Bio of Edith Penrose
Edith (Elura Tilton) Penrose (1914–1996) was a USA-born British citizen who spent significant time of her academic career in Europe, first at the London School of Economics and later becoming the first woman faculty in INSEAD who also served as Dean for Faculty. She published several articles and books, some of which became seminal in the management field, such as her 1952 article challenging the biological or evolutionary analogy of the firm and her book titled ‘The Theory of the Growth of the Firm’ first published in 1959 in which she challenged the then dominant (economics’) view of the optimal size of the firm: firms continue to grow because their managers identify in firms’ resources potential of generating new services and serving a market need. That is why Penrose is considered the forerunner of the resource-based view of the firm.
