O papel do nível médio de administração é essencial quando se trata de uma gestão com processo integrador e emergente de formação da estratégia. Salientamos a importância do papel deste nível intermediário que deve conectar de forma ajustada o nível micro e macro-organizacional, oferecendo uma contribuição importante quando se examina a perspectiva da estratégia-como-prática e o processo integrador de formação da estratégia. O principal objetivo desta pesquisa é analisar a relação entre o processo integrador de formação da estratégia e os papéis do middle manager sob a perspectiva da estratégia-como-prática. Adotamos uma metodologia qualitativa por meio do estudo de caso em uma Universidade espanhola. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas em profundidade, análise de documentos e observação direta. Encontramos que a Universidade desenvolve um processo integrador de formação da estratégia e confere ao nível intermediário um importante papel que é estendido a toda a organização.
