– What decision-making process or framework did you utilize to make your decision?
– As a leader, what are your recommendations for how to make decisions when faced with dilemmas and uncertainty?
– As I reflect on the course materials so far this semester, what new insights do I have about how I process information and make decisions?
– Do these insights indicate to me that I should make any changes in my approach to making decisions and how I would practically execute these changes?
– How do I apply what I have learned so far to my immediate and future context as a leader? In other words, how does this knowledge inform your understanding of how other people you might be working with make decisions, and as a leader how can you use this information to create a system, climate, and culture where there is constantly more healthy and productive decision-making?
