Interfirm Alliance Linkages and Knowledge Transfer

An Exploratory Analysis of Mutual Cooperative Learning in the Chinese Automotive Industry

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a unique example in the Chinese automobile industry which looks at the two-way mutual learning processes for true knowledge creation and sharing in a cross-border collaborative organisation, demonstrating the performance of partner organisations in the process of alliance knowledge transfer. Based on literature reflections, tangible facts and interpretations, this book refines a deeper understanding of the organisational activities involving cooperation and the dynamic knowledge transfer routines, which is a significant extension of past static cross-sectional conceptualisations. This book also proposes an interfirm knowledge transfer and cooperative learning framework, which is emphasised that the issue of sharing knowledge in alliances and bringing alliances into profitability requires partner companies to engage in interpartner learning and to be able to benefit from the transfer of knowledge. A key implication for the firm, therefore, is the critical ability to deal effectively and efficiently with the transfer of knowledge resources and in so doing to gain a competitive advantage.
