Essential Questions
1. Why is decision making essential to the success of
the organization?
2. In your school, do some teachers seem to have
more degrees of autonomy in making decisions than others? If so, explain
why.
Essential Learning
What’s the every decision you’re making each day? Should I get up and
go to work? Or should I just hit the snooze button and just go back to sleep?
We make thousands of decisions every day some are easy and some are
complex. But the best thing is through decision making we choose the best
choices that will never leave in regret one day.
According to Oxford Dictionary, decision making is the action or
process of making important decisions. While in Merriam Webster Dictionary,
decision making is the act or process of deciding something especially with a
group of people.
Just like both dictionaries have defined, decision making is making the
best choices for the benefit and growth of the organization that we all belong. It
is not a simple decision making because just like what Adam White said, the
choices we make today have important implications so better think
carefully the choices that we’ll make. Decision making has been always
recognized to be the heart of every organization. An organization becomes
successful if there is a good decision making. A good decision making that
achieve its goals and must supply all the needs of the organization to be
solved and satisfied. It is also a major responsibility of all administrators, but
until decisions are converted into action they are just only a good intentions. In
these module we’ll discuss about the two types of Decision making- Rational
Decision Making and Participative Decision Making.
The analysis of the situation may begin with the “yes” or “no” method following
these questions:
YES NO
1. Does the problem possess a quality requirement?
2. Does the leader have sufficient information to make a
good decision?
3. Is the problem structured?
4. Is it necessary for others to accept the decision in order
for it to be implemented?
5. If the leader makes the decision alone, how certain is
that others will accept it?
6. Do others share organizational goals that will be attained
by solving this problem?
7. Are the preferred solutions to the problem likely to create
conflict among others in the group?
Participative decision making is wherein two powers are involved which are
the power and influence of the leader and the power and influence of the other
members of the organization. In choosing this type of decision making it aims
to arrive at better decisions and enhance the growth and development of
organization’s participants (like improved communication skills, improved
motivation, improved sharing of ideas and goals and better-developed
group-process skills or the rapport) In this type, the followers are welcome to
ask questions and offer a tentative solutions or decision to the subject unlike
before that only the administrator are allowed.
This model originally created by Victor Vroom and Philip Yetton in 1973
and later modified by Arthur Jago (1988). In their latest version it focusses on
the participation of every member in the group in decision making rather than
the administrator who only decide.
AUTOCRATIC PROCESS
• The leader makes the decision using whatever information is
available.
• The leader secure all the information that he/she gets from the
members then make the decision. In this process, the leader may
or may not tell the problem is.
CONSULTATIVE PROCESS
• The leader will tell the problem to the relevant members in a
one-to-one basis to hear each of their suggestions, then decide.
• The leader will open the problem at the meeting and hear all the
ideas and suggestions of each members, then decide.
GROUP PROCESS
• The leader shares the problem with the group then facilitates to
reach consensus on a group decision. He/she may share or give
information but does not try to “sell” his own idea to manipulate
the decisions of other members.
The Hoy-Tarter Model: A Simplified Model of Shared Decision Making
administrators can keep in their heads and easily apply when the situation is
appropriate. Wherein the research on participating the teachers in decision
making has generally supported the desirability of empowering teachers in the
process, but according to that research that participation is not always
advantageous, that is, the effective of the teachers depend on the problem
and situation.

that is, when two determined, stubborn, ego-invested individuals interact --
