9781332259663: Environment Strategy Coalignment (Classic Reprint): An Empirical Test of Its Performance Implications

Synopsis

This book puts forth a theory on organizational performance, suggesting that businesses that align their strategies with their environments are more likely to succeed. The author develops and utilizes a holistic perspective to demonstrate the performance impacts of environment strategy coalignment and shows how this perspective is distinct from previous reductionist approaches. The book also provides evidence of the theory's validity and robustness through empirical tests conducted across two different time periods and eight distinct environments. The findings are significant as they provide strong support for the proposition that businesses that align their strategic resource deployments to the specific requirements of their environmental context achieve higher levels of performance.
