Comprehensiveness in Strategic Decision Making: Toward Clarifying the Construct
Keywords:
management, dynamic environments, decision-makingAbstract
The purpose of this article is to clarify the construct of comprehensiveness in strategic decision making and in doing so, to reconcile the debate on the effectiveness of the decision-making comprehensiveness in dynamic environments. We distinguish between the constructs of comprehensiveness and pace in strategic decision making and argue that comprehensiveness might not necessarily slow down the strategic decision process. Furthermore, we propose that comprehensiveness is a multidimensional construct that can be grouped into two distinct categories—procedural and cognitive—and that each of these two categories might have different effects on performance in dynamic environments
