Effective Strategy Implementation

Adele J. Huber discovers that a firm’s strategy implementation capabilities are a key driver of the strategies' performance outcomes. Drawing on organizational learning theory, she identifies the organizational abilities and processes that constitute a firm's Strategy Implementation Capability construct and shows empirically that the concept is very valuable in explaining how innovative strategies translate into a firm's performance. Her findings are particularly interesting for managers and researchers who focus on strategy formulation and execution. They also show the relation between strategy implementation and competitive advantage.

Dr. Adele J. Huber wrote her dissertation under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Alexander Haas at the University of Bern (Switzerland). She works as a management consultant, focusing on marketing and brand strategy development and execution.
