The Ecological Analysis of Business Strategy

Research on business strategy suffers because it often relies on retrospective case studies. Strategic alternatives are discussed without information on the range of existing practices. In addition, the rate at which new strategies are adopted and implemented is unknown. Studying populations of organizations over time avoids these problems and offers promise for a more sophisticated and methodologically rigorous approach to strategic studies for both researcher and practitioner.
