Abstract

Based on the concept of organizational ambidexterity, this study presents evidence on the role of Corporate Universities (CU) in the deployment and configuration of capabilities to operationalize corporate strategy. Through a longitudinal case study of ZTE University in China, this paper has been able to verify different theoretical positions about the development of capabilities in a framework of simultaneous exploratory and exploitative innovation strategies and to clearly witness how the CU are dynamically linked with those development. The findings highlight the most relevant capabilities that drive the strategic orientation of the company and distinguishes those that are more likely to be exploited by the company through its CU.
