DAY 2 Theoretical and Methodological Extensions of Competitive Dynamics Research
Theoretical Extensions Awareness-Motivation-Capability (AMC) Perspective Awareness TMT Demography & Performance Distress Action Performance Capability Motivation Global Multi-market Competition Inter- organizational Networks
Theoretical Extensions • What are most important theoretical or conceptual extensions? • Do we better understand “how” or “why” competitive action occurs? • Have we moved toward a predictive theory of competitive dynamics? • What more do we need?

Notes • Pitch • Volume • Dynamics • Duration • Voice Like individual competitive actions
Chords, Arpeggios • Harmonic anchor • Harmonic interval • or proximity • Harmonic sequence Like pairs or combinations of competitive actions
Melody • Timing, rhythm • Simplicity • Movement • Predictability • Familiarity • Phrasing • Motif Like a meaningful, coherent series of competitive actions

Methodological Extensions • What are the most important advances in data, levels of aggregation, measures and analytical methods? • Do we now better understand “how” or “why” competitive action occurs? • …and how action relates to performance? • Have we moved toward a predictive theory of competitive dynamics? • What more do we need?
Advocacy Presentations • Three teams – three sets of research articles • Discuss and present (~10 minutes) • General idea/phenomenon, research questions, motivation for these studies • Theoretical reasoning • Key constructs • General hypothesized relationships • General research approach • Data & measures • Analysis approach • Key findings • Overall contribution • What’s missing? …and… What’s next?
