The Impact

The purpose of the current study is to investigate the impact of the five ESE dimensions on firm performance. More specifically, we examine whether any of the five ESE dimensions are important to firm performance when the external environment is either competitively intense or technologically turbulent. This study investigated these relationships using a sample of franchisees, an important audience understudied in entrepreneurial literature. We find that the three-way interaction of competitive intensity, technological turbulence and each of ESE innovation, ESE management, and ESE financial control predicts franchisee performance. This confirms the wisdom of studying ESE as consisting of specific dimensions (as opposed to holistically) because not all ESE dimensions interact with franchisee environment in predicting performance.

Collaborative Efforts

How do home country institutions influence cross-border postacquisition performance? We develop an institutional framework showing that informal and formal institutions not only have important individual effects but also work together in complex and interesting ways. While collectivism and humane orientation (two major informal institutions) can facilitate postacquisition integration and firm performance, shareholder orientation and property rights protection (two formal institutions) constrain postacquisition integration and firm performance. As acquirers are simultaneously embedded in their home countries’ informal and formal institutions, we further hypothesize that the positive effects of collectivism and humane orientation can be weakened by incompatible formal institutions that hamper postacquisition collaborative efforts. We find strong support for our hypotheses in a multilevel analysis of a sample of 12,021 cross-border acquisitions involving 43 home and target countries between 1995 and 2003.
