An ad hoc committee has been created to decide if the launch for a new product should be continued as scheduled or delayed. the committee members are comprised of diverse decision-makers. stan is making a plea to the committee to delay based on a hunch he has. mary has presented a case for her recommendation based on a simplified model to reduce the complexity of the decision at hand. caroline has carefully constructed a flow chart defining the problem, identifying the decision criteria, allocating weights to the criteria, developing a list of all the possible alternatives, evaluating these alternatives, and then selecting the "best" alternative. which approach to decision-making is caroline using?

Caroline is using the Rational-analytical approach to decistion making

There are a few approaches to Decistion Making, the 4 most common are:

In the case of the rational- analytical approach, we should be fully aware of all alternatives  and its consecuences in order to select the one alternative that maiximizes the profit.

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
