Overall Contribution of PhD Thesis Sample Clauses

Overall Contribution of PhD Thesis. The contributions that I intend to make with this PhD thesis are relevant to different fields in the literature. The systematic literature review (Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx, 2018) highlights the current gaps in the literature about the use of digital communication, social and other types of technology in the SMP. The first empirical study is an attempt to fill one gap identified by the systematic literature review by outlining how and when businesses are using specific types of digital communication and social technologies in the SMP. Additionally, I am able to draw out a link between the use of certain digital communication technologies and improved relative business performance. The second empirical study takes the results from the first one further and investigates them in regard to factors explaining why firms adopt or do not adopt digital communication and social technologies for use in the SMP. As a complete monograph PhD thesis, this research makes a multi-field contribution. First, this thesis contributes to our understanding of technology use in strategic management by scoping and synthesizing current research on this topic. Second, it contributes to the SMP and the strategy-as-practice literature by outlining how social technologies are used. Third, it takes the results of the systematic literature review and the first empirical study to investigate the factors leading to the adoption of these technologies. By utilizing a larger- sized dataset consisting of quantitative data, this study is able to draw out more generalizable results. Additional contributions made by this study are also relevant to the strategic planning performance literature and open strategy research.
