Changing conversations based on the Stacey matrix
The Stacey matrix model was proposed by Ralph Stacey. It gives the possibility to distinguish management decisions and deal with complexity and uncertainty in organization platform. The result is brought out by usage of the two dimension Stacey matrix. It allows to compare the level of agreement with the degree of certainty. The decision can fall into the following areas of the matrix for further analysis: Simple, Complicated, Political, Chaotic.
Theory of strategic choice
Ralph Stacey defined management and organization dynamics in frame of the theory of strategic choice. In this view the organization changes over time in a direction chosen by the most powerful individual or small group of managers. The theory of strategic choice displays its theoretical origin in two main pillars; cybernetic system theory and cognitivist psychology. Cybernetic theory is highly focused on control and regulation of a system which helps to guide and return into the state of stabile equilibrium and reach the desired destination. the cognitivist psychology describes the nature of human behavior in this context.
In the aspect and understanding of strategic choice, an important parameter is to consider the cause and effect of uncertainty and conflict.
