Abstract: | This study examines the method for evaluating the strategies of each company whose technology is positioned between the `fluid phase' and `transitional phase' of the Abernathy-Utterback Model, and in particular, discusses the efforts of core human resources who play a key role in the technological strategies, as well as how they are utilized. From this examination, two hypotheses are proposed. i) Interlocking the efforts of multi-performers with company-wide technological strategies may increase the efficiency of implementation. ii) By allowing multi-performers to explore diverse technological directions without interlocking their efforts with company-wide technological strategies, it is possible to establish a foundation for renewed technological strategies.
