How Do “Resource Bundles” Develop and Change in New Ventures? A Dynamic Model and Longitudinal Exploration
基于资源基础理论,纵向追踪三家快速成长的新创企业,分析其关键资源随时间的变化类型与模式,并关联短期绩效。
According to recent studies applying Resource-Based Theory [RBT] to entrepreneurial firms (e.g. Chandler & Hanks, 1994; Brush & Greene, 1996), in the early stages of new venture development it is the identification and acquisition of resources—rather than deployment or allocation activities—that is crucial for the firm's long-term success (Stevenson & Gumpert, 1985). This study explores that relationship longitudinally, tracking salient resources in three rapidly growing new ventures, and analyzing how these resources change over time. Our findings identify the most common types of salient resources, the primary types of changes in resource and resource bundles, and a pattern linking the type of change with short-term performance results in each firm.
