Outline of Research at the Start |
Designing and configuring the alliance portfolio structure is a critical issue in alliance management. Focusing on the global airlines industry, I investigate how firms strategically adjust their alliance portfolios as a reaction to the market demand shock and competition structure changes.
|
Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research investigated competitive strategies under different types of market change: demand shock and competitive structure change. I found preliminary results suggesting differential impacts of firm behavioral characteristics (e.g., learning orientation) on resource reallocation and resource configuration decisions under COVID-19 pandemic. The second project results suggest that the market shock created disturbance on alliance formation patterns (linearity and choice of value chain). The implications of this research provide a more holistic view in building an optimal structure of the global value chain and cooperative relationships with competitors.
