A BRIEF
ABOUT
ARTICLE
2. Concern
for openness
(transparency)
3. Concerns over the firms ability to absorb the skills from the partner
(receptivity)
The second stage of research was conducted to understand the processes and
mechanism. Through which intent, receptivity and transparency impacted
learning outcomes.
Following were the outcomes:
Competitive collaboration
Some partners may regard internalization of scarce skills as the primary benefit
of international collaboration.
When learning is the goal, termination of the agreement cannot be seen as a
failure of the failure.
Asymmetry in learning within a collaboration may result in varying degree of
relative competence outside the collaboration.
Learning and bargaining power
Asymmetry in learning changes bargaining power within the alliance. In extreme
cases, it may lead to unilateral bargain power cornered by one alliance partner at
the cost of other.
The legal and governance structure may have only a minor say in the pattern of
inter-partnership
learning & bargaining power.
A partner that understands a partnership as a means of inter-partnership
learning, bargaining power and competitiveness will tend to be view it as a race
to learn.
