Abstract

LOPEZ LOPEZ, PAULA ANDREA. AN APPROXIMATION TO THE STRATEGIC THINKING STUDY FIELD FROM ACADEMIC PUBLICATIONS PERSPECTIVE: FROM THE PREDICTABLE TO THE EMERGENT. Rev.fac.cienc.econ. [online]. 2013, vol.21, n.1, pp.217-241. ISSN 0121-6805.

In the last two decades, various management authors have encouraged thoughts about the dominant paradigm in the strategy field. Critics have focused on the deterministic approach which has been used to deal with the strategic problem, establishing the necessity to question the prevailing mechanistic-rational model and propose new principals consistent with the current world conditions of organizations. In that sense, the present article is a systematic literature review that not only aims to point out the configuration of the strategic thinking elements in recent years, but also to recognize the characteristics of the emerging perspective that has been consolidated in the field.

Keywords : Strategic thinking; Strategy; Business strategy; Strategic approaches.
