Be it strategic, business activities or HR matters, processe of making decision is complex, involves professionals of different genre.

While small organization involves all levels of managers, complex organizations largely depend on a team of professionals specially trained to make all sorts of decisions.

By nature a human being during his existence and by virtue of his instinct makes decisions for his survival, as social psychologists put it.

By and large, managers are polished individuals to take decisions to affect others, ie the organization’s existence and growth thus is annotative with human endeavor to live and succeed. Success succeeds on the decisions taken, be it by an individual or an organization.
