Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a few conclusions of the study on the dynamic capabilities of Romanian organizations that experienced a change trigger such as the need to adapt to the environment (reactive organizations) or to create or seize an opportunity (proactive organizations). Implementation of the study required the use of advanced statistical technique, such as second-order structural equation modelling in AMOS. This technique revealed the mathematical relations between the dynamic capabilities dimensions such as coordination, sensing and learning capabilities and highlights the differences among the proactive and reactive organizations. The results emphasize the differences among the components of the organizational dynamism of the Romanian proactive and reactive organizations. Through its findings, the study brings important evidence that strategic paradigm and processual modifications are required for organizations that want to make a shift from the reactive approach to a proactive one.
