Reality of Decision making

Decision making can be regarded as the mental processes (cognitive process) resulting in the selection of a course of action among several alternative scenarios. Every decision making process produces a final choice. The output can be an action or an opinion of choice.

Analyze performance, what should the results be against what they actually are:

-          Problems are merely deviations from performance standards

-          Problem must be precisely identified and described

-          Problems are caused by some change from a distinctive feature

Something can always be used to distinguish between what has and hasn't been effected by a cause. Causes to problems can be deducted from relevant changes found in analyzing the problem. Most likely cause to a problem is the one that exactly explains all the facts

3. Decision Making

-          Objectives must first be established

-          Objectives must be classified and placed in order of importance

-          Alternative actions must be developed

-          The alternative must be evaluated against all the objectives

-          The alternative that is able to achieve all the objectives is the tentative decision

-          The tentative decision is evaluated for more possible consequences

The decisive actions are taken, and additional actions are taken to prevent any adverse consequences from becoming problems and starting both systems (problem analysis and decision making) all over again

There are steps that are generally followed that result in a decision model that can be used to determine an optimal production plan. In a situation featuring conflict, role-playing is helpful for predicting decisions to be made by involved parties.
