Abstract:
To date, no standard scale exists for measuring dynamic capabilities. This limits the comparability of empirical findings and impairs data-based theory development. This article presents the development of a 14-item scale based on Teece’s (2007, Strategic Management Journal, 28, 1319–1350) well-established dynamic capability framework, assessing sensing, seizing, and transforming capacities. It describes the rigorous empirical scale development procedure comprising the steps of (i) item generation, (ii) scale purification (n = 269), and (iii) scale confirmation (n = 307). The scale shows high reliability and validity and is a solid predictor of business and innovation performance.
