How to Make Better Decisions


Business Owners, Entrepreneurs, & Senior Leaders are having difficult challenges these days. They are faced with having to make tough decisions... particularly related to employees.
We know. We are a family of several businesses. We're experiencing this first hand. For some owners and senior executive leaders, the difficult decision to keep employees, let some go, even to stay in business...among others are heart wrenching.
I saw one of the Shark Tank guys - Robert Herjavec - talking about this on CNBC the other day. He mentioned that - for some - one of the toughest parts of making these kinds of decisions is dealing with guilt. It's an interesting emotion.
Since helping clients make decisions is part of my work as an executive advisor, I decided to put together a video series for my fellow business owners and leaders.
I'd like to add a bit of certainty to a sea of uncertainty right now. Where possible, I'd like for them to feel certain that they are making the best decisions they can during these crazy economic times.
And the best way to do that is to have a reliable process. So I'm sharing the exact step-by-step decision-making process I use with my clients (which you can download). Among other needs, I also address how to work through being emotionally conflicted and information and tools to make the best staffing decisions.

Here are the relevant series links:

=> 5 Part Series - Including 3 videos on how to hire, when to let go or restructure

One final note. In following my series on the book The Effective Executive by Peter Drucker, you probably noticed that one of the essential components - I'd say skill - to being effective is decision-making. The above resources are extremely helpful if you see the need to improve in this area.
