Chanda, Sasanka Sekhar, CEO Cognition in Strategy Research (March 27, 2015). Available for download at SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2586215

“Cognitive considerations arising from the functions of the Chief Executive Officer appear to have been ignored in strategy research. Taking a cue from Freeman’s stakeholder theory, I discuss the constituencies addressed by the CEO in performing his/her job function. I present a set of propositions based on extant research. I endeavor to commence a conversation that ultimately shapes the lines of inquiry regarding the contribution of managerial cognition to strategy.”
