Abstract:
Today, the importance of growth and its relation with the survival of the organization is well-known by all managers. However, path selection in this area seems extremely vague and difficult. The present theoretical research, conducted to help further clarify growth dimension characteristics, aims at considering possible growth paths for firms as well as examining required capabilities for each path. In this research, firm growth was studied from three different angles: value chain, product system complexity and the market. A relatively comprehensive categorization was made of organizational capabilities namely technological, managerial and networking and it was examined within dynamic and static approaches. Finally, some hypotheses were suggested on the relation between these two frameworks and propositions were made for further research on the topic
