Publisher Description: Dragan Djuric looks at strategy tools from a process-ontological worldview as proposed by the Process Organization Studies discourse. Building on Wittgenstein's later philosophy he understands science and management as language games thereby developing a view of strategy tools as objects with both an ontological and a symbolic function. This perspective is contrasted with the traditional understanding of strategy tools as 'technologies of rationality' as well as with the practice-based view of strategy tools as 'boundary objects'. |
