Connecting Diversification to Performance: A Sociocognitive Approach
Abstract
This article develops a sociocognitive model of diversification that grounds the role of top managers' belief systems in the cognitive and behavioral attributes of corporate strategy. Its approach addresses several important questions: (a) How do top managers' belief systems reflect the ways in which they interpret their firms' business environments? (b) In what sense can we talk about the shared interpretations of the individuals that manage a diversified portfolio of businesses? (c) How do the characteristics of shared belief systems reflect the ability of the corporate management team to learn? (d) What specific predictions and prescriptions emerge from a sociocognitive theory of diversification?

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
