Examining some of the new and emerging issues in strategic management,
Loizos Heracleous offers a fresh approach to the established ideas of
strategy. Beginning with the historical development of the strategy
field, including the influence of industrial organisation and the
resource-based view, he develops a new perspective labelled an
'organisational action' view of strategy. This approach is
theoretically underlain by organisation theory and takes seriously
such issues as the role of agency, the need for a longitudinal focus
on process, the complexities of strategy implementation, and
organisational facets such as strategic choice, organisational
culture, organisational discourses and learning. Combining theoretical
subtlety with an applied orientation, Heracleous examines topical
areas such as corporate governance, inter-organisational networks, and
organising for the future. With original research and extensive
surveys of the strategy literature, combined with a strong practical
orientation, this book is ideal for MBA students, strategy researchers
and the more thoughtful practitioner.
