Abstract

The cooperation of alliance needs a powerful agent to coordinate each other’s activities. The broker agent who holds the structural holes position usually initiate this kind of governance because of the advantage of information and control. This paper tied to turn the focus from sharing the cake to making a bigger cake: exploring the relationship between governance and performance of triple alliance. Basing on two dimension of external environment complex and exploration capability, we design four situations. Using the simulation experiment we extend the Aggarwal’s model and explore how the governance initiated by broker agent affects the triple alliance’s performance. The results show that except for the extreme case of high complex and low capability governance will lead to different performance level. The final performance depends on the reasonable matching among complex, capability and governance. At the end we discuss the contribution and the possibility of extension in the future.
