Decision-Making

Assignment Overview Take a moment now to apply the concepts you learned from the readings this week. Follow the instructions below to submit your work. ________________________________________ “Choices are the hinges of destiny.” – Pythagoras ________________________________________ First, complete both of the following brief assessments. Be sure to record/save your results. Decision Making in Business http://money.cnn.com/quizzes/2006/fortune/decisions/index.html  (Links to an external site.) How Good is Your Decision Making? http://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/newTED_79.htm  (Links to an external site.)   The first assessment is designed to introduce common decision-making practices in business, as well as their shortcomings. As Christians, we are called to be in the world, but not of it (John 15:19). Our worldview impacts every part of our life, including school, family, friends, work, etc. – all of which are influenced by the decisions that we make. The second (self) assessment hopefully helped you to understand some of your own personal decision-making strengths, as well as areas for potential growth. Now, prepare a 1-2 page paper summarizing what you learned about the importance of effective decision-making skills. How does your faith affect the decisions that you make and the process by which you make them? In completing the assessments, what was most surprising, encouraging, etc.?   Sample Paper Format Requirements Document Type: MS Word Paper Size: 8.5 X 11″ Length: 1-2 pages Margins: 1″ Font: 10-12 pt Times New Roman or a similar font.
