Decision making involves identifying alternative courses of action and choosing appropriately for the situation. There are two types of decisions: programmed decisions which are routine and repetitive, applying set rules to recurring problems; and non-programmed decisions which are unique, unstructured problems requiring creativity to develop new solutions under uncertainty. The types differ in factors like the problem, managerial level, available information, and whether the solution relies on rules or judgment.

Kreitner TYPES OF DECISIONS ORGANISATIONAL VS PERSONAL DECISION STRATEGIC VS OPERATIONAL DECISIONS PROGRAMMED AND NON- PROGRAMMED DECISIONS PROGRAMMED DECISION A Repetitive decision that can be handled by a routine approach. To solve recurring problems which require structured solutions. Identifying the problem and applying decision rules for getting it solved. It remain consistent for relatively longer period of time and over many situations. NON-PROGRAMMED DECISIONS Made to problems which are unique and non-repetitive. Made for solving unstructured problem which changes by time and marked by high level of uncertainty. Made with regard to new situation so calls for lot of experience,creativity,innovativeness,farsig -htedness and judgement.
