title = "The effect of organizational learning from performance feedback on team attention focus",
abstract = "In this chapter, we present a theory on how organizational performance feedback influences individual decision-maker cognitions and thereby changes a team{\textquoteright}s attention focus in terms of strategy. We argue that when performance compares unfavorably to aspiration levels, decision-makers reconsider current strategies in favor of unfamiliar, uncertain ones and become more risk tolerant. Furthermore, as decision-makers devote additional cognitive resources to do so, changes in attention focus in a decision-making team will be observed. Using data from a business simulation and repeated questionnaires, we capture the teams{\textquoteright} attention focus and the organizational performance feedback evaluation process of the individuals and teams.",
