Download or read book Encyclopedia of New Venture Management written by Matthew R. Marvel and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New venture management requires all the skills obtained within the typical MBA program, and then some. While those entering traditional management positions within established companies might expect to find established customers, a degree of predictability, formalized procedures, and earnings that may be taken more-or-less for granted, new ventures often are launched into highly dynamic environments characterized by rapid technological change, inherent unpredictability, and an uncertain cash flow. Such ventures often require rapid growth to succeed. While new ventures offer those who initiate them a high degree of independence, excitement, and potential for great reward, they also bring high risk, stress, and greater potential for failure. Thus, it takes a special set of skills, techniques, and temperament to succeed. These skills, along with the potential risks and rewards and environmental settings and characteristics, are explored in the Encyclopedia of New Venture Management. Features & Benefits: 150 carefully selected signed entries (each with Cross References and Further Readings) are organized in A-to-Z fashion to give students easy access to the full range of topics in new venture management. A thematic Reader′s Guide in the front matter groups related entries by broad topical and thematic areas to make it easy for users to find related entries at a glance, with themes that include "Entrepreneurial Decision Making," "Corporate Entrepreneurship," "Entrepreneurial Marketing," "Leadership & Human Resources," "Financing & Development," and more. In the electronic version, the Reader′s Guide combines with a detailed Index and the Cross References to provide users with robust search-and-browse capacities. A Chronology in the back matter helps students put individual events into broader historical context. A Glossary provides students with concise definitions to key terms in the field. A Resource Guide to classic books, journals, and web sites (along with the Further Readings accompanying each entry) helps guide students to further resources for their research journeys. An appendix includes the report, "The State of Small Business."

Download or read book Entrepreneurial Strategy written by Dean A. Shepherd and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book focuses on explaining differences amongst organizations regarding various attributes, forms, and outcomes. By focusing on the “how” of new venture creation and management to produce well-established organizations, the authors aim to increase our understanding of the antecedents of most management research assumptions. New ventures are the source of most newly created jobs generated in an economy, new industries and markets, innovative products and services, and new solutions to economic, social, and environmental problems. However, most management research assumes a well-established organization as the starting point of their theorizing. Building on the notion of guided attention, it details how entrepreneurs can allocate their transient attention to identify potential opportunities from environmental change and how entrepreneurs allocate their sustained attention to form beliefs about radical and incremental opportunities requiring entrepreneurial action. The authors explain how entrepreneurs build such communities and engage community members over time to co-construct potential opportunities for new venture progress. Using the lean startup framework, they connect the dots between the theorizing on identifying and co-constructing potential opportunities and the startup of new ventures. This leads to a new overarching framework based on are (1) co-creating a startup, (2) organizing a startup, and (3) performing a startup to bring together the many disparate threads of research on new ventures. The authors then theorize on the importance of knowledge in organizational scaling. Based on cutting-edge research from the leading entrepreneurship journals, this book expands knowledge on the cognitive aspect of the new venture creation process.

Download or read book International Joint Venture Management written by Bettina Büchel and published by . This book was released on 1998-10-21 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joint Venture Learning to Cooperate and Cooperating to Learn Joint venture management is a demanding and continuous process of organizing, guiding and developing, not only within the joint venture itself but also within the partner companies. Relationships between each side will change over time and problems can arise at different stages of development. An essential part of joint venture management consists of monitoring these stages, anticipating possible difficulties and avoiding them by applying appropriate measures in the areas of strategy, structure, human resources and culture. Using a range of international cases from top multinational companies, the authors present an effective model for implementing a successful joint venture management strategy. This is an essential book for practitioners in strategic planning, business professionals interested in entering joint ventures, as well as academics and students of international business. "This book offers valuable insights into how to make joint ventures work, both for practitioners and researchers. It represents a true step forward when it comes to better understanding how joint ventures function. The book significantly links joint ventures to present thinking on organizational learning and demonstrates more effectively than has been discussed elsewhere how the two fit together." Professor Peter Lorange President of IMD (International Institute for Management Development) "In our joint ventures we always look for strong complementarity with our partners. This book enlarges the traditional view of cooperation by delivering new and valuable insights into processes of interorganizational learning and knowledge management. The authors share with their readers a thoughtful toolbox built on practical experience." Franz Nawratil Chairman and CEO Hewlett-Packard Europe "Joint ventures have become an important business tool for market entry, use of synergies and innovations. Too many joint ventures are dissolved before the actual potential of these organizations have been capitalized. This book highlights the key factors of success in joint venture management by focusing on strategy development, structuring, cultural awareness and human resource management." M & A Review
