| Tiivistelmä: | The relative usefulness of inertial and adaptive views of organizations is explored by examining the evolution of strategy over time and the conditions under which change in strategy occurs. Findings show that characteristics of conditions at founding, including the extent to which an intitial strategy is dominant, the distribution of functional influence is aligned with the dominant strategy, and a firm is owned by its founding managers, help to imprint the initial strategy of a firm by building internal consensus around a given strategic approach. Conditions subsequent to founding, including an organization's performance, its age, and the length of the tenure of its founding entrepreneur, also influence the degree to which this strategy is perpetuated. |
