Untangling Disarray : Patterns in research on standards and standardisation
- 2015
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we present a two-dimensional framework for analysis of research on standards and standardization and its implications for strategic management. Existing research is organized and analyzed, demonstrating that despite the multifaceted nature of the field, patterns and logics are exposed by applying the suggested theoretical framework - its two analytical dimensions being the level of analysis and the processual stage in standardization. We show that despite the apparent fragmentation, evidence that standards and standardization encompass a coherent field for practitioners and scholars is revealed once contextual aspects are embraced and accounted for. Furthermore, we present gaps and inconsistencies, as well as informative insights, with regard to research on standards and standardization within the field of strategic management.

Collective Action Among Shareholder Activists
- 2007
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study addresses the problem of explaining the emergence and viability of coalitions among shareholder activists. The formation of coalitions for purposes of shareholder activism is generally unexpected from a theoretical perspective. Potential shareholder activists typically rely on the exit mechanism rather than becoming actively involved in the governance of corporations, and they tend to be in a prisoner’s dilemma type of situation, which has a non-co-operative outcome. Moreover, unless co-operation can be expected from others, no individual shareholder will make costly contributions to a coalition. Still, minority shareholder coalitions exist. The purpose of this study is to develop a model that accounts for the emergence and viability of minority shareholder coalitions. Two ideal-typical minority shareholder coalitions are developed: the offensive minority shareholder coalition, and the defensive minority shareholder coalition. These are based primarily on contractual theory (transaction cost economics, agency theory and property rights theory) and take form under the assumption that economic ends alone motivate actors. The offensive minority shareholder coalition emerges to seize an opportunity to increase share price by means of voice; it is led by a coalitional entrepreneur who carries all costs, thereby inducing co-operation from passive shareholders. The defensive minority shareholder coalition emerges to safeguard the members’ investments from risks of expropriation, which arise from increasing costs of using the exit mechanism; it is characterised by widespread active participation, since free riding further increases the risk of being expropriated. The model integrates the ideal types with results from three case studies of minority shareholder coalitions. These case studies show that under certain conditions, coalition members act as if they consider the effects of their actions on their reputation within networks of shareholders; this has implications for a coalition’s emergence and viability. The case studies further show that controlling shareholders, under certain circumstances, will tend to act as if they consider the effects of their actions on their public image as perceived by relevant (present or future) stakeholders; this places a shareholder coalition in a different bargaining position.

3rd Generation Partnership Project: Coopetition in a Developmental Standardisation Setting

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study examines the interdependence between R&D resources, coopetitive performance and extent of cooperation in development- related standardization settings that involve network effects. Coopetitive performance is measured as the firm’s influence on the change process of standards. Cooperation is measured as the number of firm technology partners in influencing industry technology standards. From a dataset of 152,959 decisions from the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) change request database during the period 2004-2013, firm influence on the standardization change process was studied by identifying firm involvement in change request decisions. The study supports the hypothesis that R&D resources are associated with coopetitive performance in innovation-related coopetitive settings with network effects. And, for firms that have a stronger dependence on the output of cooperative industry technology development, R&D resources are associated with fewer partners when trying to influence industry technology standards.

R&D Resources and Development-Related Standardization with Strong Network Effects - The Case of 3GPP and Telecom Firms
- 2015
-
Ingår i: EURAS proceedings.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper studies the interdependence between R&D resources and standardization performance in development-related standardization settings under strong network effects. Standardization performance is viewed as the firm’s involvement in the change process of standards as a result of the business processes of standardization. We utilize a sample from the 3GPP change request database to study firm involvement in a standardization change request process. The study supports the hypothesis that R&D resources are associated with standardization performance in development-related standardization with strong network effects
