We found that synergies exist between a culture of competiti… Show more

“…Representation on the resource-based view (Wernerfelt, 1984), CC is conceptualized as an intangible hidden element (Godfrey & Hill, 1995) which is revealed in three different orientations -learning (LO), innovativeness (IO), and entrepreneurial (EO) -which increases the likelihood of firm performance. The learning orientation is a critical factor that assists the association of KD and CC (Hult et al, 2007). Particularly, learning orientation emphasizes on the beliefs and values that lead supply chains' actions necessary for the development of knowledge.…”
