This session is designed to explore factors that affect the evolution of organizational forms. The increasing de-integration of organizational value chains and renewed emphasis on innovation suggest the importance of understanding the causes and consequences of changes in firm boundaries. The panelists will offer presentations on factors affecting the evolution of organizational forms from dynamic transaction cost, problem solving, and evolutionary perspectives paying particular attention to the assumptions associated with these perspectives, the association between organizational evolution and the evolution of productive capabilities, and opportunities for future impactful research. Audience participants may expect to engage in discussion regarding associations between exogenous (consumer, technological, or regulatory) changes to the selection environment, the influence of path dependency, and the development of superior activities or capabilities relative to one's competitors.
