Conventional and Reverse Knowledge Flows in Multinational Corporations† (2008, positive): “This implies that the same level of knowledge relevance can have a higher or lower impact on knowledge transfers depending on the strategic importance of subsidiary’s geographical location (Jensen & Szulanski, 2004).”
Resource-Based Advantages in an International Context† (2008, background): “When resourcebased knowledge is transferred across firm boundaries, some loss may occur because of the “stickiness” of the knowledge or because partner organizations do not have the absorptive capacity needed to assure full value transfer (Jensen & Szulanski, 2004).”
Balance Within and Across Domains: The Performance Implications of Exploration and Exploitation in Alliances (2011, background): “1982) and the misapplication of these routines ( Jensen and Szulanski, 2004; Lavie and Miller, 2008) result”
Cultural distance and psychic distance: refinements in conceptualisation and measurement (2008, methodology): “The operationalisation of this construct, however, has proven to be very difficult which has lead authors such as Jensen and Szulanski (2004) to use Kogut and Singh cultural distance index to measure institutional distance.”
The Governance of the Multinational Enterprise: Insights from Internalization Theory (2011, background): “Furthermore, the need for adaptation increases as the institutional distance between the home and host countries increases ( Jensen and Szulanski, 2004).”
