Rethinking research methods for the resource-based perspective: isolating sources of sustainable competitive advantage
指出可持续竞争优势的来源在于组织内部效应，并认为传统战略研究方法无法清晰揭示这些来源。以组织文化为例，提出了一个四步研究框架来分离这些组织效应。
An exploration of traditional perspectives and contemporary propositions regarding sustainable competitive advantage points to the conclusion that the locus of advantage is located specifically within organizational effects. The key issue emerges that research investigating sources of sustainable competitive advantage must be done not only on organizations but also in organizations. The fallout from this conclusion is, however, that the research methodologies traditionally used in strategy research will not unambiguously uncover these sources of sustainable advantage. Using organizational culture as an example of a possible source of sustainable advantage within a resource-based paradigm, a four-step research framework is suggested for isolating these organizational effects.
