Technological Competence, Technology Aversion and Strategic Manufacturing Competitiveness Available to Purchase

The relationship between technology and strategic competitiveness is investigated. It is suggested that effective management of employees and equipment can speed technological advances to customers. However,managerial technological knowledge of the production process and technical aspects of equipment are of paramount importance for the successful implementation of any competitive strategy. Future areas of empirical investigation through testable propositions are suggested. Each proposition is a hypothesis and major study in itself, and it is hoped that future researchers will statistically analyse each proposition to confirm or deny its validity.
