The relationship between market orientation and financial dependency: the case of portuguese non-profit organisations
| Resumo: | It has been largely emphasised in the literature that a market orientation can provide important competitive advantages to organisations. However, for-profit organisations have so far been the focus of much of the market orientation research and less emphasis has been put on other organisational contexts, such as the non-profit sector. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to apply the construct of market orientation to the non-profit sector and to analyse the constraints that can be posed to an effective assimilation of this construct, namely the dependency of non-profit organisations on financial resources. |
