Firms' environment and competence portfolio
The main objective in this chapter is to examine the firm’s competence strategies: learning activities and organisational practices, and their relationship with the firm’s environment and economic output. The main conclusion is, besides that these activities and practices in firms can be measured, that they are heterogeneous across organisations, but not according to measurements of the firm’s environment, as theory defining organisational boundaries argue. Most of the learning activities and work practices are used in such a way that they make a common pattern; a few make their own patterns. An analytical scheme developed for analysis of a firm’s competence strategy is used in creation of the models and in the interpretation of the results, made by factor analysis and regression analysis. ; URN:NBN: SE: SCB-2011-NRFT1101_pdf (pdf).
