Abstract
Organizations are continuously experimenting with different means to include a broader group of stakeholders in open strategizing, which includes both internal and external stakeholders. Open strategizing,conceptualized as the influence on decision makers through direct ties from their social network, allows for more strategic information becoming available for decision making, and more stakeholders can engage in strategizing processes. Through a survey among 293 decision makers (49% managers, 51% entrepreneurs), we aim to show the influence of type of decision maker and cognitive motivation on the range of actors that affect strategic decisions. We test these effects and find that the results show marked differences exist between managers and entrepreneurs regarding which part of their social network and how cognitive motivation are influential in strategic decision-making
