Ownership Structure, Strategic Posture, and Firm Growth: An Empirical Examination
研究了所有权结构、战略姿态与企业成长之间的关系，发现战略姿态不因所有权结构而异，且两者对企业成长均无显著影响。
Distinctions among various firm ownership types have gained increasing attention among organizational researchers. The basic premise advanced is that ownership type affects firm processes and outcomes. Extant research, however, has largely addressed the relationship between ownership type and firm performance, with little attention to the means for achieving higher performance. This study investigates the relationships among firms' ownership structure, strategic posture, and firm growth. Strategic posture can provide a firm with a means for attaining a competitive advantage in the marketplace and achieving superior performance. Results indicate that strategic posture does not differ based on the ownership structure of the firm. Additionally, regression analysis demonstrates no effect for ownership structure or strategic posture on firm growth.
