making is a daily activity for any human being. There is no exception about
that. When it comes to business organizations, decision making is a habit and a
process as well.Effective and successful decisions make profit to the company and unsuccessful ones make losses. Therefore, corporate decision making process is the most critical process in any organization.
In the decision making process, we choose one course of action from a few possible alternatives. In the process of decision making, we may use many tools, techniques, and perceptions.
In addition, we may make our own private decision or may prefer a collective decision.
Usually, decision-making is hard. Majority of corporate decisions involve some level of dissatisfaction or conflict with another party.
