Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate empirically managers’ awareness regarding the concept of competitive advantage, the most taken-for-granted concept in the field of strategic management. Design/methodology/approach – Managers’ awareness regarding the concept of competitive advantage was explored by applying a cross-sectional, self-administered, e-mail survey. Findings – The results of quantitative and qualitative data analyses provide empirical evidence that senior managers, who are heavily involved in the strategic management process of their firms, seem to confuse the concept of competitive advantage with the concept of sources of competitive advantage, especially those pertaining to resource-based theory. Research limitations/implications – The findings establish the hypothesis that senior managers are not aware of the concept of competitive advantage. At the same time, future researchers are encouraged to continue testing the above hypothesis. Practical implications – The findings as well as the provision of a conceptually clear stipulating definition of competitive advantage from literature could increase practicing managers’ awareness relating to the conceptual nature as well as the latent expressions of competitive advantage. Originality/value – Since little research, to date, has been carried out in order to investigate empirically the awareness of managers regarding competitive advantage, this study fills an important gap in the empirical literature of strategic management.

The strategic management literature has put a lot of emphasis on the role of intelligence in the strategic management process. However, the available literature has not been thorough in outlining the role and the potential outcome of the deployment of business intelligence. Majority of the researchers have looked at the direct relationship between business intelligence with specific reference to competitive intelligence with performance. The purpose of this paper is to review the extant literature on competitive intelligence so as to highlight its role in the different phases of strategic management process as well as the emerging phenomenon of the adoption of competitive intelligence in a firm. The authors have integrated the extant literature on competitive intelligence with that on strategic management process. The paper reviews extant conceptual, theoretical and empirical literature and raises diverse issues that present a case for a new theoretical model suitable to extend the current understanding of the phenomenon brought about by the deployment of competitive intelligence. The paper raises implications for theory and practice and suggests a theoretical model suitable to guide future research.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore how hotels evolve their dynamic capabilities to adjust their technology-based strategy to improve performance and to gain competitive productivity (CP) during the COVID-19 pandemic and in the aftermath. Design/methodology/approach In-depth interviews with hoteliers were conducted to unveil their dynamic capabilities amid the pandemic as regard adjustments and performance of self-service technology (SST)-based strategies. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Findings Data analysis revealed four types of dynamic capabilities (i.e. sensing, learning, integrating and coordinating capabilities). Equipped with these capabilities, hotels made minor adjustments to their SST strategies. In general, during an economic downturn, hotels refrained from introducing new SSTs. SSTs introduced before the pandemic were used more frequently and received enhanced customer feedback. The findings further revealed that the factors influencing hotels’ application of SSTs before and after the outbreak of COVID-19 remained similar. Originality/value This is the first research integrating CP, dynamic capabilities and strategic management process to explain how hotels adjust technological strategies to recover in a suddenly changed environment. Such a framework enables scholars and practitioners from content-oriented and process-oriented perspectives to make quick but sound strategic management decisions in adapting to turbulent environments. This timely study enriches the expertise of using technology as a recovery strategy and contributes to future research on the practical application of SSTs and crisis management.
