|  | | People tend to start businesses for the wrong reasons | | People undertaking strategic analysis or some type of strategic planning to develop ideas and strategies for a new potential business could not be further from the truth. This is part of the textbook fantasy that business schools have taught us to believe. A person?s psychological state will directly influence perception of people, objects and events. This can potentially lead to perceptive distortion, especially if the person has any psychotic tendencies. Therefore any construed reality, decisions made, strategies crafted, resulting actions and consequential behavior would be based upon biased perceptions. Thus everything that develops within a firm including culture, management style, interpersonal relationships, rules and procedures, strategy, symbols and behavior will have some unconscious basis1. Perception and thinking processes that identify opportunities and shape subsequent actions have their origins both in the psych and the external world. Identifying an opportunity and exploiting it may have as more to do with inner needs i.e., recognition, love and affection, power and control, self esteem, or grandeur, etc., as with any rational thought processes. | | | Autor | | Prof. Dr. Murray Hunter | | | | Artikel | | Fachbereich | | 2012 | | Wirtschaftspsychologie |
