研究了企业动态能力如何通过国际动态营销能力影响国际营销绩效,并发现营销领导团队对此有正向调节作用,基于印度455家企业的调查数据。
Purpose This study examines the marketing performance of firms from an international dynamic marketing capability perspective. It also investigates the moderating role of marketing leadership teams to improve organizations' international marketing performance. Design/methodology/approach The authors used dynamic capability view and other related literature to develop a theoretical model, which was validated with the structural equation modelling technique, considering a sample of 455 respondents from Indian firms. The authors also used the multigroup analysis method to examine the moderating impacts of a firm's marketing leadership team on their international marketing performance. Findings There is a positive relationship between a firm's dynamic ability factors and its international dynamic-marketing capabilities. The study also finds that a firm's marketing leadership team has a significant positive moderating impact on improving its international marketing performance. Research limitations/implications The unique theory-based model clearly explains how a firm's dynamic abilities impact international dynamic marketing capability, which then impacts its international marketing performance. This model can help practitioners, researchers and academicians to understand the significance of a firm's international dynamic capability on international marketing performance. The study also helps firms to understand the moderating influence of marketing leadership teams to improve international marketing performance. Originality/value This study adds value to the body of literature on international dynamic marketing, international marketing performance and international marketing knowledge management, on which, until now, few other studies have focused. Thus, this research is unique. The proposed model of international dynamic marketing is also unique with high explanative power.
