    The document outlines two decision-making models: 1. A 6-step model that includes recognizing the need for a decision, analyzing causes, developing alternatives, selecting an alternative, implementing the choice, and evaluating feedback. 2. A 5-step NEC model involving defining objectives, collecting information, generating options, making a decision, and implementing and evaluating. It then provides details on a 5-step decision-making process: defining the objective, collecting relevant information, generating feasible options, making the decision based on criteria and risk assessment, and implementing and evaluating the choice.

    A Decision-Making Model

    Below is an example of a typical decision-making model:


    Step 1 Recognition of Decision Requirement This means that you will
    probably be faced
    with a problem or opportunity both of which require a decision
    Step 2 Diagnosis and Analysis of Causes Here you should consider what
    actually occurred, why it occurred, how it occurred, to whom did it occur, what is
    the urgency and how it is affecting other things. It is important that you consider
    these issues before deciding to generate ideas
    Step 3 Development of Alternatives Now its time for you to develop a list
    of alternatives. We shall be looking at some decision-making tools later in this
    topic but it is worth noting that what we call programmed decisions (i.e. those
    that are easy to make) are often easy to resolve and generating ideas is easy.
    Those decisions that are non-programmed decisions require a little more
    creativity
    Step 4Selecting an AlternativeThe best alternative you can choose is
    obviously one which best fits your original objective. For non-programmed
    decisions there may be some kind of risk associated with the decision and this is
    sometimes referred to as the risk propensity or the risk you might be prepared
    to take if there is an opportunity to gain an increased payoff
    Step 5 Implementing Your Chosen Alternative This is where you have to turn
    your decision into action so you need the resources and co-operation of those
    affected
    Stage 6 Evaluation and Feedback Once you have decided what to do and it
    is turned into action, you need to gather information to make an informed
    decision about whether the alternative you chose was right or not This stage will
    also allow you to learn lessons from the whole process

    What is your objective?


    Collect the relevant information
    Generate feasible options
    Make the decision
    Implement and evaluate

    Step 1: Define the objective


    What is your objective in making this decision? What exactly are you trying to
    achieve?
    Step 2: Collect relevant information
    Collecting and sifting relevant information can be a lengthy process, and you
    may be tempted
    to press on if there is information missing. However, if you do need particular
    information, its
    better to wait for it if you can.
    Step 3: Generate feasible options

    If youre brainstorming and need to help the process along, you could consider
    using some
    keyword triggers:
    Interim what would put the situation on hold and allow some breathing space?
    Adaptive how could you adapt the situation and make it normal?
    Corrective how can you change things to bring plans back on track, or to
    eliminate the problem?
    Preventative how can you minimise risk?
    Contingency what can you do to prevent a recurrence of the situation?
    Step 4: Make the decision
    First establish criteria to help you select your preferred option. You need to
    narrow down the options to those that satisfy essential criteria, and then find
    which one satisfies as many of the desirable criteria as possible. There is an
    element of risk associated with any decision, and risk assessment can be a
    highly mathematical process. In the main, more decisions are taken on the back
    of experience than on the basis of mathematical calculation. Consider the
    worst-case scenario and then look at how your options help mitigate that risk.
    Step 5: Implement and evaluate
    As with problem solving, you should plan carefully to introduce your decision and
    then monitor and review it to make sure that its effective. Many organisations
    try to encourage constructive risk taking and responsibility, but of course there
    are various influences on how decision making and problem solving are managed
    in practice.
