The sequence of this course is structured along with the seminar format that will expose the students to progressive theoretical and empirical developments on strategy process. This course basically aims to inform students about analysis of strategic decisions facing organisations at the line of business level, however, we will also consider strategy at the corporate level. The course is informed by both economic and behavioral views of strategy. The course will cover traditional strategy topics such as industry analysis and attractiveness of industries, building core competencies and competitive advantage, generic strategies and modern game theory models of competition. A central integrating idea is anticipating the response of other actors in the industry and recognizing that often an organization’s profits depend on the actions of other firms. To cover a broad array of issues in strategy research, the readings are biased towards foundational and survey works, although most sessions include at least one empirical or modeling paper that exemplifies work that is done near the knowledge frontier.
