Management Research: Strategic Management - Path Dependency Theory

Welcome, dear listeners,

 

In my new episode, I talk about the #pathdependency theory and explain why we use the #QWERTY keyboard. Path dependency is a very powerful, yet a bit deterministic #theory which is of great importance for a good #strategist.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Environmental Analysis (PEST)

Welcome, dear listeners!

Today, I talk about one of the tools for the #environmental #analysis in #strategicmanagement - #pest. PEST stands for #political, #economic, #social (& #cultural), and #technological factors. Although the tool is vague and has plenty of issues (I mention those briefly), it is the best that we have for now. So, apply it wisely and learn the weaknesses before analysing the market environment!

Management Research: Strategic Management - Strategy for Non-profit Organisations

Welcome, dear listeners!

Today, I talk about differences in #strategicmanagement for #nonprofit #organisations. Interestingly, some scholars argue that non-profit organisations work in a different environment and, thus, economic mechanisms work for them differently. So, can we apply the knowledge from the field of strategic management or do we need a specific -#strategic #management for non-profits? In this #podcast episode, I try to give an answer to this question.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Corporate Social Responsibility

Welcome, dear listeners, to the next episode of my #managementresearch #podcast!

Today, I briefly talk about #Corporate #Social #Responsibility (#csr) and the reason why this topic is debated. There is no clear view on CSR in any country, but we know that responsible acting is something desired. But why do many fail in pursuing CSR? Or why do we have so many visions of the concept? Why are firms not always happy if being asked to act more responsibly?

I try to answer some of these questions in this episode. Please share your opinion on the issue and give your examples of (un)successful CSR policies.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Stakeholder Analysis

Welcome, dear friends and listeners!

In today's show, I talk about the #stakeholders and a simple way to organise them and #manage them. Based on the two scales - level of interest and level of power - stakeholders can be approached in a structured way. When developing your #strategy, you should always think about whose #interest you are developing it.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Intended vs Emergent Strategy

Welcome, dear listeners, to the next #episode in the #management #research #podcast!

Today, I talk about the intended and emergent strategy. These are two opposing poles in the approach to #strategising. Would you make a very precise plan and stick to it (#intendedstrategy) or will you try to remain flexible and grasp any opportunity that emerges on the market (#emergentstrategy)? In real life, the #strategies and strategising of firms and individuals are somewhere in between.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Strategic Moves

Dear friends

In my previous episode, I gave examples of strategic moves in #warinukraine. In this episode, I give a definition and provide you with some examples of #strategic moves at an individual's and a firm's level. In the end, I also share with you my vision regarding #tourism #investments in #Tyrol and #Innsbruck that I hold for wrong strategic moves, by the way. 

I am eager to hear your examples and feedback! Use the comment section below to share your thoughts and ideas.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Strategic Moves in the Ukraine War

Hello, dear listeners,

Today's episode will give examples of #strategic #moves in the #active #phase of the #warinukraine. The most active phase of the #war started in 2022, while the war has been going on since 2014. 

After February 2022, one could trace several strategic moves (it is not the whole strategy, of course), i.e. decisions that shaped the #battlefield for weeks, months, and years. Think of one of my previous episodes with the example from the #chess #game. In a war, the logic is the same, yet more #complex, more #uncertain, and #unpredictable. Tough #planning is, therefore, impossible. But a good strategic move can make your further play/war easier, providing you with more #flexibility and #decisionpower.

Management Research: Strategic Management - Strategy as Positioning vs Strategy as Direction

Welcome to my new #managementresearch #podcast episode!

Today, I discuss #strategy as #positioning and strategy as #direction. Suppose you want to be successful and have motivated personnel. In that case, you have to define your correct #corporate and #business strategy as positioning first - which industry are you competing in and how are you competing right now? Yet, it is not sufficient as people need a goal. So, you need to add your personnel a feeling of perspective - where you want to be in a few years and how you want to compete by then. This is called "strategy as direction". 

In this episode, I elaborate on this topic and give imaginary and real examples from the #mci strategy.

Enjoy and share your ideas. By the way, how do you see our strategy? How do you see the strategy of your firm?
