“…Rather, they are factors that are also studied in the general management literature, with findings that are generally consistent across general management and IB studies. For instance, studies found that a firm's capability (Roy, 2012), competencies (Styles et al, 2008), performance (Slater & Robson, 2012), and intangible resources (Khalid & Ali, 2017) are positively associated with interorganizational trust.…”

“…Several streams of research identify what might be driving these country-of-origin effects: A first stream has examined how informal institutions affect the formation of trust. The bulk of this work has considered how cultural traits of the trustor's home country affect trust (e.g., Choi et al, 1999;Doney et al, 1998;Fregidou-Malama & Hyder, 2015Huff & Kelley, 2005;Ketkar et al, 2012;Slater & Robson, 2012). For example, in a conceptual study, Doney et al (1998) proposed a process model that articulates how different dimensions of national culture (individualism/collectivism, masculinity/femininity, power distance, and uncertainty distance) can affect the trust development process through five cognitive processes (i.e., calculative, prediction, intentionality, capability, and transferences processes).…”

Trust between organizations has been recognized as crucial in international business (IB) and has attracted extensive research attention. Researchers have conceptualized and measured interorganizational trust in multiple ways, investigated numerous determinants and outcomes of interorganizational trust, and explored interorganizational trust in several types of international relationships across a range of country combinations using varied research methodologies. Our review aims to consolidate and advance this literature by focusing on (i) how interorganizational trust has been conceptualized in IB; (ii) how interorganizational trust has been operationalized in IB; (iii) what factors promote or hinder interorganizational trust in IB; (iv) what the outcomes are of interorganizational trust in IB; and (v) how interorganizational trust has been studied in IB. For each question, we analyze the literature and then provide recommendations and directions for future research. We aim to provide a solid grounding for future research that will keep this area theoretically sound, empirically robust, and phenomenologically relevant.

“…For example, external relationships enable subsidiaries to obtain an isomorphism structure and allow subsidiaries to adopt a suitable operating mode. Slater and Robson (2012) indicated that the system of the external environment affects the enterprise's strategy, and the environmental relationships form bridges between the system and the enterprise strategy and the connection mechanism between the two concepts. In the face of the environmental system and market pressure, subsidiaries often use political strategies to build relationships to maintain legitimacy and viability in the market (Han, 2021; Kostova and Zaheer, 1999).…”

PurposeIn this study, the authors argue that the host environment of subsidiaries may affect subsidiary initiative via relationships with two stakeholders: public and private stakeholders. On the one hand, the public relationships and private relationships of subsidiaries may affect their tendency to demonstrate initiative. On the other hand, including technological innovation as a moderating effect supports the tendency towards subsidiary initiative.Design/methodology/approachThis study obtained the data through a survey of 216 subsidiaries in China; chief executive officer or senior managers were selected as the data collection sources. AMOS analysis was used to address sophisticated data analysis issues.FindingsFindings based on samples from China support these arguments. The findings contribute to the literature by highlighting that different types of subsidiary initiative coexist within subsidiaries and by accounting for the external environmental relationships and technological innovation.Originality/valueWhat determines subsidiary initiatives in the host market? We find that (1) public relationships directly influence subsidiary initiatives, and (2) this effect is moderated by technological innovation. The theoretical framework shows that this interaction arises from the separate impacts of innovation characteristics, especially a foreign subsidiary's interest in entrepreneurial action affecting both growth and maintenance initiatives. In summary, this article concludes that initiatives are not simply the activities of subsidiaries. The authors hope that the strong explanatory and predictive power of these external factors and technological innovation are further enhanced when these concepts are integrated with the charters of internationalizing MNEs.
