Strategy, Size and Performance
研究了Miles和Snow的四种战略类型，通过47家企业的实地调查，发现分析型和探索型战略得到支持，而防御型战略证据较少，并指出企业规模能解释战略与绩效关系的差异。
Miles and Snow's four different types of strategy are discussed and operationally defined in terms of three recurring organizational problems. A field study of 47 firms was conducted to investigate the typology and the relationship between the typology, size and performance. Support is provided for the analyzer and prospector strategies but there is less evidence for defenders. Results demonstrate the importance of contingency research and indicate that firm size can explain differences in the relationship between strategy and performance.
