The Determinants of New Venture Performance: An Extended Model

James J. Chrisman, Alan Bauerschmidt and Charles W. Hofer

Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, 1998, vol. 23, issue 1, 5-29

Abstract: This article argues that new venture formation is a special case of strategic management theory. Thus, Sandberg & Hofer's (1987) model of new venture performance, which states that new venture performance is a function of industry structure, venture strategy, and the founding entrepreneur, must be extended to include the resources and the organizational structure, processes, and systems developed by the venture to implement its strategy and achieve its objectives. The key assumptions underlying this model are presented, and specific propositions concerning how resources and organizational structure, processes, and systems affect new venture performance are developed.
