“…More generally, an important source of competitive advantage is the heterogeneity of expectations and cognitive representations held by human agents in an economy. Such a reading is developed by Foss and Foss (2008) who, drawing on the resource-based view, argue that firm-level entrepreneurial opportunities emerge along paths shaped by the firm's experience. However, they also argue out that property rights and transaction cost considerations are important to understanding the discovery and exploitation of opportunities.…”

“…İşletme çalışanlarının sahip olduğu kaynak bilgisi; işletme kaynaklarının kapasitesi, özellikleri ve karakteristikleri ile ilgili daha zengin bir anlayış sağlamaktadır. Yeni girişimcilik fırsatlarının belirlenmesi noktasında anlayış farkı gerekli ortamın oluşmasına olanak tanımaktadır (Foss & Foss, 2008). Diğer bir ifade ile kaynak bilgisi; işletmenin sahip olduğu kaynaklar ile halihazırda ne yapıldığı ve söz konusu kaynaklar ile ne yapmanın mümkün olduğunun analiz edilmesine olanak tanımakta ve girişimci keşif için fırsat sunmaktadır (Ardichvili, vd., 2003: 111).…”

“…Elde edilen bulgu, Anderson (2010)'ın çalışmasıyla tutarlı olarak, kaynak bilgisi ile girişimsel oryantasyon arasında doğru yönlü bir ilişkinin istatistiksel olarak var olduğunu göstermektedir. Aynı zamanda Foss & Foss (2008), Ardichvili, vd., (2003) gibi araştırmacılara göre de; işletmelerin çalışanlarının kaynak bilgisini artırmaya yönelik tutum ve kararları işletmenin girişimsel oryantasyon derecesine olumlu katkı yapmaktadır.…”

“…The problem that we address is how the ability to exploit business opportunities is influenced by entrepreneurial search and the economic organization of entrepreneurship (Arrow, 1962;Lippman & Rumelt, 2003;Aghion et al, 2005;. In many cases, the discovery for a new business opportunity needs to be motivated by expected gains, since the search and evaluation of business opportunities is a costly, resource-consuming process (Denrell, Fang & Winter, 2003;Nickerson & Zenger, 2004;Foss & Klein, 2005;Teece, 2007;Foss & Foss, 2008). 1 We show the critical role of expectations for understanding of the economic organization of entrepreneurship, and argue that transaction cost economics, with its insistence on bounded rationality, but far-sighted contracting offers useful insights and presents rich opportunities for further theoretical and empirical research (cf.…”

“…Apart from luck, probing this opportunity set requires some form of preselection and guided search (Cattani, Dorsch & Winter, 2007). Guidance may be provided by expectations about the abilities to appropriate a business opportunity (Arrow, 1962;Denrell, Fang & Winter, 2003;Foss & Foss, 2008). Lippman and Rumelt (2003a: 924) argue that "entrepreneurial energy and innovation are starkly biased towards the creation of those surpluses which can be appropriated by the innovator."…”
