Decision making, and strategic decision making have been a focal and popular area of management literature, and numerous scholars have conducted thorough research to explain the relationships between each antecedent, characteristic, or variable and the outcomes of the strategic decision process. In addition, recent studies have looked at decision making from an upper echelons" perspective and tried to investigate how the top management teams, boards of directors, and CEOs in organizations take such strategic decisions. Scholars have also looked at how these executives seek and utilize essential information that can be acquired either through internal or external resources, which is referred to as advice seeking behavior. The term "advice seeking behavior" has been recently attracting a lot of attention in the literature; however, the amount and depth of these studies have been rather limited and very specific. Therefore, this research aims to provide an integrated and explanatory approach to explain how the upper echelons in organizations, especially CEOs, take strategic decisions and how they seek advice during this process. In addition, the research also aims to combine the literature on strategic decision-making and the upper echelons by integrating leadership style literature to understand how each style affects advice seeking behavior. Finally, the research investigates how these behaviors affect strategic decision outcomes in terms of speed and quality.
