  • Approaching the future: Blueprinting and Wayfinding in corporate foresight enactment

    Open Access•Anup Karath Nair, George Burt•ARTICLE•Technological Forecasting and…•2026

Therefore, it is viewed as something that firms either have or do not have rather than as something people do. Consequently, the literature on corporate foresight contains surprisingly little insights about how such corporate foresight is enacted by people within organizations through distinct “fut…

  • Unlocking dynamic capabilities in the Scotch whisky industry, 1945–present

    Open Access•Norman Mackenzie, Andrew Perchard et al.•ARTICLE•Business History•2024•Cited by: 3

    In this article we examine the development of the Scotch whisky industry since 1945 through the lens of dynamic capabilities.

The cultural diversity of students undertaking management development programmes, such as an MBA, presents great opportunities to business school educators to facilitate the development of vital …
