| Abstract: | This article proceeds from the widespread assumption - a truism, apparently - that the longevity of corporations is very much beholden to the success in their processes of strategic planning and the manner in which they learn from, and adapt to, those processes. The predominant strategic paradigm used in corporations, that of the rational planning school, assumes that language is transparent and time is linear. Such assumptions don't hold up in a complex world. Emergent strategy has the potential to address the current challenges of organizations by shifting the language and talk about strategizing. |
