Success Factors of Corporate Spin-Offs

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Corporate Spin-Off processes are very interesting phenomena for management theory and practice. In theory, Corporate Spin-Offs are both a driver and a result of organisational change, offering the possibility to investigate an area where companies are genuinely sharing experience and best practice. In practice, Corporate Spin-Off processes are frequent and highly successful, but not as well-regarded as Merger and Acquisition strategies and less understood by the decision-makers.

Success Factors of Corporate Spin-Offs was designed to meet these demands by analysing the success factors of Corporate Spin-Offs, their relative contribution to the process and the role of the different actors involved. Based on an extensive literature review and a new Spin-Off typology, a broad range of success factors and success dimensions is proposed. Using a combination of multivariate models, the responses from 211 European companies to a questionnaire are analysed and typologies derived.

Autorenporträt

Developed on the basis of a comprehensive literature review and research questions, this work analyzes the success factors of corporate spin-offs, their relative contribution to the process and the role of the different actors involved. The authors propose a broad range of success factors and success dimensions. Using a combination of multivariate models, the responses to a questionnaire from 211 European companies are analyzed and typologies derived. The result is a new and comprehensive perspective on the relative contribution of each success factor, their interaction, and the behavior of both the parent and the spin-off companies in the process.
