In search of profitable growth in volatile and unpredictable environments: the role of supply chain structural adaptability
Purpose
This research examines the long-held belief in the adaption-related literature that a firm’s ability to adapt organizational structure to changing environments is related to superior performance. We create and test a construct that reflects an organization’s ability to change structure, which we call Supply Chain Structural Adaptability (SCSA), rather than relying on proxies (e.g. structural form or organizational modularity) used in prior studies.
Design/methodology/approach
Quantitative data was collected from 218 firms to test our conceptual model.
Findings
We find that SCSA has a mixed effect on profitable growth under various environmental conditions.
Originality/value
We find evidence that refutes two widely held assumptions in organization research, namely, that structural form serves as a reasonable proxy for structural adaptability and that the benefits of adaptive capabilities always increase as environmental dynamism increases.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Logistics Management (IJLM) is a scholarly publication that focuses on empirical research, with a particular emphasis on qualitative studies. The journal is committed to publishing articles that contribute original ideas to the field of logistics and supply chain management, which are presented in a clear and scientifically rigorous manner. All submissions undergo a rigorous, anonymous peer review process to ensure the quality and relevance of the research.
IJLM serves as a platform for the development and examination of management theories and practices in logistics and supply chain management. The journal aims to bridge the gap between academic research and practical application, providing a forum for researchers, practitioners, and educators to share insights and knowledge.
