“…However, knowledge creation does not necessarily lead to stronger SCA. One immediate outcome of exploiting that advantage is that a business can respond to market changes effectively and develop products or services continually to satisfy customer needs, dominate market shares, and achieve a greater operational performance than its competitors [9,59]. This allows a business to acquire business value.…”

This study examines the relationship between the knowledge creation process and technological innovation capabilities, and analyzes their effect on a firm's sustainable competitive advantage using a knowledge-based view theoretical framework. We conduct structural equation modeling analyses using survey data from 315 Chinese industrial firms to test the direct and indirect effects of the knowledge creation process on sustainable competitive advantage. Technological innovation capabilities-operationalized to reflect the dimensions of process innovation capability and product innovation capability-are used as the mediating variable for explaining the relationship between the knowledge creation process and sustainable competitive advantage. The results indicate that the knowledge creation process does not have a significant direct effect on sustainable competitive advantage. Rather, the knowledge creation process can only influence the sustainable competitive advantage through the mediating effect of technological innovation capabilities completely. Consequently, the knowledge creation process favors the development of technological innovation capabilities for processes and products, because processes and products can lead to a sustainable competitive advantage.

“…It has been applied in diverse fields, such as entrepreneurship (Lim et al, 2010), competitiveness (Lazzarini, 2015), international businesses (Gao et al, 2010), research and development (Koo and Kim, 2009), politics (Lux et al, 2011), sustainable development (Kolk and Van Tulder, 2010) and transnational education (Wilkins and Huisman, 2012). Recently, the approach has won the hearts of many researchers, especially those of Asian origin.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify the structural similarities between stricto sensu post-graduation programs in management through the formation of clusters, with the strategy tripod as a backdrop (Peng, 2002; Peng et al., 2009). Design/methodology/approach The co-plot method was used as a tool. It was chosen because it simultaneously enables joint and individual observations of comments and variables. Findings The results showed the formation of clusters among the programs, identifying a series of similarities between their components. The age and number of lines of research of the programs were the determining variables to identify isomorphism among the clusters. Research limitations/implications The main limitation of the study lies in the updating of information at the source of the data collection. All the data were collected from the Sucupira Platform for CAPES Triennial Evaluation of 2013. However, when the authors accessed the portals of the programs, the authors found that some data were outdated. Nevertheless, the authors limited themselves to using official data. Therefore, even if the authors found divergences or inconsistencies regarding the published information, the authors decided to use the official data made available by CAPES on the Sucupira Platform for the period in question. Originality/value Understanding that the results through the approaches of the industry-based view, resource-based view and institution-based view were insufficient for a thorough analysis, it is demonstrated in isolation that none of these succeeds in explaining the organizational context that permeates Brazilian stricto sensu post-graduation institutions. In this organizational field, the three views are not at the same theoretical level. The institutional view overlaps with the strategic competitive views. Therefore, the study contributes to reorganizing the strategy tripod and the proposed articulation between the arrangement of theory, method and field research.

“…A busca por vantagens competitivas sustentáveis é um dos principais objetivos das empresas e tema central para os pesquisadores de áreas relacionadas com estratégia organizacional (PORTER, 1981;BARNEY, 1991;LAZZARINI, 2015;HATCH;DYER, 2004;SINGH, 1998;RUMELT et al, 1994). Dessa forma, entender as transformações nos ambientes internos e externos e como eles se inter-relacionam para gerar vantagens competitivas, é fundamental para o desenvolvimento de estratégias organizacionais que gerem mais resultados para as empresas (LAZZARINI, 2015;HATCH;DYER, 2004).…”
