Exploring the mediating role of dynamic capabilities in the relationship between intellectual capital and performance of information and communications technology firms

Recent studies suggest a potential relationship between intellectual capital dimensions and dynamic capabilities in achieving superior performance. However, these studies have made little effort to develop a framework for understanding this relationship, which is unsettling for managers. To examine...
