Tiivistelmä: | Although progress has been made in understanding market-driven businesses from a theoretical perspective, relatively few empirical studies have addressed the capabilities needed to become market-driven and the performance advantages accruing to firms possessing these capabilities. One of the barriers faced has been in defining what is meant by the term "market-driven". This paper develops a multi-dimensional measure useful for assessing the degree to which a firm is market-driven. It presents evidence that market-driven business units developed higher levels of 6 vital marketing capabilities than their less market-driven rivals and significantly outperformed these rival business units on four measures of organizational performance. |
