  • Know thy enemies: the competitive sensemaking of markets   Order a copy of this article
    by Desmond Ng 
    Abstract: Due to the increasing dynamism of markets, changes in the competitive landscape have made the assessment of competitive boundaries a significant concern to scholars of managements. The objective of this study is to develop a competitive sense-making approach to explain how firms develop a shared as well as an ambiguous understanding of competitive boundaries. A unique contribution of this study is that it introduces an endogenous explanation of the competitive boundary process. This endogenous explanation appeals to a firms past (retrospective) and future (prospective) sense-making processes that not only define the firms competitive relationships, but that these relationships create a shared and ambiguous understanding of competitive boundaries. A novel agent base simulation model was developed to examine this competitive sense-making process where it shows institutional influences involving a markets population dynamics can moderate the firms competitive sense-making.
    Keywords: competition; enactment; sense-making; ABS; agent-based simulation.
