Abstract | This paper addresses the gap between mental model theory and strategic thinking theory. It presents a framework of core elements of strategic thinking to explore the link between these elements and mental models. The paper proposes that mental models could have a shaping effect on strategic thinking. It suggests that individual mental models can be developed and strategic thinking can be enhanced through organisational communication and organisational learning principles. |
