There are five steps in rational decision model:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Define the problem:<\/strong> Define important problems with clarity and precision.\n
      \n
    • In business, the problem can come in the form of customer complaints, supplier breakdowns, staff turnover, sales decline, and so on.<\/li>\n
    •  Organizations proactively seek opportunities to exceed goals, surpass industry expectations, and to expand and grow the business. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
    • Analyze alternatives:<\/strong> Apply a careful and thoughtful approach to evaluating viable alternative solutions, considering the implications for all stakeholders.\n
        \n
      • Leaders should seek input from multiple sources to interpret and analyze the problem\/opportunity to come up with as many options as possible to solve the issue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • Make Choice:<\/strong> Check that the choice reflects the best ends and uses the right means.\n
          \n
        • Is the action ethical?<\/li>\n
        • Is it feasible? (Costs, technology availability.)<\/li>\n
        • Is it effective? If your answer to this question is, the resolution is “good enough,” you want to rethink this solution\u2014it will cause more harm than good.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
        • Take Action<\/strong>: Check consistency and integrity of actual actions versus intended actions.\n
            \n
          • Ensuring everyone understands their role in executing the decision is vital.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
          • Evaluate Results<\/strong>: Check actual ends and means versus desired ends and means. \n
              \n
            • You may use quantitative and\/or qualitative data to evaluate results to support or refute decisions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              On the other hand, non-rational decisions are generally the result of either satisficing<\/em> (going with the first available option without much research) or intuition<\/em> (using your “gut” or just your own feelings to make decisions).<\/p>\n

              For this week’s discussion, think about a time when you made a non-rational decision on the job or in your personal life.<\/p>\n

              Respond to the following:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
                \n
              • Was it the result of satisficing or intuition?<\/li>\n
              • How would your decision have been different using the four steps for rational decision-making?<\/li>\n
              • How would the steps have helped you to make a better or more sound decision?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
