basic (pls see the context)

Bus/Financial - Management
English term or phrase: basic (pls see the context)
First, industry insiders (managers who have five or more years’ experience in the new organization’s industry) take hold much more quickly than do outsiders. Insiders begin with a larger wave of action and their actions tend to be more basic.

Whatever the author means by @basic@? Deeper? Simpler? Larger in scope?

PS PLEASE do not repost chunks of dictionary articles, violators will be shot, survivors shot again 8)
TIA
