| Abstract: | Time is one of the more salient constraints on managerial behavior. Earlier work by Radner (1976) proposed models based on notions of the thermostat or "putting out fires" to guide managerial time and effort allocation among tasks. In this study these ideas are linked to the issue of the level of complexity of the tasks to be attended to while alluding to the sequential versus parallel modes of processing. |
