Summary
Organizations can enhance performance by leveraging dynamic capabilities to shape strategic behavior. This systematic literature review explores the links between dynamic capabilities, strategic behavior, and organizational performance.
Area of Science:
- Business and Management
- Organizational Studies
Background:
- Maintaining competitiveness requires understanding factors influencing organizational performance.
- Dynamic capabilities and strategic behavior are critical elements in this context.
Purpose of the Study:
- To conduct a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on the relationship between dynamic capabilities, strategic behavior, and organizational performance.
- To identify theoretical, methodological, and empirical connections between these constructs.
Main Methods:
- A three-stage SLR protocol (planning, conduct, knowledge development) was employed.
- Analysis included 118 articles published between 2006 and 2021.
- Keyword analysis identified three main classes: 'Knowledge Management,' 'Measurement Instrument,' and 'Organizational Environment.'
Main Results:
- A strong theoretical, methodological, and empirical link exists between dynamic capabilities, strategic behavior, and organizational performance.
- A significant connection was found between dynamic capabilities and competitive intensity.
- Dynamic capabilities influence strategic behavior and, consequently, organizational performance.
Conclusions:
- Organizations can improve performance by developing and utilizing dynamic capabilities.
- These capabilities act as institutional factors that shape strategic behavior.
- The study provides directions for future research in this domain.

Effective communication is the foundation of a good organization. Communication is the lifeblood of an organization that connects the group with messages. In an organization, communication occurs in upward, downward, and horizontal lines. Downward communication travels from the administrative and senior levels to the staff through official channels such as manuals, rules and regulations, and organizational charts. Staff members initiate upward communication, which is addressed to executives and...

01:19The Behavioral Perspective on Personality
378
Behaviorists view personality as primarily shaped by environmental reinforcements and consequences. According to this perspective, behavior is influenced by external stimuli, and individuals adjust their actions based on rewards and punishments. Over time, learning histories — accumulated patterns of reinforcement — play a significant role in shaping personality. Behaviors that lead to positive outcomes are reinforced, while those resulting in negative outcomes are diminished.

00:54What is Behavior?
9.3K
Behaviors are actions that an organism engages in—they can be related to finding food, reproducing, defending against threats, and many other possible actions. Behaviors include activities related to the environment around the animal—such as migration—as well as social interactions within a species or population. Many behaviors involve motor output—that is, muscle movements—while others involve less visible actions, such as learning.

01:28Behaviorism
2.4K
The field of behaviorism was pioneered by figures such as Ivan Pavlov, John B. Watson, and B.F. Skinner fundamentally shifted the focus of psychology to the observable and controllable aspects of human and animal behavior. This shift marked a critical evolution in the discipline, emphasizing scientific rigor and experimental methodology.
The core premise of behaviorism is its focus on observable behavior rather than internal thoughts or feelings. This approach argues that true scientific...

Not all intergroup interactions lead to negative outcomes. Sometimes, being in a group situation can improve performance. Social facilitation occurs when an individual performs better when an audience is watching than when the individual performs the behavior alone. This typically occurs when people are performing a task for which they are skilled.

01:27Secondary Motives: Power Motivation and Achievement Motivation
219
Power motivation and achievement motivation are two essential social motives identified by psychologist David McClelland. These motives influence behavior in various personal and professional contexts, shaping how individuals interact with others and pursue their goals.
Power motivation is characterized by the desire to influence, control, or have an impact on others. It is shaped by an individual's experiences, social environment, and cultural context. People with high power motivation are...
