Technological Learning and Competitive Performance
Paulo Figueiredo comprehensively examines how and why latecomer companies differ in the manner and rate at which they accumulate technological capability over time. He focuses on how key features of the underlying learning processes influence the paths of technological capability accumulation and, in turn, the rate of improvement in operational performance.

作者详细介绍了公司从外部和内部来源，通过个人获得知识，然后转换或未能将其转换为组织资产的各种过程和机制。在巴西两家最大的钢铁公司的一生中，对这些不同的管理技术学习方式进行了详细研究。他继续证明，如果采取故意有效的努力来改善知识获取和知识转换过程，则可以加快技术能力 - 积累率和运营绩效的提高的速度。确实，这些努力可能会为有效管理这些流程的公司带来重大财务利益。作者在他的经验分析中是严格的，并通过专注于非工业化国家内的后来公司来采用原始观点。
The focus of analysis and the practical approach developed within the book will interest students and scholars of business, technology, innovation, and strategic management, as well as providing a source of reference and information for policymakers and managers in private and state-owned organisations.

‘This book is an impressive, original and substantive contribution to the literature on capability development in “latecomer” firms. It furthers and deepens understanding of the intricate processes of technological learning and provides insights into the organisational needs of learning, and the interactions between particular strategies for learning. The amount of new empirical material is impressive, well presented and carefully analysed. The work can become a benchmark for future studies of capability building.’
