Does size matter? Entrepreneurial orientation and performance in Spanish sports firms
2016
The entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of firms is the subject of current research in the fields of management and business. However, analyses on this subject in sport companies are lacking. This study analyzes the relationship among EO, firm size, and business performance of Spanish sports service firms. The study analyzes EO as a multidimensional construct (with proactiveness, innovation, and risk-taking dimensions), and business performance considering self-perception (perceived customer satisfaction, perceived market effectiveness, and perceived financial performance) and financial indicators (ROI). The firm size follows the EU's directive for the classification of micro, small, medium, a…

Cycles de vie et événements-ruptures dans la franchise : conséquences sur le pilotage de la relation franchiseur-franchisés. Une approche par le cont…
2007
What is franchise? It's a beautiful wedding. At first we believe it. Unfortunately in a wedding he ends up having moments of lassitude, moments of disappointment and then arguments. "A network is based on the human relationship, so it remains fragile. Anyway, if a network has problems, it's because the franchisor has failed. A franchisee has no reason to be at war with his franchisor if all goes well. And if it goes wrong is that the franchisor has failed at some point in the relationship, in the result or in the products. This is because there is a problem with the headend. "

Prevision model and empirical test of box office results for sequels
2021
International audience; As studios release an increasing number of movie sequels, scholars have begun to examine this strategic choice. Prior studies use standard models of box office performance to evaluate sequels’ performance and have mainly compared the box office results of the original movie with those of its sequel. However, sequels hold a unique position in the motion picture market since they are strongly associated with the original movie. Using the accessibility-diagnosticity framework, this research investigates the drivers behind the success of sequels and examines specifically the original movie’s impact through the role of reviews. The results – from 232 movies (116 original …
Products labeled as “made in domestic country”: the brand matters
2020
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to better understand an increasingly widespread practice consisting, of a brand, in signaling the domestic origin of its products aimed at domestic consumers, that is, the “made in the domestic country” (MIDC) strategy. To this end, it is proposed to analyze the MIDC label as a cue interacting with the brand’s characteristics (brand equity and country of origin of the brand). Design/methodology/approach A between-subjects experiment is conducted among 293 French consumers on four different brands of pasta. The overall design is a 2 (with/without the MIDC label) × 2 (high/low brand equity) × 2 (domestic/foreign brand) mixed design. Findings The results s…
An Integrated Retailer Image and Brand Equity Framework : Re-examining, Extending, and Restructuring Retailer Brand Equity
2017
Retailers are amongst the world's strongest brands, but little is known about retailer brand equity. In spite of their extensive use, we argue that current operational models are too abstract for understanding the uniqueness of the retail industry and too simplistic to understand the interrelationships among the dimensions in the retailer brand equity building process. This study contributes to the existing and largely generic retailer equity frameworks in three ways: first, by incorporating retail specific dimensions from the retailer image literature; second, by re-examining and developing the structures and relationships between the dimensions of retailer equity by testing alternative st…
Unraveling the link between managerial risk-taking and innovation: The mediating role of a risk-taking climate
2015
Scholars have proposed that taking risks in organizations is important for explaining innovation performance. Scholars traditionally have analyzed this link from two unconnected perspectives. From a managerial perspective, entrepreneurial orientation and leadership theories have been used to explain the positive relation between manager's risk-taking and innovation. On the other hand, research on creativity suggests that a risk-taking climate helps to explain the generation of novel ideas. However, there is little empirical research analyzing this link. This study examines the possibility of a connection between managerial risk-taking propensity, risk-taking climate and innovation performan…
