Creating, adapting to, and exploiting change is inherentlyentrepreneurial. To survive and prosper under conditions of change,firms must develop the "dynamic capabilities" tocreate, extend, and modify the ways in which they operate. Thecapacity of an organization to create, extend, or modify itsresource base is vital.
Since the concept of dynamic capabilities was first introduced,much research has elaborated the initial idea. This important bookby Constance Helfat and her team of leading scholars provides atimely focus on in-depth examples of corporate dynamiccapabilities. Examining these in the different contexts ofalliances, acquisitions, and management, the book gives studentsand researchers a succinct, up-to-date definition of dynamiccapabilities and the strategic management theories around them.
