Recognizing that deployment of the network as a cohesive and coordinated organization is critical when it operates globally, we ask: How does global expansion, in particular entry into emerging markets, affect the cohesion of a large interfirm network and with what consequences? We examine this question through an evolutionary perspective, conceptualizing the process of variation\u2013selection\u2013replication\u2013retention as one cycle of a network-level routine of global expansion. Movement through the cycle accelerates with high levels of network cohesion such that market entry and foreign establishment may become more rapid. We present a longitudinal analysis of the Toyota Group from founding through to its more recent entry into emerging markets, and identify the dangers of a diversion in any stage of this network routine. Our findings highlight the role uncertainty in the emerging market context and speed-based competition plays in the loss of network cohesion, and point to the ongoing, and possibly increased, importance of the core firm&#8217;s role in maintaining network cohesion and global competitive advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Full text available through\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S1090951612001034\">Journal of World Business\u00a0Volume 48, Issue 4, October 2013, Pages 455\u2013465<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faith Hatani\u00a0and\u00a0Sara L.
