Thinking and acting strategically: new challenges for interrogating strategy

David C. Wilson, Paula Jarzabkowski

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This paper takes a critical and evaluative stance toward micro-activity-based approaches to understanding strategy. It argues that such approaches bring with them important theoretical and empirical challenges. The paper argues against a tendency to reductionism without equal emphasis to the contextual influences that bound micro-strategising. Finally, the paper argues for a more international and comparative approach to micro-strategy studies than has currently been the case.
