In this course we will investigate the intersection between 'traditional' strategic management and entrepreneurship. Strategic management is usually long time oriented and seeks to create long term competitive advantages through the creation of sustainable positions within a particular industry or through the acquisition of valuable resources. Entrepreneurship, on the other hand, focusses on the exploitation of opportunities . Strategic Entrepreneurship seeks use the element of adaptation and opportunity exploitation as a strategic tool. Special attention will be paid to how managers can implement strategic entrepreneurship in their organization by analyzing complex business cases.
