The human factor in decision making
- 1. The human factor in decision-making: the great
challenge of the brave and courageous companies
Introduction
The possibilities and the potential of a person with at least three
years of work experience in their professional specialty is
outstanding. This is one of the many reasons why we must
transform the professional skill acquired with effort and full
dedication to facts and actions. From that time we run the risk that
the training acquired both academically and professionally decay
and no longer serves to achieve the objectives and commitments
required by any company. Qualification begins to resent not
updated. Business strategy becomes the strategy of people. All
born and developed from self, but the instruments and tools
needed to achieve a result is needed and achieve goals, this is the
reason we have the talent companies need to instruct him to put
the day.
Companies are what they are by the people who make up a
company are as per the philosophy that empowers individuals
working for it; is where he acquired his "personality" is developed
by applying her own way of understanding the idea of business
you have, it is transformed to a drastic change produced by your
idea of starting business fails (humility) and when that company
ceases to believe in herself disappears. Companies are like living
organisms because they are composed of human beings. In every
business there is a human projection. Business Ideas - People are
synchronized.

- 2. Strategic Measures
1. The protagonists of the business must be in addition to the
income statement, sales target, its listed or the name or
reputation of the Company's shares, the people who work
within it.
2. Consequence of the first measure is that companies can not
treat this point in your career as a human resources (resources
are facilities, buildings or printer we have in our department
work) but as human resources. Each person is a source of
talent and knowledge within their field or specialty.
(Department. Talent Management and People Management).
3. The system "command and control" is obsolete. Everyone
in your workplace knows a better job, is an innate
responsibility to the job at hand, but why hold this position ?.
Good ideas developed and worked through ingenuity and
interest must develop them to the attention of senior
management to study the feasibility of implementation. Most
likely, that translates into significant savings on hundreds of
thousands or millions of dollars or euros for the company.
4. Consequence of the above: promote imagination and
creativity of all employees. You have to believe in people,
look for the best of each, giving them facilities to develop
their full potential. With three steps: graduate, Coaching and
as a consequence of the first two training: people are more
ready to take increasing responsibility within the company
and more importantly their involvement in the income
statement.

- 3. 5. Be consistent between company values and politics in
People Management. We must thoroughly review the climate,
culture and business ethics especially because sooner or later
people will realize being used. Many companies are
contaminated by this defect, difficult to eradicate once it has
spread throughout the organizational structure.
6. The guarantee of success is not hiring the best. Ordinary
people (most) achieve extraordinary results. You have to have
people passionate about the company and the project.
Employees who stand on the other are not enough. A
professional is what you do not know what it says. In practice
the depth of knowledge is measured. We must improve the
training of employees who have some time in the company to
hire "figures". Who does not know a company better but the
people who compose ?. All this has to be encouraged and not
have to be economically: greater autonomy in the workplace
and leadership in business and decision making in the
department, granting productive absence, attendance at
seminars, conferences, continuing education and graduate. In
short, there is motivation to wake up dormant in all of us
through the stimulation of the need to learn more by
continuous changes that occur in our environment. After
we've had over there to look at the person, his humility and
the ability to be proactive teamwork. People with potential
involvement in the project of any company worth more than
people with experience, as long-term potential is more
valuable, but we must cultivate and promote it to corporate
training and active participation in the Company.
7. We have to leave the offices and communicate with people
working in the company. You have to walk through the
different departments of a company and treat their
professional face looking at them if they need anything, yes

- 4. they are comfortable with the work they do, which would
improve aspects in implementing strategies that your
department may have in mind. Moving from a vertical to a
horizontal hierarchy.
8. How bad must bring good: The mistake in the strategic
decision making or losing control too for having delegated to
one or more subordinates has its positive side. The Irish
writer James Joyce author of the famous novel Ulysses said
"mistakes are the threshold of discovery." If we are wrong we
can not lose enthusiasm, we must analyze the causes that
have led us to make those mistakes and correcting them will
have acquired a rich, positive and unique learning that are not
in any graduate program or agenda of any university. It is a
calculated risk that must be taken into account.
I have an equation to prove: ∑ x + ∑ n = ∞ where if you add "x"
that are all the times you fall, when you make mistakes, you're
wrong, add "n" which is all the time you wake up, you correct it
and learn; will equal the infinite possibilities (∞) you can have to
gain experience: "If you fall get up once more one, one plus one
plus ... " so countless times... it all adds up and results in
increasing your view facing the horizon is called: promising
future. There is a saying: "Never close the door to errors that
leave out the truth."

- 5. Conclusion
To end this article, I recall one of the most prolific and bold
Managers who have been in the American automobile industry in
the 70s and 80s of the twentieth century. Of humble origin and son
of Italian immigrants, the man who started the commercial
technician Ford and reached his presidency, the father of
legendary sports Ford Mustang, former chairman of the Chrysler
Corporation that a dollar saved for a year bankruptcy and also the
creator of the Dodge Caravan Plymouth Voyager; embryo of
current carriers and was the most successful vehicle sales in the
United States in the early eighties. He created untold wealth of
talent, jobs, was the precursor to listen to the workers of the
factories to get involved to be key elements of the Company to
link the improvement of productivity improvements in the
production and contributed to GDP growth in the United States in
a remarkable way. This manager is called: Lee Iacocca, and one of
the many good advice he gave:
"When you have to make a decision, do not let your beards grow.
Naturally, they will not always be perfect, or rather paw meteréis
you sometime. Learn from mistakes, but do not fail to try.
Introverts of the world, those who never run any risk, probably
because they are burned when they were very young; maybe they
made a wrong move in marbles tournament or a game of checkers,
and who seek never to be mistaken. That's not life ... and certainly
is not the way to make a profit. "
