| Tiivistelmä: | The authors synthesize organization learning theory and organizational ecology to predict systematic patterns in the founding and growth of organizations over time. The authors' central argument is that competition triggers organizational learning, which in turn intensifies competition that again triggers an adaptive response. The authors model this self-exciting dynamic-sometimes referred to as the 'Red Queen' in general evolutionary theory-to explain organizational founding and growth rates among the thousands of retail banks that have operated in Illinois at any time from 1900-1993. The authors find strong evidence that Red Queen evolution led some organizations to grow quickly and to place strong competitive pressure on rivals. |
