Our results suggest both formal strategic planning processes and adaptive capabilities are positively associated with innovativeness. In addition, we find innovativeness fully mediates the relationships from formal strategic planning and adaptive capabilities to firm financial performance. This implies that organizations that concurrently act and react will be in a more advantageous competitive position than those unable to master this paradoxical conundrum. %B Journal of Business Research %V 67 %P 2000-2007 %8 2015 %G eng %N 9 %2 a %4 34332592129 %$ 34332592129 %0 Journal Article %J Family Business Review %D 2014 %T Social Issues in the Family Enterprise %A Van Gils,Anita %A Dibrell,Clay %A Neubaum,Donald %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Family Business Review %V 27 %P 193-205 %8 2014 %G eng %N 3 %2 a %4 92177551360 %$ 92177551360 %0 Journal Article %J Journal of Family Business Strategy %D 2012 %T Balancing Natural Environmental Concerns of the Internal and External Stakeholders in Family and Non-family Businesses %A Neubaum,Donald %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %X While researches have long suggested that firms must be attentive to their key stakeholders, the question of how attention to different stakeholders may have different benefits for different firms has not been well addressed. This is especially true in the case of family businesses, which confront a unique set of stakeholder challenges, and socioemotional goals not confronted by non-family firms. In this study, we investigate the effect of these competing demands across these different types of firms. We argue that while being attentive to both internal and external stakeholders is important to firm performance in family and non-family firms, family firms can benefit more when they match their concern for natural environmental stakeholders with a demonstration of concern for their employees. By effectively leveraging the power of these critical internal stakeholders, family firms can gain competitive advantages over non-family firms as it is through these internal stakeholders which the demands of external stakeholder are often met. %B Journal of Family Business Strategy %V 3 %P 28-37 %8 2012 %G eng %N 1 %2 a %4 34332635137 %$ 34332635137 %0 Journal Article %J Journal of Strategic Innovation and Sustainability %D 2011 %T A study of Schumpterian (radical) vs. Kirznerian (incremental) innovations in knowledge intensive industries %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %A Cromer,Cory %K Entrepreneurship %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Journal of Strategic Innovation and Sustainability %V 7 %P 28-41 %8 2011 %G eng %N 1 %2 a %4 216944805888 %$ 216944805888 %0 Generic %D 2011 %T Untitled %A Dibrell,Clay %A Neubaum,Donald %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B International Family Enterprise Research Academy (IFERA) %C Sicily, Italy %8 2011 %G eng %2 c %4 50126239744 %$ 50126239744 %0 Generic %D 2010 %T Overcoming the Liability of Theoretical Newness: The Case for Stewardship Theory %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %A Neubaum,Donald %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Babson Kauffman Entrepreneurship Research Conference %C Lausanne, Switzerland %8 2010 %G eng %2 c %4 50126286848 %$ 50126286848 %0 Generic %D 2009 %T Addressing Natural Environmental Concerns from Within: Investigating the Role of Internal Stakeholders in Family and Non-Family Businesses %A Neubaum,Donald %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Family Enterprise Research Conference %C Winnipeg, Canada %8 2009 %G eng %2 c %4 13944254465 %$ 13944254465 %0 Journal Article %J Entrepreneurship, Theory and Practice %D 2008 %T Culture of Family Commitment and Strategic Flexibility: The Moderating Effect of Stewardship %A Zahra,Shaker %A Hayton,James %A Neubaum,Donald %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Entrepreneurship, Theory and Practice %V 32 %P 1035-1054 %8 2008 %G eng %2 a %4 50126061569 %$ 50126061569 %0 Generic %D 2008 %T Disabled Enterpreneurs: A Model of Entrepreneurial Intention %A Baldridge,David %A Dibrell,Clay %A Neubaum,Donald %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Babson Conference %C Chapel Hill, NC %8 2008 %G eng %2 c %4 8495278081 %$ 8495278081 %0 Journal Article %J Small Business Economics %D 2008 %T Founding family influence and the moderating effects of product market competition on firm performance: Implications for corporate governance %A Randoy,Trond %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Small Business Economics %V 20 %P 335-344 %8 2008 %G eng %2 a %4 12158451713 %$ 12158451713 %0 Generic %D 2008 %T The Impact of Firm Natural Environment Policy on the Market Orientation to Innovation Relationship in SMEs %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %A Hansen,Eric N. %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Babson Kauffman Entrepreneurship Research Conference %C Chapel Hill, NC %8 2008 %G eng %2 c %4 8582465537 %$ 8582465537 %0 Journal Article %J Journal of Small Business Management %D 2008 %T Leveraging family-based brand identity to enhance firm competitiveness and performance. %A Craig,Justin %A Dibrell,Clay %A Davis,P.

disability can mean the difference between unemployment or severe underemployment and a truly
exceptional and prosperous career. Recent research highlights the importance of entrepreneurial
intentions (i.e., the interest of a person in starting, acquiring or buying a business) as a precursor
to entrepreneurial behavior (Zhao et al., 2005). Further, entrepreneurial self-efficacy (Zhao et al.,
2005), defined as the level of confidence individuals have to identify new opportunities, create
products, think creatively, or commercialize an idea, is positively associated with entrepreneurial
intention. In reviewing the literature on people with disabilities, however, we find reason to believe
that this model does not fully explain the entrepreneurial activities of persons with disabilities.
Thus, we integrate the literatures on entrepreneurship and people with disabilities to propose a
refined model. A few of the propositions offered by our model are included below. %B Frontiers of Entrepreneurship Research: %C Chapel Hill, NC. %V Vol. 28 %P Article 4 %8 2008 %G eng %N Iss. 5 %2 b %4 22485731329 %$ 22485731329 %0 Generic %D 2008 %T A Model Of The Impact Of Disability Attributes On Career Utility And Entrepreneurial Intentions. %A Dibrell,Clay %A Baldridge,David %A Neubaum,Donald %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Academy of Management Annual Meeting %8 2008 %G eng %2 c %4 8495194113 %$ 8495194113 %0 Generic %D 2008 %T Strategic Planning And Flexibility As Governance Control Mechanisms In Family And Non-Family Firms. %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %A Neubaum,Donald %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Academy of Management Annual Meeting %C Anaheim, CA %8 2008 %G eng %2 c %4 8495233025 %$ 8495233025 %0 Generic %D 2007 %T Being the boss and working for a boss: Upsides and downsides. %A Craig,Justin %A Schaper,M. %A Dibrell,Clay %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B The 2007 Australian-New Zealand Academy of Management Conference %C Sydney, Australia. %8 2007 %G eng %2 c %4 6815875073 %$ 6815875073 %0 Generic %D 2007 %T Between a strategic rock and a hard place: Planning and flexibility in family and non-family firms. %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B 2007 Australian-New Zealand Academy of Management Conference %C Sydney, Australia. %8 2007 %G eng %2 c %4 6815823873 %$ 6815823873 %0 Journal Article %J Journal of Business and Management %D 2007 %T Dynamic strategic planning: Achieving strategic flexibility through formalization. %A Dibrell,Clay %A Down,Jon %A Bull,Lyndall %K Entrepreneurship %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Journal of Business and Management %V 13 %P 21-35 %8 2007 %G eng %N 1 %2 a %4 8581380097 %$ 8581380097 %0 Generic %D 2007 %T Family Culture and Strategic Flexibility: The Moderating Effects of Stewardship %A Neubaum,Donald %A Craig,Justin %A Dibrell,Clay %A Hayton,James %A Zahra,Shaker %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Family Business Conference %C Starksville, MS %8 2007 %G eng %2 c %4 2591518721 %$ 2591518721 %0 Journal Article %J Journal of Small Business Management %D 2007 %T Fueling innovation through information technology in SMEs %A Dibrell,Clay %A Davis,P.

L. %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %X Recent trends toward greater globalization and the increasing number of transition economies are changing the nature of the relationships among multinational enterprises (MNEs), organizations in transition economies (OTEs), and the OTEs' governments from a traditional conflict-based perspective towards consisting of cooperation and collaboration. This paper draws on the theory of cooperation that incorporates the concepts of substitutability (substitution of goals), cathexis (commitment to a specific goal), and inducibility (open to influence) to describe the emerging interactive relationship between MNEs and OTEs. Due to changing global competitive trends, we propose that MNEs, OTEs, and transition economy governments act in their best interests through a continuum of cooperation and confrontation. We propose that the two theories of cooperation and confrontation are not paradoxical but are in effect complementary. %B Journal of World Business %V 40 %P 223-234 %8 2005 %G eng %N 3 %2 a %4 645529600 %$ 645529600 %0 Journal Article %J Management International Review %D 2005 %T The influence of internationalization on time-based competition %A Dibrell,Clay %A Davis,P.

One technique is the integrated supply chain. However, this process has not met with success for all companies, leading some managers to consider the appropriateness of an integrated supply chain. This dearth of success could be attributed to the lack of scholarship to guide managers in their efforts to formulate and then implement their integrated supply chain strategies. In an effort to fill this gap, our paper draws on resource dependency theory and the realities of ever-increasing information technology sophistication as enablers of successful supply chain integration, resulting in the creation of our model to guide managers throughout this process. Through a Web-based survey, 329 responses were collected and analyzed through a structural equation modeling technique using LISREL to confirm the relationships in the model. %B Information Resources Management Journal %V 17 %P 1-19 %8 2004 %G eng %N 3 %2 a %4 645519360 %$ 645519360 %0 Generic %D 2004 %T Entrepreneurial firm success: A triadic examination of strategy planning, choice and flexibility %A Down,Jon %A Dibrell,Clay %A Craig,Justin %K Entrepreneurship %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Babson Kauffman Entrepreneurship Research Conference %C Glasgow, Scotland %8 2004 %G eng %2 c %4 645779456 %$ 645779456 %0 Generic %D 2004 %T Founding family leadership, product market competition, and firm performance among publicly traded firms %A Dibrell,Clay %A Randøy,T. %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %B Financial Management Association European Conference %C Zurich, Switzerland %8 2004 %G eng %2 c %4 645535744 %$ 645535744 %0 Generic %D 2004 %T Gaining and Sustaining Competitive Advantage: The Effects of Strategic Flexibility and Information Technology Among Internationalizing Firms %A Dibrell,Clay %A Babakus,E. %A Davis,P.

The findings suggest that Western European companies place an equally higher priority on both long- and short-term measures of performance compared to companies from Japan and the United States. Additionally, Japanese companies were postulated by the literature to employ a long-term orientation toward company performance greater than U.S. companies. However, our results do not support this statement, as U.S. and Japanese companies were not statistically significantly different. %B Journal of World Business %V 37 %P 245-255 %8 2002 %G eng %N 4 %2 a %4 645513216 %$ 645513216 %0 Journal Article %J Management Decision %D 2002 %T Organization design: The continuing influence of information technology %A Dibrell,Clay %A Miller,T. %K Management %K Strategy & Entrepreneurship %X Drawing from an information processing perspective, this paper examines how information technology (IT) has been a catalyst in the development of new forms of organizational structures. The article draws a historical linkage between the relative stability of an organization's task environment starting after the Second World War to the present environmental instability that now characterizes many industries. Specifically, the authors suggest that advances in IT have enabled managers to adapt existing forms and create new models for organizational design that better fit requirements of an unstable environment. Time has seemingly borne out this hypothesis as the bureaucratic structure evolved to the matrix to the network and now to the emerging shadow structure. IT has gone from a support mechanism to a substitute for organizational structures in the form of the shadow structure.
