Abstract: | It is not clear, whether there are significant patterns of differences in how marketing-related factors drive performance in the most successful firms regardless of country. Building on a previous study of major Japanese firms (Deshpandè et al., 1993), an exploratory study compared samples of business-to-business relationships of Japanese, English, French, German and US companies. The authors found the expected significant differences in organizational cultures, but found no country-spesific slopes or intercepts in regressions relating factors such as innovativeness, organizational climate and culture, and market orientation to business performance. |
