Chapter IV in Toward an Integrative Explanation of Corporate Financial Performance, 1996, pp 175-215 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The key question addressed in this book is: what drives superior financial performance? Important component questions include: why do some firms consistently perform better than others? why do poorly performing firms improve profitability? why do once successful firms suffer profit declines, and what can be done about it? what keeps consistently under performing firms from improving profitability, and what can be done about it? Answers to these questions should lead directly to advice for managers on how corporations might improve financial performance.
