They are
the new capacities that a company should have due to the environment
they find themselves in - unstable, competitive and dynamic. They
demand organizations to be flexible and capable of responding to any
changes that are found in their environment.
To create
dynamic capacities you need:
- latent
capacities.- they are the resources that are available in the
organiztion that can be used to regenerate old capacities, building
new capacities by making the older rigid current capacities even better.
They come from accumulated experience and consider the company as
a knowledge warehouse. They imply forgeting what you have learned
and being able to learn new routines.
- peripheral
capacities.- they don't belong to the current basic capacities,
but they exist elsewhere in the organization. They are seperated from
the basic capacities. They act as a knowledge reserve and as resources
that serve to renovate the basic capacities. You can transfer capacities
from outside the organiztion to the nucleus of the organiztion.
The company
should be flexible, giving this flexibility from within, that's to
say from the resources and capacities that the company has at a certain
moment in time. With this requirement the company will be able to
cope with the changes in the environment, instead of being taken over
by the changes and allowing them to condition the survival of the
company. A flexible and dynamic company has greater opportunities
than other companies to find a competitive advantage.
