本文讨论了最近战略研究向基于实践的理论化的转变。本文基于 51 次会议观察结果的数据集，研究了战略会议如何参与稳定现有战略方向或提出不断产生战略方向变化的变化。战略会议的十一个重要的结构特征被确定并审查了它们稳定或破坏现有战略方向的潜力。基于会议结构的分类，我们解释了三种典型的进化路径，通过这些路径，变化出现、维持和发展、被选择或取消选择。研究结果有四个主要贡献。首先，他们通过解释会议实践如何与相应的战略成果相关联，为有关战略实践的文献做出了贡献。其次，他们通过展示会议在塑造稳定和变革方面的作用，为有关组织生成的文献做出了贡献。第三，他们扩展并阐述了会议作为战略事件的概念。第四，他们为垃圾箱战略制定模型的文献做出了贡献。
This article addresses the recent turn in strategy research to practice-based theorizing. Based on a data set of 51 meeting observations, the article examines how strategy meetings are involved in either stabilizing existing strategic orientations or proposing variations that cumulatively generate change in strategic orientations. Eleven significant structuring characteristics of strategy meetings are identified and examined with regard to their potential for stabilizing or destabilizing existing strategic orientations. Based on a taxonomy of meeting structures, we explain three typical evolutionary paths through which variations emerge, are maintained and developed, and are selected or de-selected. The findings make four main contributions. First, they contribute to the literature on strategy-as-practice by explaining how the practice of meetings is related to consequential strategic outcomes. Second, they contribute to the literature on organizational becoming by demonstrating the role of meetings in shaping stability and change. Third, they extend and elaborate the concept of meetings as strategic episodes. Fourth, they contribute to the literature on garbage can models of strategy-making.
