Against this backdrop, this study answers a basic question; does DCM complexity add to competitive advantage? We applied the coevolutionary perspective to model DCM complexity as changes in subassemblies of components and links in a DCM. We tested the research model with empirical data on 485 digital competitive moves. We found that high-performing competitive moves leverage changes in digital technologies as their generative foundation while low-performing moves rely largely on traditional strategies such as price cuts. Further, when high-performing competitive moves are deployed in conjunction with a sequence of unexpected moves, a firm tends to obtain superior financial performance. We developed propositions to formalize a few principles for firms to strategically increase the complexity of DCMs to seize fleeting competitive advantages in turbulent business environments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Hidden Order to Hidden Solution: A Coevolutionary Perspective of Digital Competitive Moves by Ning Nan Associate Professor Accounting and Information Systems Division Sauder School of Business The University of British Columbia Friday, December 6 10:30 \u2013 12:00 pm | Speakman 200 Abstact: Technological advances and hypercompetition almost inevitably drive firms to attempt increasingly complex [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17227,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[783287,783286,783288],"class_list":{"0":"post-1263","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-uncategorized","7":"tag-coevolutionary-perspective","8":"tag-digital-competitive-move","9":"tag-firm-strategy","10":"entry"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1263","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17227"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1263"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1263\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1269,"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1263\/revisions\/1269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community.mis.temple.edu\/seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
