COMPETITIVENESS AND COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

 

The competitiveness and competitive advantage in emerging economies covers research that interlinks and investigates national macro-environments to micro-behaviour of firms.  At the macro-level the research investigates factors that lead to national and international competitiveness, and at the firm level it seeks to understand how competitive advantage can be built and sustained. Thus at the national level the research of the unit investigates national factors that create and sustain a climate of economic vibrancy and competitiveness, whilst at the firm level the focus is to identify the bundles of firm level practices and routines that lead to creation of competitive advantage. 

 

The research of the Strategy Research Group feeds into this Competitiveness and Competitive Advantage strength through a set of research sub-themes. The Strategy Group’s research sub-themes fall into the following key categories:

  • Research examining human resource factors in building and sustaining competitive advantage

  • Research examining operational and process strategies for business performance

  • Research examining national systems of economic vibrancy and progress

  • Research examining international business and cross-cultural management
