TOOLS FOR DECISION MAKING
• Typically, process mapping involves interviewing the people who carry out the
work at each stage to understand the main activities, information flows, and
connections. The next stage is to pin up a long sheet of brown paper – usually
between four and six meters long – and map out the process using post-it notes,
sheets of paper, and key documents. The people originally interviewed are then
invited to review their part of the process to ensure that what has been
constructed is an accurate description. Once this stage has been completed, the
people involved in the process or affected by it are invited to ‘‘walk through the
brown paper model,’’ adding suggestions for improvements on post-it notes as
they go. Once this has been done, the comments form the basis of the next
stage: re-drawing the brown paper process diagram to eliminate problems. The
beauty of this technique is that improvements can be tested by asking people to
walk the new process, before any expensive final decisions are made.
Decision tree
• – Probably the best known of all decision-making tools, a decision
tree is a graphic representation of the options flowing from an
initial decision or set of decisions. It is used to map out
alternative courses of action and assess the implications (e.g.
financial) of such decisions
