Download Resource-Based and Evolutionary Theories of the Firm Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Resource-Based and Evolutionary Theories of the Firm: Towards a Synthesis explores the intersection of evolutionary theories of the firm with an emergent body of research in the field of strategic management that has been broadly referred to as the `resource-based view of the firm'. The volume approaches strategic questions from several vantage points, thereby fostering a useful cross-fertilization of ideas. The views presented spring from a variety of sources, namely the principles of strategic management, organisation economics, and population ecology.

Download The link between the resource based theory and corporate politics Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: B, , language: English, abstract: The main focus of the resource based theory of a firm is the acquisition of sustainable competitive advantage over other firms in the industry (Olalla, 1999). The uniqueness of a firm’s resources is considered as the basis for the strategic competitive edge achieved by the firm (Acedo, Barroso, and Galan, 2006). The concept of corporate politics also suggest that individuals express political behaviour targeted at acquiring power or a competitive edge over other individuals aimed at achieving personal or group interests within an organization (Vigoda, 2000). Thus this study seeks to explore a possible linkage between the themes of the resource based theory and the expression of political behaviours within a firm.

Download Resources, Firms, and Strategies Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Strategic management has been increasingly characterized by an emphasis on core competences. Firms are advised to divest unrelated businesses and return to core business. Moreover, competitive advantage is now increasingly seen as a matter of efficiently deploying scarce knowledge resources to product markets. Much of this change in emphasis has occurred because of the emergence of a unified and rigorous approach to strategy, often called the resource-based approach. This Reader brings together extracts from the seminal articles that created this dominant perspective in strategic management. It includes the pioneering work of Selznick, Penrose, and Chandler and more recent writing by Wernerfelt, Barney, Teece, and Prahalad and Hamel.

Download Critically Review how the Resource-based View Has Developed Our Understanding of Strategy Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 75%, University of the West of England, Bristol (Bristol Business School), course: Strategic Management, 17 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: There is no common definition of strategy or the way how to implement it. However, it is common understanding that the purpose of each business1 is to maximise profit and that this is reached through a competitive advantage a firm might have over its rivals. Therefore, strategy should describe a mean to manage and direct a business in its environment towards a favourable market position which offers a competitive advantage (e.g. Rumelt, 1996; Porter, 1996). In this sense, "a firm is said to have a sustained competitive advantage when it is implementing a value creating strategy not simultaneously being implemented by any current or potential competitors and when these other firms are unable to duplicate the benefits of this strategy." (Barney, 1991: 102) However, there are different approaches regarding what strategies need to be based upon to achieve that competitive advantage, i.e. what are the sources for a favourable market position and a competitive advantage.
