Resumo

O objetivo deste artigo é mostrar a aplicabilidade da metodologia experimental na pesquisa de estratégia empresarial. Para este fim delimita-se a metodologia experimental, destacam-se suas qualidades e limitações e revisa-se seu uso no campo da estratégia. A metodologia usada é a revisão de literatura da caracterização da metodologia experimental e seu uso no campo da estratégia. Este artigo reflete a utilidade da experimentação como metodologia de pesquisa, enfatiza sua complementariedade com outras metodologias e ilustra sua variedade de aplicações em diferentes tópicos. Além disso, destaca-se seu potencial de aplicação nos tópicos de pesquisa mais recentes no campo da estratégia.
