Resource Based View of the Firm and SWOT

Resource Based View of the Firm and SWOT

Resource-based view of the firm is a bit like a SWOT analysis. You analyze all the available resources of the business to further achieve its business goals. After that, evaluate and assess where you can improve and innovate on the available resources.

	RBV and SWOT I don't disagree 100%, Leah Lynda, but I do disagree mostly: - For one thing, "SWOT" includes "Opportunities and Threats," which are external to the firm. The RBV is internal. - For another, I believe that Jay Barney's typology of resources--as four types of capital--is a great way to begin the analysis of them. At the end of the day, though, we still need his VRINO (valuable, rare, inimitable, non-substitutable, organizationally aligned) framework to determine the durability and contribution to value that any capabilities (which are made of one or more 'routines,' which themselves comprise bundles of resources) may offer. Hope this helps.
