Ralph Stacey; Christopher Mowles

Strategic Management and Organisational Dynamics: The challenge of complexity to ways of thinking about organisations

Hertfordshire Business School

Research output: Book/Report › Book

Abstract

Strategic Management and Organisational Dynamics remains unique amongst strategic management textbooks by taking a refreshingly alternative look at the subject. Drawing on the sciences of complexity as well as a broad range of social scientific literature, Stacey and Mowles challenge the conceptual orthodoxy of planned strategy, focusing instead on emergence and the predictable unpredictability of organisational life.
