Abstract: | The post-formation processes that companies use to create successful international joint ventures (IJVs) are examined in this article. It has been suggested that IJV performance is dependent on the post-formation processes companies institute to overcome barriers to success created by differences in national culture, trust, ownership positions and control mechanisms. Based on a longitudinal study of eight Eastern/Western European IJVs, this study provides insights into these post-formation processes, how these processes relate to each other and how they relate to managers' evaluations of IJV success. |
