Abstract:
The 'Resource-Based View of the Firm' has emerged as one of the dominant perspectives used in strategic management. It addresses the fundamental research question of strategic management: Why it is that some firms persistently outperform others? Resource-Based Theory provides a considered overview of this theory from one of its key thinkers.
