IS DESIGN A SOLUTION FOR THE SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES' FUTURE?

This article develops the idea put forward by Washington and Ventresca (2004) that institutions can sustain an emergent strategy in a given field. Ordinarily considered as stable elements of that field, these institutions may be subject to change. This theoretical approach is the object of a case study set in the framework of a contest. Organized by the General Council of the Loire and aimed at SME located in its constituency, the contest goal is to encourage innovation through design. By design, one must understand a creation produced by Man for industrial and commercial use. An emergent strategy is defined as new when situated within a defined context and a specific period of time. An exploratory case study has been conducted in order to help understand how this integration works. It takes into account qualitative data such as the RFID patch project led by the DOING Company within the framework of “Design Concept” Contest. Based on the mechanisms formulated by Washington and Ventresca (2004), this analysis has been elaborated to illustrate how an emergent strategy can be successfully incorporated. Several empirical questions subsequently follow: “What are the characteristics that allow business managers settled in the Loire district to adopt a design strategy? Which fields of activity in the Loire area are the most inclined to be compatible with the design strategy? Which business projects are the most eligible for partnership with designers? How will the General Council choose the subjects for the contest in order to initiate change within institutions?

Master\u27s Project: Examining Equity and Emergence: Personal Inquiry and Practice

When I awakened to the reality of my White privilege I began a transformative learning journey which implicates my personal life, professional work, and leadership practice. This project deepened and integrated my understanding of Whiteness, power, privilege, and systemic oppression. By learning the ways I perpetuate white supremacy, I create personal agency for changing such patterns, embodying leadership which builds a more equitable and justice-centered future. This personal inquiry utilized emergent strategy, relationship-building, and critical reflection to generate deep and integrated learning

Interactive Control System, Intended Strategy, Implemented Strategy Dan Emergent Strategy

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between management control system (MCS) and strategy formation processes, namely: intended strategy, emergent strategy and impelemented strategy. The focus of MCS in this study was interactive control system. The study was based on Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) as its multivariate analyses instrument. The samples were upper middle managers of manufacturing company in Banten Province, DKI Jakarta Province and West Java Province. AMOS Software 16 program is used as an additional instrument to resolve the problem in SEM modeling. The study found that interactive control system brought a positive and significant influence on Intended strategy; interactive control system brought a positive and significant influence on implemented strategy; interactive control system brought a positive and significant influence on emergent strategy. The limitation of this study is that our empirical model only used one way relationship between the process of strategy formation and interactive control system

Evaluasi Emergent Strategy Bisnis PLTS Atap PT X sehubungan dengan Ketidakpastian Strategis Permintaan Pasar

PT X is one of the developers of rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) power plants in the commercial and industrial sectors in Indonesia. Over time, there has been a strategic uncertainty of market demand since 2022, mainly affected by the strong bargaining position of Wilayah Usaha's state-owned enterprise (Wilus SOE). Wilus SOE plays a significant role, is given priority in the provision of electricity for the public interest as stipulated in the regulation, and also has a dominant share (95 percent in 2020), making it a de facto monopoly in the electricity business in Indonesia. Wilus SOE has legitimacy as a power distributor and therefore has the authority to approve the capacity of rooftop solar PV power plants. Referring to this situation, this research aims to identify the intended strategy of PT X and the emergent strategy in dealing with the strategic uncertainty of market demand. PESTEL analysis (political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental, legal) and five-forces framework (competitive rivalry, new entrants, substitute products, suppliers, customers), as well as emergent strategy evaluation, were used as the framework of this research. To strengthen the analysis results, in-depth interviews were also conducted with the management team of PT X. Based on the series of analyses, it can be concluded that PT X's business is strongly influenced by legal factors while the competitive rivalry and customers' factor have very strong forces. On the other hand, PT X has implemented an emergent strategy well in dealing with the strategic uncertainty of market demand, as an effort to maintain the company's profitability. This research is expected to provide benefits for PT X and other rooftop solar PV power plant developers to understand the emergent strategy in order to remain competitive in its business implementation

STRATEGY AND MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM IN A MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY IN SELECTED CITIES IN INDONESIA

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between strategy formation process and strategy implementation process with the usage of MCS. The focus of strategy formation process used in this study is intended strategy, emergent strategy, and implemented strategy. The focus of MCS used in this study, is interactive control system and diagnostic control system. This study uses structural equation modelling as multivariate analyses tool. AMOS software 16 program is used as the aid tool to solve the problem in SEM application. Respondents in this study are 287 upper managers who work in manufacturing industry with prospector typology strategy. The results from this study are: intended strategy positively and significantly influences the interactive control system; intended strategy positively and significantly influences the diagnostic control system; emergent strategy positively and significantly influences the interactive control system; and emergent strategy provides no influence on diagnostic control system; implemented strategy positively and significantly influences the interactive control system; implemented strategy positively and significantly influences the diagnostic control system. The strength of pressure that is used in each control system that will be able to provide optimal result has not known yet. The result of this study recommends  that firms should have used many kinds of control usage which are suited with  their condition.Keywords: intended, emergent, implemented, strategy, control system, manufactur

Prospects on Innovating Organizations

We aim to give the main rationale to create products and/or services in a state-of-mind associating every stakeholder in the frame of a reactive and networked organization. This implies a value-chain from basic research to users needs, the starting point being often fuzzy. The consequences upon the strategy of the firm's offer is analyzed as well from a quantitative point of view (accounting) than a qualitative one. Various forms of organizations are reviewed or suggested, including the kind of corresponding culture, the necessary data-bases and the importance of collaboration.reactive organization; collaborative work; teams; creativity: holistic attitude; fuzzy front-end; global supply; emergent strategy; collective intelligence; virtual enterprise; decision making; rank; peers
