Abstract

This chapter presents the implications of absorptive capacity in strategic decision-making processes. It refers to the theoretical foundation on the two concepts based on seminal text. To present a theoretical relationship about these two concepts the methodology involved a search in the Web of Science from 1990 to 2024 with “strategic decision-making” filter and “absorptive capacity” as topic. The search brought as answer 24 documents. The analysis was made by reading these 24 documents. After the exclusion of 14 of them for not meeting the criterion, allowed to present the fundamentals of each concept ending with a proposal of relationship between them. The theoretical and managerial implications arising from the interrelationship between the two concepts, the limitations and an agenda for future studies are presented.
