Strategic Decision Making in a Management Game: An Experimental Study of Objectives Setting and Consistency in Complex Decision Making (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Strategic Decision Making in a Management Game: An Experimental Study of Objectives Setting and Consistency in Complex Decision Making
This paper presents an experimental study of the objective formulation and policy aspects of strategic decision making using business gaming as a research vehicle. The research issues of interest here are to investigate how differences in objective settings might affect decision making and performance results, and to obtain some empirical data about how performance results might be related to consistency in the pursuance of established objectives. Given the current lack of adequate definitions in research on policy and planning, and the difficulty of attempting to evaluate process variables as well as measuring outcomes in complex organizational decision making, the essential aim of this paper is to clarify several central concepts and to present results that can be replicable and extensible.
