    AOM Panel Symposium: "Shaping the Future: Past, Present, and Future Avenues for Research on Market Shaping" (Session 1744) Sponsored by: STR, OMT

    An emerging stream of behavioral strategy research has examined how firms can engage in shaping strategies to alter the competitive landscape of a market. Despite the pervasiveness of firms' shaping strategies, empirical answers to when and how firms engage in shaping and what capabilities lead to successful shaping remain rare. Given these fundamental challenges, this symposium seeks to bring together a group of scholars from diverse theoretical and methodological backgrounds to share their expertise on market shaping to facilitate future research on this important yet understudied topic. Specifically, this symposium will shed light on ways to: (i) differentiate between adaptive and shaping strategies, (ii) examine the capability antecedents of shaping firms, (iii) identify the role of various stakeholders in determining the success of focal firms' shaping strategies, and (iv) understand how new markets and ecosystems emerge from the dynamics of shaping processes.
