This research adopted an exploratory, case-based theorising approach, and conducted a longitudinal empirical case study of four firms, each of which took a different internationalization path. The analysis focuses on how the four firms developed the firm-level organizational routines for exploring and exploiting external knowledge and capabilities, by investigating and comparing the level of routines development at the time of initial internationalization and these two years after this. As a result, this research finds that the level of the development of the firm-level organizational routines for internationalization is low, regardless of the timing and pace of internationalization, at the time of internationalization. Further, by analyzing the complete list of knowledge sources and knowledge types, this research argues the advantages of grafting for developing a wider variety of firm-level organizational routines to accelerate the pace of internationalization. Moreover, the distinction between ordinal and change routines has enabled this study to investigate the exploitation aspect of capabilities, and discusses the value of analyzing the higher-level routines that foster the exploitation, which distinguish rapidly internationalizing firms from slowly internationalizing firms.","PeriodicalId":14435,"journal":{"name":"International Strategy & Policy eJournal","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75274429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fuller","doi":"10.1111/beer.12012","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/beer.12012","url":null,"abstract":"Moral entrepreneurship is the fine art of recycling evil into good by taking advantage of situations given or constructed as crises. It should be seen as the ultimate generalisation of the entrepreneurial spirit, whose peculiar excesses have always sat uneasily with homo oeconomicus as the constrained utility maximiser, an image that itself has come to be universalised. A task of this essay is to reconcile the two images in terms of what by the end I call ‘superutilitarianism’, which draws on the lore of both superheroes and utilitarianism. After briefly surveying the careers of three exemplars of the moral entrepreneur (Robert McNamara, George Soros and Jeffrey Sachs), I explore the motives of moral entrepreneurs in terms of their standing debt to society for having already caused unnecessary harm but which also now equips him with the skill set needed to do significant good. Such a mindset involves imagining oneself a vehicle of divine will, which would be a scary proposition had it not been long presumed by Christians touched by Calvin. In conclusion, I argue that moral entrepreneurship looks most palatable – and perhaps even attractive – if the world is ‘reversible’, in the sense that every crisis, however clumsily handled by the moral entrepreneur, causes people to distinguish more clearly the necessary from contingent features of their existence. This leads them to reconceptualise past damages as new opportunities to assert what really matters; hence, a ‘superutilitarian’ ethic that treats all suffering as less cost than investment in a greater sense of the good.","PeriodicalId":14435,"journal":{"name":"International Strategy & Policy eJournal","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86059350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a sample of 2,679 European Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) we analyze how firms allocate their resources between internal and external growth strategies after going public and how the growth strategy affects performance. Our findings shed light on the motives for going public and the determinants of internal and external growth post-IPO. Our findings indicate that the financing effect of the IPO helps to increase both external and internal growth. In particular, going public benefits external growth strategies in the long-term as acquisition activities usually require subsequent equity and debt issuance. However, the direct effects of going public are weaker in Europe than reported in studies for the U.S. We document that European IPO firms that spend large amounts on acquisitions or Capex exhibit the best performance, and R&D-intensive firms the worst. During the growth years these high growth firms outperform the broad stock market, but performance reverses in the following years. Overall, our evidence is consistent with the idea that going public facilitates external growth as a complement or substitute to internal growth.","PeriodicalId":14435,"journal":{"name":"International Strategy & Policy eJournal","volume":"59 3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78555649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The shipping industry is one of the hardest hit fields. Many shipping companies have closed down because the relatively excessive shipping capacity and the dropped-down freight in the shipping market had caused the broken of the cash flow strand, and many others are still struggling for survival. It was even rumoring that the ‘survived’ shipping companies in the crisis would be the leading companies in the shipping industry. P Shipping Company has unavoidably encountered some difficulties during the financial crisis. But being benefited from the persistent company policies in risk control and timely adjustment of the strategy direction and operational tactics, the Company has achieved profitable 2008 and 2009 in total, stemming against the main stream of lose. Further more, it has successfully expanded the size of the fleet. In this paper, the remarkable mode against the financial crisis by the P Shipping Company is taken here for an example. The operational character of the shipping companies is considered. The relevant data and cases are analyzed. According to the current internal and external economic environment, the risk control practice in the high-risk shipping industry and the strategic direction to improve the competitive superiority of a shipping company are brought forward. After qualitatively analyzing on the important factors affecting the strategy management of a shipping company, the possible strategy projects are to be provided to the shipping companies.","PeriodicalId":14435,"journal":{"name":"International Strategy & Policy eJournal","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73005766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
