Abstract
Strategic
renewal
is
accomplished
in
large
and
small
ways.
This
paper
proposes
a
four
phase
characterization
of
how
organizations
move
between
state
sustaining
renewal
and
the
more
radical
reconceptualizations
that
significantly
alter
organization
activity.
The
argument
juxtaposes
inertia
(or
commitment
to
current
strategy)
and
stress,
the
dissatisfactions
that
signal
the
need
for
renewal.
To
explore
the
details
of
this
interaction,
and
its
implications
for
the
evolution
of
strategy
over
time,
a
formal
model
is
developed.
Quite
plausible
organization
paths
of
renewal
are
simulated
via
the
model
which
help
illustrate
our
main
theoretic
arguments
