Dynamic Capabilities (Teece-based)

StrategyReliability: alpha 0.893 sample items

About this scale

A multi-item measure of dynamic capabilities across three categories: sensing (identifying opportunities), seizing (capturing opportunities), and transforming (reconfiguring resources).

Sample item(s)

“We continually scan the environment for new opportunities (sensing)”
“We allocate resources rapidly to seize opportunities (seizing)”
“We reconfigure our resources and processes in response to change (transforming)”

Reliability

Reported internal consistency: alpha 0.89. As a rule of thumb, Cronbach’s α ≥ .70 is considered acceptable, ≥ .80 good, and ≥ .90 excellent for established measures.

Notes

Most cited dynamic-capabilities formulation.
