Summary
This chapter uses new institutional theory to shed light on the recent trend toward openness and inclusiveness in strategy making. New institutional theory depicts an extraordinary vivid strand in management and organizational research. This vitality is foremost reflected in the large amount of different theoretical substrands that populate new institutional theory (for an overview, see Greenwood et al., 2017). While some of these substrands such as institutional work or institutional entrepreneurship tend to highlight micro-processes, we, in this chapter, focus on Open Strategy as a world societal phenomenon. Therefore, we draw on world society theory (Meyer, 2010) as this stream in new institutional theory sheds light on macro-processes.
