Abstract

Strategic management scholars recognize the importance of stakeholder support for implementation. While they have assessed different stakeholder groups, research examining temporal and contextual aspects lags; masking contingent effects and limiting tailored guidance for practitioners. This study explores stakeholder management in American local governments by isolating the impact of support from various stakeholder groups upon four types of strategic initiatives during each implementation phase. The findings suggest that no particular configuration of stakeholders is consistently most vital to strategic implementation; instead differing coalitions are most effective in a given implementation phase and/or situational context – endorsing a contingent perspective of stakeholder management.
