William Ocasio defines organizational attention as the “noticing, encoding, interpreting, and focusing of time and effort by organizational decision makers on issues and answers” (p. 189). Attention is a scarce and critical resource that is distributed in the organization to foster the focus on a diverse set of issues and action alternatives. Organizational strategy acts as a guide to the distribution of the attention effort in the organization, coherent interconnection between pockets of shared attention and development of collective capacity to respond coherently to internal and external stimuli. Changes in the organizational strategy often arise as result of changes in the external environment or when the usual problem solving logic is no longer effective.
Readiness for strategic change requires that attention structures and communication channels are flexible and adaptable to the new needs of collective attention. According to (William Ocasio et al., 2018) there’s “a rather limited understanding of communicative practices in various communication channels and particularly the extent to which they reinforce existing patterns of organizational attention or facilitate the formulation and implementation of strategic change” (p. 159). The talk addresses research carried out with the objective of providing empirical evidence for the role that communicative practices play in facilitating the formulation and implementation of strategic change, with a particular focus on communicative practices supported or enabled by information systems.
