I would like to know if there is any paper which has empirically measured the opportunity exploitation process strategies specifically which mentioned by Shane in his book. Shane himself mentioned Survival, Growth, Profit, sales, initial public offering as the performance indicators. These measurements have massively used in the literature. I would like to be more specific on the measurements I'm looking for as follows:
1. Organizing (not by opening new venture), can be a dynamic process, mode of organizing, choice of markets etc.
2. Strategies which can be scale, control of resources, legal barriers, reputation, and innovation etc.
3. Resources acquisitions which can be self-financing, contract structure etc
All these mentioned by Shane, and are the one I'm interested in using them as my dependent variables. I want to use these on the fact that entrepreneurial ventures are not always making a profit, but their capabilities matter to achieve their venture's growth, sales, and profit.etc.
Suggestions and corrections are also welcomed.
Dear Frida I think check with online book sellers like Amazon etc
I suggest to read this article
Parker, Gillian, Voice of America (Ed. Newsela staff). "Entrepreneurship Seen as Solution to S. Africa's Unemployment Crisis." 22 May 2014. Web: http://www.voanews.com/content/entrepreneurship-seen-as-a-solution-to-south-africas-unemployment-crisis/1920230.html
Hello Frida, Amazon.com sells Shane's book. Here is a breakdown of the offering. Rather expensive, but it is a keepsake.
