Corporate Theory - Todd Zenger



Corporate Theory - it is a guide to the selection of strategies




I offer what I call the corporate theory, which reveals how a given company can continue to create value. It is more than a strategy, more than a map to a position—it is a guide to the selection of strategies. The better its theory, the more successful an organization will be at recognizing and composing strategic choices that fuel sustained growth in value. - Todd Zenger, in an Harvard Business Review Article, 2013

We may think of entrepreneurs as scientists. They engage in theory development about possibilities and associated testing.
