The field of strategy science has grown in both the diversity of
issues it addresses and the increasingly interdisciplinary
approaches it adopts in understanding the nature and significance
of problems that are continuously emerging in the world of human
endeavor. These newer kinds of challenges and opportunities arise
in all forms of organizations, encompassing private and public
enterprises, and with strategies that experiment with breaking the
traditional molds and contours. The field of strategy science is
also, perhaps inevitably, being impacted by the proliferation of
hybrid organizations such as strategic alliances, the upsurge of
approaches that go beyond the customary emphasis on competitiveness
and profit making, and the intermixing of time-honored categories
of activities such as business, industry, commerce, trade,
government, the professions, and so on. The blurring of the
boundaries between various areas and types of human activities
points to a need for academic research to address the consequential
developments in strategic issues. Hence, research and thinking
about the nature of issues to be tackled by strategy science should
also cultivate requisite variety in issues recognized for research
inquiry, including the conceptual foundations of strategy and
strategy making, and the examination of the critical roles of
strategy makers, strategic thinking, time and temporalities,
business and other goal choices, diversity in organizing modes for
strategy implementation, and the complexities of managing strategy,
to name a few. This book series on Research in Strategy Science
aims to provide an outlet for ideas and issues that publications in
the field do not provide, either expressly or adequately,
especially as regards the comprehensive coverage deserved by
certain emerging areas of interest. The topics of the volumes in
the series will keep in view this objective to expand the research
areas and theoretical approaches routinely found in strategy
science, the better to permit expanded and expansive treatments of
promising issues that may not sufficiently align with the usual
research coverage of publications in the field. Managerial Practice
Issues in Strategy and Organization contains contributions by
leading scholars on significant issues relating to managerial
practices in the field of strategy science research. The 11
chapters in this volume cover the topics of Big Science
collaborations, open innovations in pharmaceutical companies,
complementary roles and relative optimism of company CEOs, CFOs,
and Board Chairs, business modelling, management of uncertainty,
meta-management practices, proximity in innovation networks,
institutional logics in alliances, and using technology in
teaching. The chapters collectively present a wide-ranging review
of the noteworthy research perspectives on the managerial practice
issues in strategy and organization.
Behavioral strategy continues to attract increasing research
interest within the broader field of strategic management. Research
in behavioral strategy has clear scope for development in tandem
with such traditional streams of strategy research that involve
economics, markets, resources, and technology. The key roles of
psychology, organizational behavior, and behavioral decision making
in the theory and practice of strategy have yet to be
comprehensively grasped. Given that strategic thinking and
strategic decision making are importantly concerned with human
cognition, human decisions, and human behavior, it makes eminent
sense to bring some balance in the strategy field by complementing
the extant emphasis on the "objective" economics-based view with
substantive attention to the "subjective" individual-oriented
perspective. This calls for more focused inquiries into the role
and nature of the individual strategy actors, and their cognitions
and behaviors, in the strategy research enterprise. For the
purposes of this book series, behavioral strategy would be broadly
construed as covering all aspects of the role of the strategy maker
in the entire strategy field. The scholarship relating to
behavioral strategy is widely believed to be dispersed in diverse
literatures. These existing contributions that relate to behavioral
strategy within the overall field of strategy has been known and
perhaps valued by most scholars all along, but were not adequately
appreciated or brought together as a coherent sub-field or as a
distinct perspective of strategy. This book series on Research in
Behavioral Strategy will cover the essential progress made thus far
in this admittedly fragmented literature and elaborate upon
fruitful streams of scholarship. More importantly, the book series
will focus on providing a robust and comprehensive forum for the
growing scholarship in behavioral strategy. In particular, the
volumes in the series will cover new views of interdisciplinary
theoretical frameworks and models (dealing with all behavioral
aspects), significant practical problems of strategy formulation,
implementation, and evaluation, and emerging areas of inquiry. The
series will also include comprehensive empirical studies of
selected segments of business, economic, industrial, government,
and non-profit activities with potential for wider application of
behavioral strategy. Through the ongoing release of focused topical
titles, this book series will seek to disseminate theoretical
insights and practical management information that will enable
interested professionals to gain a rigorous and comprehensive
understanding of the subject of behavioral strategy. Innovation and
Behavioral Strategy contains contributions by leading scholars in
the field of innovation with an interest in researching behavioral
perspectives. The 9 chapters in this volume deal with a number of

disruptions, collaborative communities, performance of small-scale
entrepreneurs, supply chain innovation alliances, new partner
selection for innovation, coopetition in networks, and
public-private innovation alliances. The chapters include empirical
as well as conceptual treatments of the selected topics, and
collectively present a wide-ranging review of the noteworthy
research perspectives on innovation and behavioral strategy.

Behavioral strategy continues to attract increasing research
interest within the broader field of strategic management. Research
in behavioral strategy has clear scope for development in tandem
with such traditional streams of strategy research that involve
economics, markets, resources, and technology. The key roles of
psychology, organizational behavior, and behavioral decision making
in the theory and practice of strategy have yet to be
comprehensively grasped. Given that strategic thinking and
strategic decision making are importantly concerned with human
cognition, human decisions, and human behavior, it makes eminent
sense to bring some balance in the strategy field by complementing
the extant emphasis on the "objective' economics-based view with
substantive attention to the "subjective" individual-oriented
perspective. This calls for more focused inquiries into the role
and nature of the individual strategy actors, and their cognitions
and behaviors, in the strategy research enterprise. For the
purposes of this book series, behavioral strategy would be broadly
construed as covering all aspects of the role of the strategy maker
in the entire strategy field. The scholarship relating to
behavioral strategy is widely believed to be dispersed in diverse
literatures. These existing contributions that relate to behavioral
strategy within the overall field of strategy has been known and
perhaps valued by most scholars all along, but were not adequately
appreciated or brought together as a coherent sub-field or as a
distinct perspective of strategy. This book series on Research in
Behavioral Strategyi will cover the essential progress made thus
far in this admittedly fragmented literature and elaborate upon
fruitful streams of scholarship. More importantly, the book series
will focus on providing a robust and comprehensive forum for the
growing scholarship in behavioral strategy. In particular, the
volumes in the series will cover new views of interdisciplinary
theoretical frameworks and models (dealing with all behavioral
aspects), significant practical problems of strategy formulation,
implementation, and evaluation, and emerging areas of inquiry. The
series will also include comprehensive empirical studies of
selected segments of business, economic, industrial, government,
and non-profit activities with potential for wider application of
behavioral strategy. Through the ongoing release of focused topical
titles, this book series will seek to disseminate theoretical
insights and practical management information that will enable
interested professionals to gain a rigorous and comprehensive
understanding of the subject of behavioral strategy. Decision

flows, behavioral responses, business modeling, and alliance
capability. The chapters include empirical as well as conceptual
treatments of the selected topics, and collectively present a
wide-ranging review of the noteworthy research perspectives on
