Controlled Cognitive Processes as Determinants of Managers' Decisiveness - in the Neuroeconomics Context

Abstrakty

W artykule wyjaśniono, czym jest decyzyjność menedżera, oraz zdefiniowano procesy poznawcze kontrolowane i wskazano ich rolę w poznaniu wyższego rzędu, a więc w każdym złożonym działaniu człowieka (np. w podejmowaniu decyzji). Ponadto zaprezentowano wyznaczniki decyzyjności menedżera - w zakresie procesów poznawczych kontrolowanych (funkcji wykonawczych) takich jak: pamięć operacyjna, metapoznanie, hamowanie poznawcze, stabilność emocjonalna, płynność poznawcza i samoregulacja. Opracowanie nie obejmuje opisu procesów afektywnych. Szczególnie istotny w turbulentnym otoczeniu jest wzrost zdolności menedżerów do szybkiego i trafnego podejmowania złożonych decyzji i reagowania na zmiany. Zdolność ta jest kluczowa na najwyższym szczeblu zarządzania organizacją. Dlatego w artykule przedstawiono wpływ uwarunkowań kognitywnych menedżera na jego decyzyjność. Dokonano tego na podstawie wyników badań w zakresie nowej, dynamicznie rozwijającej się dyscypliny naukowej, jaką jest neuroekonomia. Przeprowadzone rozważania umożliwiły wyciągniecie wniosków, że do wyznaczników decyzyjności menedżera można zaliczyć następujące procesy poznawcze kontrolowane (funkcje wykonawcze): duża pojemność pamięci operacyjnej, rozwinięta zdolność metapoznania, sprawne hamowanie poznawcze, stabilność emocjonalna, duża płynność poznawcza i samoregulacja. Dysfunkcje i deficyty w zakresie wymienionych procesów poznawczych kontrolowanych menedżera skutkują zmniejszeniem jego umiejętności decyzyjnych, a w skrajnych przypadkach powodują, że jest on niedecyzyjny. Istnieją możliwości redukowania negatywnych skutków indywidualnych ograniczeń poznawczych przez decydentów, są one jednak ograniczone. Dlatego tak istotny jest dobór decyzyjnych menedżerów na kluczowe stanowiska w organizacji. (abstrakt oryginalny)

In the paper the notion of managers' decisiveness was explained, and also there were defined controlled cognitive processes and indicated their role in higher rank cognitive, and therefore, in any complex human activity (e.g. decision making). Moreover, determinants of managers' decisiveness were presented - in the range of controlled cognitive processes (executive functions) such as: working memory, meta- cognition, cognitive inhibition, emotional stability, cognitive flexibility and self-regulation. The paper does not include the description of affective processes. Increase of managers' abilities to fast and right making complex decisions and reacting to changes are particularly important in turbulent environment. Therefore, the impact of cognitive determinants of manager on his decisiveness were presented in this paper. That was done based on the results of research in new and dynamic discipline, that is neuroeconomics. Based on the conducted considerations it was possible to draw conclusions that determinants of managers' decisiveness include the following controlled cognitive processes (executive functions): a large working memory capacity, expanded the ability to metacognition, efficient cognitive inhibition, emotional stability, high cognitive flexibility. Dysfunctions and deficits in a range of referred controlled cognitive processes of manager cause a decrease of decision-making skills, and in extreme cases, cause that indecisiveness. There are opportunities reducing the negative effects of individual cognitive limitations of decision-makers, but they are limited. Therefore, it is extremely important to choose the decisive managers for key positions in the organization. (original abstract)
