Resumo

Objetivo: Em meio a períodos conturbados, a visão da estratégia como uma prática emergente tem sido vista como uma possibilidade de lidar com a incerteza a partir da abertura, convergindo para a teoria da resiliência organizacional. Assim, este ensaio teórico se norteia a partir da questão de pesquisa: “Como o fenômeno de open strategizing se relaciona com a resiliência organizacional, em situações de incerteza ambiental?”

Metodologia/Abordagem: Para desenvolver este ensaio, seguimos dois passos que possibilitaram a busca pela resposta (teórica) à questão (de pesquisa) definida: (I) foram selecionados estudos sobre a temática proposta em bases de dados internacionais; e (II) foram elaborados os construtos (definições) sobre open strategizing, resiliência organizacional e incerteza ambiental.

Originalidade/Relevância: Nossa intenção foi discutir teoricamente a relação entre a open strategizing e resiliência organizacional, de modo a considerar a incerteza ambiental, aproximando os conceitos por meio da literatura, com estudos que têm utilizado o ensaio teórico como forma de proporcionar avanço do conhecimento pela discussão e reflexão sobre temas em desenvolvimento.

Principais resultados: Ao relacionarmos a open strategizing com a resiliência organizacional, entendemos que (I) organizações com preparação reativa superam a incerteza por meio da inclusão e da flexibilidade; (II) organizações em alto risco ou baseadas no processo não convergem para o fenômeno de abertura da estratégia; (III) organizações focadas na resiliência, superam a incerteza por meio de aprendizados passados, transparência de informações e da inclusão de atores na formação da estratégia.

Contribuições teórico-metodológicas: Apresentamos reflexões sobre o relacionamento entre a open strategizing e a resiliência organizacional frente à incerteza ambiental, possibilitando o avanço de estudos na perspectiva de strategizing.
