Abstract:

Previous research has generated a substantial body of knowledge regarding the exploration and exploitation of opportunities, two of the main manifest activities of entrepreneurship. This thesis does not primarily examine any of these activities; instead it investigates an important question regarding what happens between them. It seeks to answer why some of the identified opportunities are selected for exploitation. It does so by building on, and contributing to, a research stream that struggles with the link between the entrepreneurial activity of firms and theory about strategy. One of the m

Abstract:

Corporate strategy is a foundation for companies operations, processes and the ways in which its various businesses work together to achieve particular goals. Scholars and managers recognize different levels of strategy for organizations. One of the differentiations is based on governance structure of the organization, and divides corporate strategy on two levels: corporate strategy and business-unit strategy. In many cases, some might think that business and corporate dimensions are the same. However, when divided into strategies, there is a difference. This especially relates to

Abstract:

Corporate Social Responsibilty has increased in importance over these decades. Due to several drivers it is important for companies to initiate and communicate these CSR initiatives, in order to benefit from them. This increased demand on responsibility from companies creates an urgency for the company to satisfy this need. This has led to the concept of “Greenwashing” which is a miscommunication of CSR values. This opposes the integration of CSR into the corporate strategy which is a more effective method of initiating CSR. This study will examine CSR initiatives alignment with corporate stra

The UK Companies Act 2006 has made it a legal requirement for companies, since October 2013, to disclose their 'Strategy' and 'Business Model' as part of their annual report. The Act, however, does not define what is meant by the two terms. This means that the content of the disclosure remains at the discretion of managers. Prior to this, the UK 2010 Corporate Governance Code required companies to disclose their Strategy and Business Model. The Code, however, is based on a 'comply or explain' approach.
