Defining Strategic Problems: Subjective Criteria of Executives
调查了高管对战略问题形成过程的主观标准，识别出清晰性、政治性和复杂性三个标准，并发现清晰的过程需要综合考虑多种观点并形成综合方案。
Top executives were surveyed to determine their subjective criteria regarding the process of strategic problem formulation. Three criteria (clarity, politicality and complexity) were identified and used to determine which activities in the SPF process contributed to explaining the criteria. It was found that a clear process was perceived to be one in which several views were considered but where a synthesis was developed.
