Forbes (blog) - Mintzberg on Management

Published: 8 April 2011

“There are two people, and only two,” writes Professor Karl Moore professor at the Desautels Faculty, 69Ƶ in Montreal in Forbes, “whose ideas must be taught to every MBA in the world: Michael Porter and Henry Mintzberg… You can contrast their two views as Porter’s taking a more deliberate strategy approach while Mintzberg’s emphasize emergent strategy…

"Porter’s ideas are still relevant.. But they are getting a bit long in the tooth for today’s different world. Henry’s emergent strategy ideas simply seem to be more relevant to the world we live in today.”

In the Special Issue of the journal, Strategy & Leadership, on Outracing Change: Learning to Foresee, Adapt, Re-Invent and Innovate Faster (2011, Vol 39, No. 2), Mintzberg speaks with S&L founder Robert Allio about management, leadership, innovation and emergent strategy.
