Pretende, também, analisar a influência dos fatores organizacionais e estratégicos sobre o grau de internacionalização da firma em termos de indicadores financeiros e não-financeiros de desempenho, respectivamente, volume de vendas e dispersão geográfica. Realizou-se um survey com 73 empresas brasileiras do setor de manufatura que desenvolvem negócios internacionais por meio de diferentes modalidades, desde a exportação até o investimento direto no estrangeiro. Os resultados encontrados evidenciam que fatores organizacionais associados ao tamanho da firma influenciam fundamentalmente o processo estratégico internacional das empresas pesquisadas, cujo desenrolar é demarcado por elementos centralizadores e racionais. O grau de internacionalização das empresas pesquisadas mostra-se influenciado pelo fator organizacional associado à experiência internacional e pelos fatores estratégicos associados ao modo deliberado de formação estratégica (top-down) e a escolha de parcerias internacionais. Palavras-chave: Internacionalização, processo estratégico internacional, características organizacionais, grau de internacionalização da firma.Editora Mackenzie2009-08-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordhttps://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/RAM/article/view/524Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 10 No. 5 (2009)Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 10 Núm. 5 (2009)Revista de Administração Mackenzie (Mackenzie Management Review); v. 10 n. 5 (2009)1678-69711518-6776reponame:RAM.
