Abstract

This study aims to discern the moderating role of the activity regime (exporter or not) on the relationship between strategic capabilities and competitive strategies. Referring to the resource-based approach we examine, through a score, the simultaneous effect of five groups of strategic capabilities; including managerial, technological, marketing, information technology and market linkages; on competitive strategies. Using a quantitative hypothetico-deductive approach and among the structural equations method, the study confirms the moderating role of the activity regime on the relationship between strategic capabilities and competitive strategies in a sample of Tunisian manufacturing companies. Nevertheless, this moderating effect has just reversed the sense of the positive relationship between strategic capabilities and competitive strategies.
