Strategic Management's Potential Contributions to a Theory of Entrepreneurship
概述战略管理各学派,指出其关注“组织的创业工作”可能有助于解决创业领域在定义和边界上的分歧,并具体探讨战略管理对新企业创建、创新、机会寻求等问题的贡献。
The article offers an overview of strategic management and its various schools of thought, followed by a summary of the field of entrepreneurship and its own disagreements over definition and boundaries. It suggests that strategic management might help resolve such disagreements through its focus on “the entrepreneurial work of the organization,” which is based on variables that describe the organization's industry, resources, processes, and strategy. Finally, the article both describes and proposes contributions of strategic management to entrepreneurship theory, specifically addressing issues of new business creation, innovation, opportunity seeking, risk assumption, top management teams, and group processes in strategic decisions.
