In neo-institutional theory literature, studies of decoupling have provided only a binary view of the employees of symbolic structures: ceremonial props or change agents. To obtain a richer view of the working life of these particular individuals, we rely on an instrumental case study to examine how they perceive a decoupling situation and do their...

The narrativizing of practices is a textual ‘way of operating’, having its own procedures and tactics. […] Shouldn’t we recognize its scientific legitimacy by assuming that instead of being a remainder that cannot be, or has not yet been, eliminated from discourse, narrativity has a necessary function in it, and that a theory of narration is indiss...

div class="page" title="Page 1"> There is no need to present another ANP-based approach for weighting criteria within decision making contexts. Academic literature in disciplines like economics, engineering, political sciences, statistics or mathematics testify to the broadness of topics, situations and cultures where the method’s value has been p...

Now in its second edition, this extended and thoroughly updated handbook introduces researchers and students to the growing range of theoretical and methodological perspectives being developed in the vibrant field of strategy as practice. With new authors and additional chapters, it shows how the strategy-as-practice approach in strategic managemen...

Knowledge management implementation frameworks in the literature tend to provide one-fit-all models, assuming homogeneous organizational contexts and passive recipient organizations. This is an important drawback, as knowledge management (KM), like any management concepts, evolves in implementation through custom adaptation and reconfiguration by l...

Central to the controversy regarding the practical utility of academic research is the academic-practitioner gap, which is characterized by the opposition between 'rigor' and 'relevance'. We contribute to this discussion by proposing Dewey's pragmatism as a perspective that helps resolve the rigor-relevance divide. If the rigor-relevance dichotomy...

We extend research on management ideas by providing a narrative framework for studying how management ideas are consumed. We dwell upon Certeau’s (1984) work on the practice of consumption and Ricœur’s (1983) concept of emplotment. Specifically, we study, over a 20-year time period, how Cement Inc., a multinational company, adopted and used knowled...

The Cambridge Handbook of Strategy as Practice provides a comprehensive overview of an emerging and growing stream of research in strategic management. An international team of scholars has been assembled to produce a systematic introduction to the various epistemological, methodological and theoretical aspects of the strategy-as-practice approach....

Depuis quelques années, les organisations voient l’apparition d’un nouveau salarié baptisé individu « hypermoderne » dont le management pose problème. L’hyper compétition internationale, la mondialisation, la financiarisation des entreprises comme les mutations technologiques ont conduit à une mutation sociale sans précédent et à la naissance de no...

These evolutions particularly concern the IT department which develops and manages the IT programs and infrastructures within the organisation.

Prendre en compte la nature textuelle des productions strategiques de l’organisation conduit a souligner le role fondamental de la lecture dans la formation de la strategie. La dynamique des textes strategiques s’inscrit dans un double mouvement: d’une part, ils se constituent recursivement a partir des recits ordinaires lies aux activites quotidie...

Strategy is a pervasive and consequential practice in mostWestern societies. We respond to strategy’s importance by drawing an initial map of strategy as an organizational field that embraces not just firms, but consultancies, business schools, the state and financial institutions. Using the example of Enron, we show how the strategy field is prone...

This book is a collection of texts that explore the analogy between organizing and narrating, between action and text. The raw material of everyday organizational life consists of disconnected fragments, physical and verbal actions that do not make sense when reported with simple chronology. Narrating is organizing this raw and fragmented material...

Cette recherche a pour objectif d'établir un cadre conceptuel et méthodologique pour l'étude des représentations et des discours stratégiques et de l'appliquer à l'industrie de l'Environnement. La première partie fait la critique des approches cognitives en management stratégique. Elle établit que si celles-ci envisagent bien le rôle des interactio...

Strategic management researchers are increasingly showing interest in the underlying assumptions behind strategic decisions made by managers. This article intends to revisit the conceptual framework currently available to study managers' representations. Many researchers in cognitive and social sciences have indeed suggested that construction may b...
