  摘要：An effective strategy formation capability is a complex organizational resource-a dynamic capability that should lead to superior performance. Strategy scholars have examined the strategy formation capability from many perspectives. However, no study has examined a comprehensive model of strategy formation in the context of the firm's strategic orientation. We develop and examine such a model. The results show that strategic orientation moderates the relationship between different elements of ...
• Modularity in organizational structure: The reconfiguration of internally developed and acquired business units AI翻译

  摘要：This paper explores changes in organizational structure and distinguishes between units' origins. Unit reconfiguration is the addition of units to, deletion of units from, and recombination of units within the firm. This study compares the reconfiguration of internally developed vs. acquired units, explores what forms of unit recombination are common, and observes whether firms pursue recombination before divestiture. Theoretical support is drawn from the dynamic capabilities perspective, rese...
• The impact of empirical tests of transaction cost economics on the debate on the nature of the firm AI翻译

  摘要：Transaction cost economics (TCE), as developed and operationalized by Oliver Williamson, is one of the most prominent and influential developments in the social sciences. In recent years, on the basis of many empirical studies, it has been claimed that the evidence has corroborated TCE. If so, this would have major implications for the debate between TCE and other approaches to understanding the nature of the firm. In this paper we submit the most prominent TCE empirical work to critical scrut...
• Minding your distance: How management consulting firms use service marks to position competitively AI翻译
  作者：Semadeni, M

  摘要：This research examines the dyadic dynamics of positioning (i.e., determining where to locate relative to rivals) of services by consulting firms. Positioning near to or far from competitors offers both advantages and disadvantages in terms of competition, legitimacy uncertainty, and spillovers, with recent research suggesting that firms seek balance between these various forces. Using a sample of service mark filings by consulting firms, I examine the effects of similarity, age, size, and pros...
• Business segment performance redux: A multilevel approach AI翻译
  作者：Hough, JR
  作者单位：University of Tulsa
  摘要：Over the last 20 years, strategy scholars have explored the relative influence of industry and corporate effects on business segment performance. The present research acknowledges the inherent multilevel, cross-classified nature of the data and demonstrates that results are not robust to statistical method. Using 1995-99 data from 'operating segments,' the multilevel analysis presented in this article found that (1) business segment effects explain twice as much variance in business segment pe...
