Abstract: | Despite the vast proliferation of conceptual, theoretical, and empirical studies in adaptation-selection research, debate continues to surround a key question: how firms do strategically coevolve with their environments. This paper attempts to address part of this question by drawing on advances in strategic choice theory and resource- advantage theory. A scenario-based group methodology based around the "think tank" described in the first paper of this special issue is presented whereby marketing analyses of environmental contexts are described which lead to a series of recommended marketing strategies for response (selection), which fit the changing environments (adaptation). |
