Thousands of Decisions

Every business is, in essence, thousands of decisions enacted every day. Some of those decisions will be big and clear and obvious but the majority of them will be simply replaying the actions from an earlier decision made sometime in the past, like the price we charge for any given product or service.

Often when those initial decisions were made, they were made on very sketchy foundations. They weren’t properly thought through or examined, so poor initial decisions tend to prevail and pervade our organisations and ultimately our performance is the sum total of all of the decisions we make and the actions we take.

Nancy Kline pointed out that the quality of everything we do depends upon the quality of thinking that we do first. How many of us have ever studied or researched how we think and how we really make decisions? How often do we enlist a thinking partner to elevate the level of our thinking? How often do we revisit our decisions though the lens of more advanced thinking? What might happen if we did?

So the questions for this week are;

• What can I read or study that might elevate my decision making processes?
• How can I enrol a thinking partner to elevate my thinking so that my decisions are at a higher level?
• What is my role in helping to elevate the individual and collective thinking of my people?
• On a scale of 0 to 10 how effective am I at that?
