Overview

"The latest volume of the Research Methodology in Strategy and Management series uncovers theoretical developments in management and strategy, highlighting how firms succeed today, as well as offering cutting edge thinking on new and evolving research methods to study organizations. Standing on the Shoulders of Giants: Traditions and Innovations in Research Methodology collates a wide range of perspectives on strategy and management and introduces new approaches to researching organizations.

This culminates in a useful how-to guide which builds on insights about teaching aspiring entrepreneurs with a ""canvas"" and provides researchers with a canvas to design and execute high quality projects.
