Purpose
Much of the existing research conducted on dynamic capabilities and the microfoundations of innovation has focused either on individual or organizational factors without considering mechanisms. This paper aims to address this “process” gap by developing an integrated conceptual framework based on individual, processual and structural microf...
Purpose
Striving for growth since their early stages, many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly adopting an entrepreneurial behavior based on a rapid and early international expansion. Although some extant research have been done on the dynamic capabilities of SMEs’ accelerated internationalization–born global (BG) SMEs, no study wa...
Different organizational perspectives surrounding social enterprises (SEs) have burgeoned over the past few years. However, integrating financial sustainability with social value remains a “black box” with respect to entrepreneurial strategic decision-making (SDM). Drawing from decision theories and the proactivity perspective of personality-based...
This paper seeks to study the potential impact of board of directors on innovation. It more specifically focuses on directors’ surface level diversity (gender, ethnic and age diversity) and innovation performance based on an international sample of 97 firms totalizing 1027 directors. As hypothesised, our approach revealed that gender diversity has...
Boards’ diversity has been studied mainly through the prism of ethics, which translated into a focus on characteristics such as gender and ethnicity. However, when the goal is to explain organizational outcomes, the cognitive approach seems more pertinent. Thus, rooted in a resource dependency perspective, this paper investigates the potential impa...
en We examine the influence of target‐CEO celebrity on the premium paid by bidders using information asymmetry, uncertainty, and resource‐based‐view perspectives. Studies suggest that CEOs and their firms can suffer from a “burden of celebrity” if they fail to meet heightened performance expectations. We hypothesize that bidders acquire targets led...
L’analyse du fonctionnement des grands groupes de l’industrie du luxe nous a fait découvrir la manière dont ils créent de la valeur pour leurs marques. L’écosystème qui en résulte permet à ces marques de bénéficier d’un avantage de confrérie qui peut s’avérer utile à d’autres organisations.
To understand the competitiveness of the aeronautical and aerospace industry in Mexico (A&A), one must analyze the strategic role it plays in economic growth and the manufacturing sector, through the creation of clusters, technological spillover effects and internationalization. This research analyzes the competitiveness of the industry and how res...
An interview on Formal and Informal competitive intelligence practices with Thomas Fisselier, Director of Market Analytics and Customer Insight, Bombardier Business Aircraft, Canada.
L’objectif de cet article est de proposer un cadre théorique intégrant les capacités dynamiques comme antécédents de l’intelligence stratégique, l’innovation et l’avantage concurrentiel. Les capacités dynamiques d’identification et de saisie des opportunités et leurs fondations respectives, notamment la faculté d’apprentissage, les systèmes et les...
The recent financial crisis brought upon a period of increased information uncertainty for firms and market agents and in the context of mergers and acquisitions, increased information asymmetry between bidders and targets. This led to an overall increase in average acquisition premiums. However, the final realized premium can be moderated through...
Theoretical and empirical advances in international business (IB) depend heavily on archival data obtained from databases. As there has been scant research on the implications of database choice in IB research, we analyzed data from the three most-widely used databases in the field: Compustat Global, Osiris and Worldscope. We examined data coverage...
Purpose
– The purpose of this paper is to examine how security-related issues affect business in an integrated economic space. North America is an interesting case, as Canada and the USA have historically been highly integrated economies.
Design/methodology/approach
– Research that focuses on the relationship between security and business is revie...
International business research often makes use of one of three databases: Standard and Poor’s Compustat, Bureau Van Dijk’s Osiris, and Thomson/Reuter’s Worldscope. Our study examines the comparability of the data provided by these sources, and whether choice of database may influence empirical results. Our results suggest that, depending upon the...
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to organize the theoretical landscape surrounding explanations of the impact asymmetry and heterogeneity on inter‐firm relationships, especially alliances.
Design/methodology/approach
A conceptual framework integrating the resource‐based view, transaction cost economics and industrial organization is put forth...
