If you agree with our premise here, then you'll also agree that decision-making is something too important to be left to chance, gut feel or wish. After all, the fact is that we all make decisions. Many of these decisions will be good ones that deliver positive outcomes. Other decisions will be bad and a few, perhaps, an unmitigated disaster. That's why it's tempting to engage external experts to make decisions on your behalf, but they seldom understand your business, so commitment to execute doesn't follow.

 

What's needed is a suite of "How To" decision-making processes that help you leverage your experience and domain expertise to maximize the percentage of good decisions made. This is especially true for critical decisions where the best option is not obvious or, perhaps, not even thought of yet!
