table 6 in this paper.

6. I wonder if the raw data and code can be attached to enhance the reproducibility.

The article investigates how ambidextrous leadership (AL) can foster product innovativeness in the AI industry of China's Yangtze River Delta through the lenses of organizational agility (OA) and entrepreneurial orientation (EO). The research employs a quantitative method with a sample of 405 usable questionnaires. The study aims to understand the interactive effects of these three dimensions (AL, OA, EO) on enhancing product innovation. Upon thorough testing of the hypotheses and meticulous scrutiny of the methodology, it is my pleasure to extend my warmest congratulations to the authors for their outstanding work. I am pleased to report that the study is devoid of any areas of weakness or methodological inaccuracies, which is a testament to the authors' meticulousness and dedication.
