Abstract

Estratégias para obter vantagens competitivas enfatizam o desenvolvimento e a transformação dos recursos existentes em uma base de recursos única e de valor. Mas e se você ainda não tiver o legado das forças dos recursos? Empreendedores em organizações novas precisam, primeiramente, reunir recursos, para, então, combiná-los e construir uma plataforma de recursos que gerará capacidades diferenciais. Neste artigo, os estudos de casos ilustram os desafios enfrentados pelos empreendedores na identificação, atração, combinação e transformação dos recursos individuais em recursos organizacionais. São fornecidos dois instrumentos analíticos para avaliar as necessidades iniciais de recursos e desenvolver uma estratégia de recursos que intensifique as possibilidades de criação de valor. Essa abordagem fornece orientação para empreendedores que busquem construir uma base de recursos.

Translated abstract

Strategies for attaining competitive advantages emphasize developing and configuring existing resource strengths into a valuable and unique resource base. But what if you do not yet have a legacy of resource strengths? Entrepreneurs in emerging organizations must first assemble resources, then combine them to build a resource platform that will yield distinctive capabilities. The case studies included in this article illustrate the challenges entrepreneurs confront in identifying, attracting, combining, and transforming personal resources into organizational resources. We offer two analytical tools for assessing initial resource needs and developing a resource strategy that can enhance possibilities for wealth creation. Our pathway approach provides guidance for entrepreneurs constructing a resource base.

An Evolutionary Theory of Economic Change

Richard R. Nelson (1982)

This book contains the most sustained and serious attack on mainstream, neoclassical economics in more than forty years. Nelson and Winter focus their critique on the basic question of how firms and industries change overtime. They marshal significant objections to the fundamental neoclassical assumptions of profit maximization and market equilibrium, which they find ineffective in the analysis of technological innovation and the dynamics of competition among firms. To replace these assumptions, they borrow from biology the concept of natural selection to construct a precise and detailed evolutionary theory of business behavior. They grant that films are motivated by profit and engage in search for ways of improving profits, but they do not consider them to be profit maximizing. Likewise, they emphasize the tendency for the more profitable firms to drive the less profitable ones out of business, but they do not focus their analysis on hypothetical states of industry equilibrium. The results of their new paradigm and analytical framework are impressive. Not only have they been able to develop more coherent and powerful models of competitive firm dynamics under conditions of growth and technological change, but their approach is compatible with findings in psychology and other social sciences. Finally, their work has important implications for welfare economics and for government policy toward industry.
