LEANING INTO DECISION-MAKING

What's your relationship like with making decisions right now? As we enter a new quarter (and for many of you - one that involves annual work planning and budgeting) here are some resources and an invitation to reflect.

• This short article on leadership styles and decision-making.

• Three different approaches for tackling a decision are shared in this TED blog post.

• Here is a 7-minute listen about one tool you can use to help with decision-making based on The Checklist Manifesto from Atul Gwande.

THE PRACTICE

Grab some paper and a pen and take a few minutes to reflect on the following:

• What is your current level of comfort in making decisions for your team? (On a scale of 1-5)

• What is easy and what is challenging for you when it comes to making decisions?

Based on your reflection, what's one tool you would like to use to improve your level of comfort?
