Item type:Publication, Towards a construct of entrepreneurial strategising: the case of private equityThe obvious relevance of entrepreneurship in value creation has set off an intense debate in academia over how strategic management and entrepreneurship relate to each other culminating in the concept of 'strategic entrepreneurship'. As a result, the term 'strategic entrepreneurship', albeit widely used and defined, remains a theoretical concept indicating little more than a potential relationship between the two fields. Such debate, therefore, although fruitful for and typical of dynamic research fields in the process of transformation, may not be as useful for theoretical advancement as practice–informed approaches to theoretical model construction. We thus adopt such an approach by choosing as a starting point a setting in which strategic and entrepreneurial forces meet: the management of private equity funded firms. At the heart of our contribution lies the development of a new theoretical construct, entrepreneurial strategising, which is embedded in the relevant streams of both the strategy and entrepreneurship literature and, to a lesser extent, of behaviourist economics and the statistical notion of uncertainty. Specifically, entrepreneurial strategising refers to the dynamic capability of an organisation to employ discrete strategic and entrepreneurial mindsets; that is, mental models used by decision–takers situationally and, in some instances, simultaneously.

Item type:Publication, Quo Vadis Russian Economy?In early 2017, the Russian economy is still not growing. The economic downturn started in 2014 and was subsequently deepened by sanctions, counter-sanctions and geopolitical tensions between Russia and the Western world. The Ministry for Economic Development of Russia released an updated economic forecast, which assumes that the period of zero or barely positive growth might last at least until 2019. The key structural issue is that Russia’s financial system may not be able to allocate adequate capital resources to the many promising projects that would otherwise emerge in the vast Russian market bordering the EU and China. Striving to achieve a growth rate of 4%, the President’s Economic Council is in search of policy proposals aimed at developing a programme that would lead Russia out of the recession. Two groups led by the country’s top economists emerged. They initiated a debate offering distinct action plans and both believed that their proposals would be heard by the President, maybe via the offices of the Economic Council itself. One group is the Centre for Strategic Research headed by Alexey Kudrin, the former Russian Minister of Finance. The other is the so-called Stolypin Club, a group of prominent economists and former governmental officials. The future of Russia’s economy hinges on whose arguments will win the day.
