| Abstract: | The dynamic process of globalizing an organization's busi- ness activities is marked with uncertainty and high risk due to, in part, the global organizational ignorance of manage- ment. In this paper, the authors examine the nature and forms of global organizational ignorance as well as the en- vironmental factors contributing to its emergence. Drawing on the body of theoretical developments and empirical fin- dings the authors identify specific managerial errors and contexts associated with the phenomena of probabilistic and pluralistic ignorance. The authors summarize a means of classifying the causes of ignorance into a practical frame- work in an effort to facilitate managerial attention to the issue of global organizational ignorance. |
