Quality decision management -the heart of effective futures-oriented management: a primer for effective decision-based management

The effectiveness of management of any type of organization depends largely on the effectiveness of the decisions made at the various levels of the organization, their timeliness, resourcefulness and efficiency. New developments in information technology offer opportunities for greatly improving the decision making and as a result operational processes at all levels of an organization. New real time information management systems permit delegation of many decision management functions to the lowest competent level in an organization and thereby not only eliminate the need for some middle management or intermediate functions, but also assure much more responsive and informed operational management. Provides a practical and readily implementable approach to improvements in organizational management, enhancement of job satisfaction, and introduction of more responsive organizations capable of efficient change so as to follownew developments in demand, technology, business or market environments, and social relationships INDICE: From the contents Preamble – Decisions as the Lifeblood of Management and Progress.
