Abstract: | This study identifies generic Japanese strategy clusters and explores their performance implications. It is based on Japanese
executives’ perceptions of the veracity of various PIMS strategy principles in Japan. Three distinct strategy clusters are
identified around market position and product strategy dimensions. These Japanese strategy clusters, when moderated by such
contingency factors as strategic orientation and product life cycle stage, offer unique performance implications for the Japanese
market.
