Abstract
This paper draws on the resource dependence theory to examine the relationship between internal/external diffusion and performance improvement in a supply chain. The results from survey of 375 respondents show that two patterns of IOS diffusion - internal diffusion and external diffusion - have different impact on a firm?s performance improvement according to different power imbalance and mutual dependence.
