Abstract

The present research aims at pointing out epistemological orientations about how the investigations in the area of management should be addressed, and the methodological consequences of this change of perception, aiming to enable the emergence of a reflective theoretical space capable of responding to the complexity of contemporary scenarios. In order to do so, a theoretical research was developed, and its results pointed out that, in order to break with the fragmentary logic that pervades the very structure of knowledge understanding in the area of management, it is necessary that the multi-method approaches become part of researches in a daily basis in the area of strategy, structured to encompass the theoretical, empirical, inductive and deductive stages in order to allow a complete understanding of the phenomena related to the strategic process..
