Cooperative Alliances and Competitive Strategies in Small Manufacturing Firms
研究了小型企业的战略姿态与其形成合作关系的倾向之间的互动，发现大多数小型企业确实采用合作策略，且不同战略类型的企业使用方式不同。
This study extends existing work in the area of interorganizational relationships by exploring the interaction between the strategic posture of small firms and their propensity to form cooperative linkages. The most critical finding is that most small firms do use cooperative strategies, and that these strategies are used differentially by different strategic types. However, it is unclear whether there is a direct relationship between the competitive postures, interorganizational strategies, and small firm performance.
