Abstract: In Strategy as Practice, process research methods have been integral to both data collection, analysis, and subsequent theorizing. To explore this interconnectedness, we introduce three perspectives on process research and discuss them in relation to the Strategy as Practice perspective. We further present three examples to demonstrate how process methods provide a richer understanding of how strategic practices are embedded in ongoing, temporally evolving trajectories of activity. Finally, we suggest future directions for process research in Strategy as Practice.
