Problem Solving in the Management of Technology and Innovation (Classic Reprint): Choosing the Uncertainty-Ambiguity Boundary: Choosing the Uncertainty-Ambiguity Boundary (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Rethinking uncertainty and ambiguity in technical problem solving. This book argues that these two concepts are not the same and that choosing where to draw their boundary changes how problems are solved and organized.
This concise work explains why managers must actively set the uncertainty-ambiguity boundary rather than treat them as fixed, exogenous states. It shows how problem framing affects decisions, team roles, and organizational structure during technology and innovation initiatives. The discussion includes practical implications for research and for guiding complex technical projects in dynamic environments.
- How uncertainty and ambiguity influence problem perception and solution strategies.
- Why the boundary is a choice, not a given, and how it shapes organizational responses.
- Different approaches to problem solving under uncertainty vs. ambiguity, including structure and process implications.
- Examples of how boundary choices affect projects, management routines, and research directions in technical innovation.
Ideal for readers interested in how framing a technical problem can determine outcomes and the ways organizations support innovative work.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores how organizations can manage the distinction between uncertainty and ambiguity in technical problem solving. Traditionally, uncertainty has been characterized by a lack of information, while ambiguity has been characterized by a lack of clarity about the problem itself. The author argues that these two concepts are distinct, and that organizations need to be able to differentiate between them in order to effectively manage technical problem solving. The book provides a framework for understanding the uncertainty-ambiguity boundary, and discusses the organizational consequences of choosing different levels of uncertainty and ambiguity. The author also examines the impact of this choice on communication, project structure, and team composition. This book is essential reading for anyone involved in the management of technical innovation, as it provides a new way of thinking about the challenges of problem solving in an uncertain and ambiguous world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
