Definition Causal Ambiguity. Description.
Causal Ambiguity is the situation where it is hard or even impossible to relate the consequences or effects of a phenomenon to its initial states or causes. This phenomenon is very common in strategy where it is often impossible to determine whether the success of a company is due to solid strategic thinking or due to sheer luck.
The same applies to leadership: are the actions, charisma or vision of the CEO the reason for the success of his corporation, or was he just at the right place at the right moment?
