Abstract
This research aims at investigating how managerial cognition and data-driven decision-making interact in the context of traditional firms characterized by low data-technology awareness, and whether there occur specific cognition and technology traps related to the proof-of-concept phase. Using an ethnographic approach and exploring the case of a traditional transport authority in the North of the UK, we propose a conceptual framework highlighting the distinct effect of managerial cognition and data, and introducing several conceptual components characterizing what we called cognition and technology traps zones. Moreover, a data-technology effectiveness perception curve was exposed. In so doing, our study sheds light on a better understanding of the mechanism underlying the interaction between managerial cognition and data, within the PoC phase. Managerial implications are being presented and further discussed.File | Size | Format | |
