Description
Summary:taking into account the existence of several control systems in a single firm. This book reports on research with precisely this orientation. With one exception, the studies presented in the book are based on research conducted in doctoral thesis projects. Without a doubt, these studies are unique in both extent and focus, and they provide highly valuable contributions to the research area of strategy and management control. They represent a considerable effort in regard to resources and involvement over an extended period. Moreover, all the firms and organizations presented are interesting and exciting, each with a fascinating history. The reader is given an in-depth look into how changes in the environment lead to adjustments in strategies and control systems. It is also clear how difficult and challenging it is to implement these changes and why such efforts are not always successful. But perhaps most importantly, the book conveys in-depth knowledge and understanding of how strategies and control systems affect competitive advantage and performance.
