Value Creation and Value Appropriation in the Context of Public and Nonprofit Organizations
Sponsors: Sandro Cabral (Insper Institute of Education and Research, Brazil); Joseph T. Mahoney (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA); Matthew Potoski (Bren School of Environmental Science and Management)
This panel aims to promote a special issue for the Strategic Management Journal (SMJ) on value creation aspects in the context of public and nonprofit organizations, led by Sandro Cabral, Joe Mahoney, Anita McGahan, and Matthew Potoski. Practitioners and scholars struggle to understand the motives and strategic orientations of governments, non-profits, and private firms that seek to interact to create and allocate value among partners and stakeholders. This workshop also aims to add to the current knowledge of strategic management of public and non-profit organizations by putting together researchers interested in enhancing the understanding of value creation and appropriation when public, non-profit, and private organizations work together or in isolation. Yet, little is known about the mechanisms for harnessing the value creation potential and value appropriation dynamics of successful (and failed) partnerships. The workshop can be a stimulating venue to join scholars and enhance cross-disciplinary dialogue that can move forward the extant knowledge of value creation and appropriation in the pursuit of the public interest.
