| Research Abstract |
The contribution this project produced in fiscal 2007 was twofold. First, the project clarified and positioned "research on strategic drift' in the context of strategy research, e.g., Positioning View and Resource-based View. Second, the project explicated the strand of Japanese empirical research on strategy that was originated around the early 1980s and culminated in 1990s.
As regards the first point, the project positioned "research on strategic drift" in the context theory development process of conflicting viewpoints on strategy research, i.e., Positioning View and Resource-based View. The research on strategic drift is a kind of a larger research strand that emphasizes social interactions among organizational members and other agents. The research has a dynamic point of view, which is missing in both Positioning view and Resource-based View. And, there remains much room for further research in the area of strategic drift.
Second, the project clarified the research strand of the Japanese empirical researchers on strategy process. Professors Ikujiro NONAKA, Hiroyuki ITAMI, and Tadao KAGONO have been the outstanding figures in this field from the late 1970s through 1990s. The Project contends that their academic contributions have very important impact on the formation of Resource-based View, but the essential point of their contribution (i.e., research on dynamic interactions among key players and their vigorous search for unintended consequences of intendedly rational actions) has not made major impact on the RBV. This will precipitate newer generation of researchers to undertake this kind of research in the near future.
