Managers are continually faced with the need to make decisions: that is to choose from among the available alternatives. Most decisions are prompted by problems, and problem solving always involves making decisions; therefore, the terms decision making and problem solving can be used interchangeably. Decision making is often subject to distortions and biases because it is usually a judgmental, not a mechanical, process. Planning, leading, organizing, and controlling are the basic management functions. As the table above shows, each function calls for decisions: which plan to implement, what goals to choose, which people to hire.
Plans are methods formulated for achieving a desired result. Planning is the process of establishing objectives and courses of action, prior to taking action. At a minimum, plans should specify what you will do, how you will do it, and when you will get it done. Goals, or objectives, are the specific results you want to achieve. Planning offers a number of benefits. You get to make decisions ahead of time, in your home or office, and with the luxury of having enough time to do research and weight your options. Planning provides direction and a sense of purpose. A plan provides a unifying framework against which decisions can be measured. Planning can also help identify potential opportunities and threats and at least reduce long-term risk. Planning facilitates control. Control means ensuring that activities conform to plans, according to the following three-step process: plans are set, performance is measured against these standards, and deviations are identified and corrected.
The jobs and responsibilities of the four kinds of managers are shown in Exhibit 1.2.
Every manger on the company’s business team makes decisions (see the table above). For example, the accounting manager decides what outside auditing firm to use and how many days a customer can be allowed to wait before it pays its bills. The sales manager decides which sales representatives to use in each region and which advertising agency to hire. The production manager decides between alternative suppliers and whether or not to recommend building a new plant.
