Life is a series of decisions. In 2019, decision quality is at the top of the list of needed skills to excel in relationships or business. Success is the accumulation of decisions. Quality decision making is a skill that is necessary to lead brilliantly. This skill can grow and be groomed over time. This skill is often taught through association, experience, and even through methods (agile methodology is the new buzz). I have listed below a set of incisive questions to help you assess your decision making style and through the answering of the questions, you can further pin point target areas for growth.
What is your unique decision making style?
Do you incorporate intelligence, emotion, experience, or intuition? Do you lean on one more than the others?
Do you set aside enough time to properly vet your decisions or incorporate enough independent opinions to help shape your decisions?
How do you determine if you have a blind spot?
How would you rate your past decisions? What were the end results (short term and long term)?
Have you identified any known cycles, patterns, or behaviors that are detrimental or beneficial?
Are your decisions timely or is there a tendency to procrastinate?
These are just a few questions to ponder concerning the topic. From your experience, what are other things to consider to improve/grow in decision quality? Please share your views in the comments below.
