Granqvist, Nina; Kuismin, Ari

Nina Granqvist and Ari Kuismin focus on temporality in strategy as practice research. They offer an overview of prior research on time-related topics and then move on to develop an understanding of the ways in which strategy as practice scholars can approach temporality. This can involve process approaches that concentrate on temporally situated strategic activity over time, practice-based approaches that focus on time as a key element in the way strategy is worked on, and narrative approaches that deal with how pasts and futures are discursively constructed. They conclude with an agenda for future research on the role of temporality in strategizing.
