Firm Resources and Sustained Competitive Advantage
基于战略资源在企业间异质分布且稳定的假设,探讨企业资源与持续竞争优势的关系,提出价值、稀缺性、可模仿性和可替代性四个指标,并分析其对其他商业学科的启示。
Understanding sources of sustained competitive advantage has become a major area of research in strategic management. Building on the assumptions that strategic resources are heterogeneously distributed acrossfirms and that these differences are stable over time, this article examines the link betweenfirm resources and sustained competitive advantage. Four empirical indicators of the potential of firm resources to generate sustained competitive advantage-value, rareness, imitability, and substitutability-are discussed. The model is applied by analyzing the potential of severalfirm resourcesfor generating sustained competitive advantages. The article concludes by examining implications of this firm resource model of sustained competitive advantage for other business disciplines.
