This book investigates the phenomenon of strategic myopia, which
refers to important cognitive distortions that managers
systematically display. It captures narrow views and preferences,
which are likely to hurt firms' long-term prospects. Instead of
accusing managers of imperfections, opportunism, or blindness, this
book explains how strategic myopia stems from individual
dispositions, how it is shaped by team contingencies, and
encouraged by organizations' design. The reader will learn how a
metaphor introduced to explain business failure evolved over
decades to become a concept useful in understanding intertemporal
choices, technology substitution, competitive advantage erosion,
competitive blindspots, and missed opportunities. In addition to
explaining the mechanisms that encourage myopic behaviors, readers
are offered a set of effective ways to address strategic myopia. A
key benefit of this work is that the structure of the book allows
the use of chapters separately. The core message is that
eliminating strategic myopia is hardly possible, and may actually
hurt the firms' short-term efficiency. However, organizations may
develop capabilities, and implement designs that favor balancing
the short-term benefits of myopia and alleviate its long-term
drawbacks. This book will be of interest to scholars, researchers,
advanced students and experienced managers in the fields of
strategic management and organizational behavior.
