Decision Making = is the core of the planning process; a plan does not come into being unless a ‘decision’ i.e. certain commitments of resources, managerial time and money are made and risks are taken.

Without due analysis of the conditions, mistakes tend to repeat or a poor fit results. “ Research & analysis”: the approach is in at first understanding the problem (‘half the solution’!), then finding relations between various factors which hinder or foster goal attainment. This is a structured, analytical approach quantitative or otherwise. “ Experimentation”: arguably, the best technique to use, particularly when either experience or rationale is lacking/limited.

Editor's Notes
There are many types of plans. Short term , Long term depending on time frame Mission of Indira is ‘To train our students to become the best business minds and entrepreneurs today who will lead their companies successfully into the future tomorrow, locally, nationally and globally”
Strategy - Infosys acquiring an IT firm in Australia to increase business opportunities. Hindustan Lever opting for ‘contract ‘ manufacturing of Wheel detergent to keep costs down to compete with Nirma
Promotions from within the company, Policy of recruiting only IIM graduates.
Procedures for responding to a Sales query
Setting up educational institute, Setting up a new factory, Setting up a business
Could be in Financial terms such as “Sales figures”, Profit, Expense figures, Capital expenditure etc.. Also could be in terms of “No. of units produced”, “Man hours’ , “ consumption of raw material’ or any other numerically measurable term
Being aware of the opportunity- Though not exactly part a part of Planning process, it is the starting point. Setting realistic objectives depends on this awareness
Time frame for product development of a new generation of air craft will be 6 to 8 years. That for a new soap will be 1 to 2 years
Objectives specify expected results and when. Objectives drive all other plans. Major objectives control objective of subordinate departments. – Hierarchy of objectives
Traditional appraisal was based on personality traits and objectives were generally vague
(Sales, Profit, Cost , Quantity of production, Number of hours of work or Training…..) ( % Profit margin, % cost reduction, % increase in Sales, % Reduction in machine down time hours , % increase in production…)
Goals should be challenging (stretch) and achievable (realistic). This presents problems Excessive emphasis on numerical goals encourages unethical behaviour ( Over promising which Org cannot deliver) Production manager neglecting plant maintenance to achieve cost reduction. But there will be more breakdowns in future. Short term at odds with Long term
