Cover of Strategy Process – Shaping the Contours of the Field
Despite voluminous research, managing the process through which leaders shape, implement, and change strategy remains ill understood. This volume provides an overarching framework to help cumulate the research on strategy process and define the contours of the field. The framework offered in the book provides a basis for the continuous refinement of the field's research agenda. It has been shared with strategy process researchers and practitioners at the Strategic Management Society's meetings and mini-conference on strategy process research. The book itself comprises nine papers written by North American and European scholars, and is clustered into four streams that follow from the framework: chapters that track strategy content longitudinally chapters that study the impact of important strategy process elements on performance chapters that study the links between a firm's context and process elements chapters that seek to study context/process/outcomes The editors provide a commentary on the strengths and weaknesses of each stream
