Description
Summary:This paper presents the results of an analysis of resources, dynamic capabilities and performance in a dynamic environment. The author used data from 244 Taiwanese information technology firms and found that, in an unstable environment, resources, whether from the firm itself or from associated support firms, did not directly influence performance. Instead, resources influenced performance through exercising dynamic capabilities. Furthermore, this effort showed that information technology firm performance can be directly assessed by examining the innovation speed, market response speed, production efficiency, and production flexibility of a firm.
