Organizational Identity and Firm Growth (eBook)
XI, 223 Seiten
Palgrave Macmillan UK (Verlag)
978-1-137-57724-5 (ISBN)
This edited volume focuses on the interplay between organizational identities and firm growth, an area which remains largely unexplored. Firm growth in its various forms is omnipresent in the contemporary business environment, but does not always lead to positive results. At the same time, some organizations are growing faster than their peers, leading to questions of organizational growth antecedents. In addition to the dominant economic reasons in strategic literature, the volume seeks to integrate psychological aspects to the discourse, thereby considering the micro, meso and macro level. By providing both insights into international academic thinking and into practical examples of small and medium-sized companies in Berlin, the authors identify new findings concerning successful growth strategies.
Christoph Dörrenbächer is Professor of Organizational Design and Behavior in International Business and Director of the Berlin Institute for International Business Studies (BIIBS) at the Berlin School of Economics and Law, Germany.
Matthias Tomenendal is Professor of Management and Consulting, and Director of the IMB Institute of Management Berlin at the Berlin School of Economics and Law, Germany.
Sarah Stanske is a Doctoral Candidate at the European University Viadrina, Germany, and the German Graduate School of Management and Law.
