Abstract

This study aimed to build a model describing the relationships among local resources management strategy, community empowerment and poverty alleviation. This is a conceptual paper describing a key role of local resources to improve the skill of local community which lead to reduce poverty. Well managed local resources utilizing technology might increase value added and improve the income of society. It is argued that imperfectly imitable and non-substitutable local resources contribute to society economy improvement, therefore it will have a greater impact on poverty reduction. Theoretical contribution of this study is to enlarge body of knowledge in the field of strategic management. Meanwhile, managerial implications of this study can be applied by small medium enterprises (SME) and stakeholders to manage local resources and solve poverty problems.
