Does size matter? Balancing power in dyadic cooperation relationships

Research output: Journal contributionsJournal articlesResearch

Authors

The authors examine the extent to which differences in dependency and power burden cooperative relationships between small and large companies. They also identify the consequences of the behaviour of the cooperation partners. For both small and large cooperation partners, the authors discuss various withdrawal and investment strategies as options for balancing dependency and power among the partners and they sketch possible development paths for such asymmetrical cooperation arrangements.
