Real options theory has attracted significant interest in the field
of strategic management. Advocates of the approach emphasize that
importing concepts from financial economics holds out the potential
of yielding new insights on strategic decision-making under
uncertainty as well as boundary-of-the-firm issues that are the
focus of competitive and corporate strategy. While considerable
progress has been made in conceptualizing different types of real
options for various strategic investments, considerably less has
been done to empirically validate the core propositions of real
options theory. As a result there is much debate about the merits
and promise of real options in strategy.
In light of the recent interest in real options as well as these
trends in the field, this volume examines the ways in which real
options theory can contribute to strategic management. This volume
offers conceptual pieces that trace out pathways for the theory to
move forward and presents new research on the implications of real
options for strategic investment, organization, and firm
performance. The compendium synthesizes and critiques the research
on real options as well as offers a catalyst for further research
on this theory in the strategy field.
*Seeks to examine the ways in which real options theory can
contribute to strategic management.
*Includes conceptual pieces that unearth some of the key stumbling
blocks and trace out pathways for real options theory to move
forward

Too often, believers say they struggle with their quiet time. While
there is no correlation between struggling with quiet time and the
length of your relationship with Jesus, there is a direct
correlation with quiet time and peace in your life. This book is a
tool that can augment your personal time with the Lord or help you
start an "alone time" with God. Our friends and co-workers are not
drawn to Christ because of our righteousness. We as christians also
do not have an exclusion on happiness. However, our God is a God of
love and allowing His love to overflow from your life will have a
positive impact on your personal life and your witness. This book
will challenge you to greater love for the people you come in
contact with every day. Whether you are a new christian or
struggling with your quiet time this book will be beneficial to
you.
