Responsabilité stratégique des dirigeants. Entre hasard, choix et inévitabilité

Abstract: We propose a theory to manage the relation between strategic choice, chance and inevitability. To do so, we locate arguments in intellectual history and complexity science that have a clear bearing on this relation, and suggest that strategic choice, chance and inevitability are reciprocally implicated. The present article thus pursues a level of granularity and precision on the mechanism by which choice, chance and determinism interact beyond that presently available. At a more practical level, it suggests that managers clearly are not the sole, or necessarily primary, authors of the strategies realized by their organizations.
