Abstract

The aim of this paper is to examine the sources of regional airport economic effectiveness from the perspective of the Dynamic Capabilities View, a much debated theoretical construct of organization and management discourse in recent years. The category of dynamic capabilities embraces those organizational competencies which enable organizations to modify their routines, operational capabilities and resources with the aiming of adapting to business environmental changes. The research results, conducted on a full sample of Polish regional airports, suggest that there is a difference among regional airports in perceiving the role of particular dynamic capabilities in achieving economic effectiveness. Some dynamic capabilities are more important for small regional airports in comparison with their larger rivals. Research conducted on similar groups suggests that heterogeneity in shaping dynamic capabilities exists within organizations operating in the same sector.
