Every organization needs to make decisions at one point or other as part of managerial process. Decisions are made in the best interest of the organization. For that matter, decisions made by the organization are to lighten the way forward.
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. But remember, such a body alone cannot come out with final decisions. Here, the point is, decision making process is cumulative and consultative process. The process, on the whole, bears its pros and cons and would by and large emanate results and consequences in the organizations’ overall growth and prospects.

Whole process is a chain affair where one decision taken at one point and at one level shall have far reaching implications in the way an organization moves forward.

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.
