This panel brings together leading scholars developing an emphasis on strategy communications. Communicating strategy matters a great deal and does not come naturally. In an era of increasing voluntary corporate disclosures and public access to these disclosures through electronic media, for organizations, getting the message across in a succinct and credible manner is a skill that CEOs and strategy practitioners must master. The panel will cover many facets of research on strategy communications as talk and text, in theory and practice, as framing contests or as forms of impression management for internal and external stakeholders – including, but not limited to CEOs and analysts.
