The current work adds to the body of knowledge as to why some GMOs outperform others; this is a central issue to scholars and managers alike. Specifically, we attempt to build an understanding of the unique dimensions that help form the GMOs within an integrative and unifying framework. To this end, this study takes a step toward addressing a gap in the marketing literature by conceptualizing a set of key strategic constructs (i.e., strategy, structure, leadership, processes, culture, and industry globalization drivers) and empirically testing a framework composed of the interrelationships between these constructs and their impact on both marketing and financial performance. As such, the findings usher marketing managers to a normative terrain in that the manager finds a set of dictums for better performance. Specifically, this study mandates that (1) the development of leadership, strategy, and culture precedes the structure of GMOs; (2) strategy precedes structure; and (3) organizational structure and processes influence marketing and financial performance.
