The elephant in the room of Dynamic Capabilities: Bringing two diverging conversations together (2012, background): “Numerous complaints about the degree of confusion in the dynamic capabilities research domain and the slow rate of progress attest to the existence of this problem (e.g., Arend and Bromiley, 2009; Wang and Ahmed, 2007; Winter, 2003).”
Understanding the Elusive Black Box of Dynamic Capabilities (2011, background): “Dynamic capabilities have also been criticized for a lack of empirical grounding and measurement (Williamson, 1999), and attempts to measure dynamic capabilities have merely used distant proxies (e.g., Henderson & Cockburn, 1994; Nerkar & Roberts, 2004; Arend & Bromiley, 2009).”
The Influence of Industry Characteristics and Dynamic Capabilities on Firms’ Profitability (2017, background): “Considering the empirical validation of the concept of dynamic capabilities, Ambrosini and Bowman (2009), and Arend and Bromiley (2009) highlight limited empirical support.”
The Essence of Dynamic Capabilities and their Measurement (2018, neutral): “In order to study change, one needs longitudinal data (this point was also high-lighted by Arend and Bromiley (2009)).”
Dynamic capabilities, environmental dynamism, and competitive advantage: Evidence from China (2014, background): “…some others argue that dynamic capabilities do not manifest the characteristics of heterogeneity, thus cannot be a source of competitive advantage (Arend & Bromiley, 2009; Eisenhardt & Martin, 2000), and the role of dynamic capabilities is limited (Zott, 2003) and indirect (Wang & Ahmed, 2007).”
The Architecture of Dynamic Capability Research Identifying the Building Blocks of a Configurational Approach (2016, neutral): “In what follows we discuss the key building blocks identified by our analysis which future research will need to incorporate when developing configurations of DCs. 28 Insert Figure 12 About Here In applying the analogy of a house, we are accounting for the nature of the broader environment, the stru”
Entrepreneurship and dynamic capabilities: how firm age and size affect the ‘capability enhancement–SME performance’ relationship (2012, background): “The DC concept is not consistently defined in theory or practice (Williamson 1999; Winter 2003), so it is not surprising that the study of the relationship between DCs and performance involves different methods and controls (Arend and Bromiley 2009).”
Quo Vadis, Dynamic Capabilities? A Content-Analytic Review of the Current State of Knowledge and Recommendations for Future Research (2018, background): “Scholars have advocated continuing this approach and further enriching the dynamic capabilities perspective with other relevant theories (Arend & Bromiley, 2009; Helfat & Peteraf, 2009)—a call to which scholars have vigorously responded.”
Processes, antecedents and outcomes of dynamic capabilities (2014, background): “The literature on DC could be more rigorous and more explicit (see Arend & Bromiley, 2009; Schreyögg & KlieschEberl, 2007).”
What Do Resource- and Capability-Based Theories Propose? (2011, background): “These subtle distinctions provide one explanation for critiques of empirical work in these literatures (e.g., Arend, 2006; Arend & Bromiley, 2009; Hoopes et al., 2003).”
