| Tiivistelmä: | There is the need for managers (here as: mgrs.) to make sense of emerging strategic issues possibly significantly impacting their businesses. While models of sensemaking process suggest that information (here as: info.) gathering (as: g.) affects interpretations, researchers have argued that our understanding of the role of info. in changing interpretations is underdeveloped. This paper investigates the role of the time mgrs. spend searching for info. and the diversity of the info. they find in changing mgrs.' perceptions (as: prcps). The methodology involves a longitudinal research design. It is found that time spent searching for info. leads to changes towards seeing the issue as more of a threat, while the diversity of info. found leads to changes towards seeing it as less of a threat. There is found no effect of info. g. on opportunity prcps. |
