Resumen
Descripción
In this study we question the direct relationship between alliance capability and alliance performance.
We contend that this relationship is mediated through post-formation factors such as alliance
management and relational quality. Drawing from the Resource Based View a model is
presented that explicates these indirect relationships. Partial least squares analysis was used to
test three hypotheses, using a sample of Dutch alliance managers responsible for non-equity alliances
in agribusiness and the food industry. Our empirical findings affirm the hypothesized
indirect relationships between alliance capabilities and alliance performance.
