Strategic renewal and the interaction of cumulative stress and inertia
提出一个四阶段模型，描述组织如何在维持性更新与根本性重构之间转换，通过模拟展示惯性（对当前战略的承诺）与压力（不满信号）的互动如何影响战略演化。
Strategic renewal is accomplished in large and small ways. This paper proposes a four phase characterization of how organizations move between state sustaining renewal and the more radical reconceptualizations that significantly alter organization activity. The argument juxtaposes inertia (or commitment to current strategy) and stress, the dissatisfactions that signal the need for renewal. To explore the details of this interaction, and its implications for the evolution of strategy over time, a formal model is developed. Quite plausible organization paths of renewal are simulated via the model which help illustrate our main theoretic arguments.
