Making decisions Have you ever been in a meeting where there was a real need to make a decision, but the group found it difficult to come to a consensus?
Reaching the best solution Can you think of a situation where there have been a number of options and you wondered how to decide on the best possible solution?
6-Step Decision-Making Model: State the situation. Get the facts. Establish criteria.(negotiables + non-negotiables) List the alternatives. Weigh alternatives against criteria. Limit the debate to criteria that points to the solution.
Step 1. State the Situation I need to buy a motorbike.
Step 2. Get the facts (as many relevant facts as possible). Motors from 50cc to 1500cc Prices range from 400€ to 20.000€ Some allow two people to ride Some come with a security system Some have an electric starter With used bikes, the tires can be practically new to worn out—they will need to be replaced soon Bikes come in a variety of colours
Step 3. Establish the criteria Not all have the same importance. Negotiable Non-negotiable This is the key part of the process! You want to think twice before making things “non-negotiable.”
Establishing my/our criteria: Non-negotiables: Cost: No more than 1.000€ Extra seat Cargo carrier Good headlight Security (way to lock/secure it) Negotiables: Good tires (not expensive) Top speed: 60 kph Colour: Blue Electric start

Step 6. Limit the debate Stick to what you decided before! Especially when it comes to what was going to be negotiable and non-negotiable. This saves you from heated emotional debates!
Before the discussion we always need to pray.We need the Lord to give us wisdom!
Following this process becomes a team-building exerciseWe do it together!
