Elena Krause-Söhner explores how the dynamics of organizational
ambidexterity can be managed in complex organizations. This is a
relevant question as today's organizations and the individuals within
them face the challenge of focusing on short term improvements while
simultaneously targeting long-term innovation in a dynamic environment.
Drawing on a practice-based perspective and the view of organizations as
socially constructed and constantly changing entities, organizational
enacting and constructing change activities are investigated based on
profound conceptual and empirical base in an industry and service
context. This book derives implications for both the theoretical
discourse and for practitioners.
