Abstract

OBJECTIVE: This paper addresses the issue of Corporate Strategy, aiming to answer four research questions: “what is Strategy about?”, “who shapes the Strategy?”, “what is new about Strategic Management?” and “what is wrong with Strategic Management?”

METHOD: To do so, the study was based on a systematic exploratory research and bibliographic review.  For each question, a specific set of authors were selected, mainly based on books and papers published in relevant academic journals.

RESULTS: A set of theoretical propositions is presented at the end of each analysis, in an attempt to summarize the main findings of this literature review.

FINDINGS: Overall, the paper shows that corporate strategy is a complex and intricate issue, in constant evolution but, at the same time, with many problems still to be solved.
