Decision Making

Being a leader is a stressful job, and it is decision making which people often find the hardest. What is often the case is that you will find yourself always sticking to what worked before and not taking each problem on its own merits. However here are five easy steps to help you in making your decisions:

1. Understand the problem: Make sure you realise what exactly is wrong before you try and fix it, you may just make matters worse otherwise.
2. List the potential approaches that could resolve your problem: This way you will have had to look at the situation in more detail than you might have otherwise and, with more options, are better equipped to solve it.
3. Select the best approach: this takes time, don’t rush.
4. Carefully monitor the plan’s implementation: Have everyone know, clearly, what they are doing, and make sure that they are doing it correctly.
5. Check that the problem is fixed: It is important to make sure that the problem has been resolved and that your solution has worked and that the problem isn’t recurring.
