ABSTRACT
So what does our understanding of the history of strategy have to say about learning to think strategically? Interdisciplinary thinking (i.e., management, science, mathematics, education, anthropology, philosophy, and humanities) offers a degree of convergence on the current direction of learning and strategy. Although learning has intermittently been implied in strategy literature, the management development literature increasingly echoes this convergence as well. 38 At present, the pendulum appears to be moving toward a more integrated and inclusive approach to strategy, as an effective counterpoint to the highly analytic, rational, linear approach that has dominated the fi eld since the modern industrial era of the early 1900s.
