Abstract

This study aims to find the strategic choice approaches in enterprises that must have a high knowledge and competence, and find the various controls and dimensions that define various strategic choices in these enterprises as knowledge-based organizations. To reach this aim, we have selected the electronic industries in Algeria as a case study, based on the data of 120 questionnaires distributed to a group of managers, especially to a sample of senior leaders of the enterprises of this strategic sector. According to the hypothetical-deductive approach we have proposed and tested a theoretical model (Linking strategic choice approaches and characteristics of knowledge-based organizations) in reality expressed with some organizations’ managers’ views using Partial least squares of Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The study concluded that the characteristics of knowledge-based organizations have a significant impact on the strategic choice of these enterprises, with a path coefficient heading towards 1:0.607, this emphasizes the need to invest these characteristics to develop an effective strategic choices in a highly competitive environment.
