Sources of sustained competitive advantage from the perspective of strategic entrepreneurship: An empirical study on manufacturing enterprises in China
| Resumo: | The resource-based view (RBV) holds that the important sources for an enterprise to obtain sustained competitive advantage (SCA) is its unique resources and capabilities. In essence, RBV is actually a static view. It does not explain how an enterprise can update its unique resources in a dynamic and changing environment, nor does it discuss how an enterprise can create valuable resources for the future. In the thesis, we deeply discuss the impact of resources on core competencies, and analyze the relevant mechanisms that may enhance these impacts. This study mainly analyzes the moderating effect of resource bundling and opportunity newness from the perspective of strategic entrepreneurship (SE). This thesis conducted a comprehensive literature study, and designed a conceptual model and put forward six hypotheses. In this study, we distributed and retrieved pilot questionnaires to 100 respondents to adjust the questionnaire questions and sample size. On this basis, we sent a formal questionnaire to 420 respondents and we collected 207 valid questionnaires. Then, we used regression analysis to study the path of knowledge-based resources, opportunity newness, resources bundling and core competencies. Results show that knowledge-based resources positively affect core competencies and opportunity newness. The degree of opportunity newness positively affects stabilizing and enriching bundling process. Meanwhile, it is found that resource bundling can positively moderate the relationship between core competence and knowledge-based resources. In addition, results show that enriching bundling process has a stronger modulatory effect than stabilizing bundling process and pioneering bundling process. |
