After engaging in the decision-making process, write a 300 to 450-word reflection about the process. Describe all of the steps you took in the decision-making process and evaluate the effectiveness of the decision you made. Reflect on how the decision-making process you engaged in can be used in political party activities.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

As we do not know what was your decision, what we can do to help you is to explain the steps of the decision-making process, so you can apply or adjust the process to your decision.

The first step of any conventional decision-making process is to accept that there is a problem that needs to be addressed.  This is very important because although it is hard to believe, many organizations or people do not accept the fact that there is a problem that needs to be solved. So teh recommendation here is to always prevent, be alert, and take the initiative to solve an issue. Never wait until it's too late to make the first step.

Once this had been accepted, you have to identify the nature of the problem. This is very important, to identify the origin of the problem, not the symptoms. If you only get the symptoms, the problem will present itself in another version once or twice, or even more. Although it takes more time, do whatever is in your hands to go deep.

Next, you have to collect the information needed to resolve the issue. For this to happen, you have previously established good information systems that can help to get facts, data, numbers quickly. No time has to be wasted here.

What follows is to analyze different alternatives to select the best available. Be open to listening to everyone who has something valuable to say. You never know who will have the best idea. You weigh the evidence and select the best one, according to the circumstances.

After the decision is made, you have to take action and implement the decision. Finally, you have to evaluate if the decision was the right one and resolved the issue.
