The Effect Of Technological Environment And Competitive Strategy On Licensing Decisions, Matthew H. Roy, Sanjiv S. Dugal
The Effect Of Technological Environment And Competitive Strategy On Licensing Decisions, Matthew H. Roy, Sanjiv S. Dugal
WCBT Faculty Publications
The expectation that firms that have a high differentiation strategy will also have low levels of licensing is not supported. For business units (BU) with products in the growth stages, the competitive strategy of the BU did not significantly affect licensing decisions. The results are not too surprising when one considers new technological advancements and global competition. A company may perceive its technological advantage as transitory and expect rapid imitation by competitors. In such a case, the company might want to license the innovation as quickly as possible to gain global acceptance. It is shown that when products mature, the …

Achieving Potential In Hospital Mergers, Sister Nancy Linenkugel
Achieving Potential In Hospital Mergers, Sister Nancy Linenkugel
Student Scholarship
This applied research project focused on hospital mergers and the combination of "business" and "people" factors that allow full potential to be achieved. The business factors included finances and the "people" factors related to culture and practices. We sought to examine whether or not both factors were necessary in order for the merger to reach full potential. "Merger" was defined as the creation of a single entity out of two in which there is movement of services or staff. A "merger stabilization model" was developed that predicted potential merger synergy as dependent upon "people" fit and "business" fit. Four merged …

Habitus Wars And Field(S) Of Dreams: Using Bourdieu To Reframe The Sense Of A Crisis, Louann Hofheins Cummings
Habitus Wars And Field(S) Of Dreams: Using Bourdieu To Reframe The Sense Of A Crisis, Louann Hofheins Cummings
Student Scholarship
The paper illustrates the application of Pierre Bourdieu's oeuvre to a qualitative research project regarding organizational change. Considerable attention is given to the interaction of field delineation, capital stakes struggle, interests, and individual/class habitus at both a church and a medical college. It is posited that a focus on field analysis considers the sources of capital struggle in a given realm. This, in turn, grants a researcher a new way to analyze who participates in these struggles, what prized capital stimulates interest, and how action and prctices are subsequently engendered. This body of work suggests that agents and/or classes have …

Competitive Interaction: The Influence Of Strategic Group Structure, Sherry M. Burlingame
Competitive Interaction: The Influence Of Strategic Group Structure, Sherry M. Burlingame
Theses and Dissertations in Business Administration
The assertion that competitive interaction is a central focus of business strategy emerged from the Strategic Management Research Group (SMRG) at the University of Maryland. The premise of this perspective is that competition among firms can be modeled using communication theory to explain how firms in an industry interact. Competition, in this framework, is represented as the series of actions and counteractions, termed responses, that firms undertake to position themselves in their industry. Thus, in this model, interaction (actions and responses) equates with competition. Studies conducted by the members of the SMRG have outlined the relationship of key variables within …
The Long-Term Performance Of Initial Public Offerings (Ipos): Venture Capitalists, Reputation Of Investment Bankers, And Corporate Structure, Halit Gonenc
Theses and Dissertations in Business Administration
The Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) literature has uncovered the underpricing, hot issue markets, and long-term underperformance anomalies. The long-term underperformance of IPO firms has gained the focus of recent academic attention. Recent studies document that venture capitalists, and the reputation of investment bankers are associated with the long-term performance of firms going public. The lack of venture capitalists has been shown to relate with the long-term underperformance of IPO firms. On the other hand, IPO firms underwritten by less reputable underwriters have been found to experience more negative long-term market adjusted returns. Unlike previous studies, this study examines the interactive …
