UNDERSTANDING SELF-LEADERSHIP
Learning Objectives
At the end of this chapter, the students will able to:
✓ define self-concept & self-leadership
✓ explain and appreciate the significance of self-leadership

WHAT IS SELF-CONCEPT?
Self-concept is how we perceive our behaviors, abilities, and unique
characteristics. It is how someone thinks about, evaluates, or perceives themselves. To
be aware of oneself is to have a concept of oneself. It is a schema consisting of an
organized collection of beliefs and feelings about oneself.

SIGNIFICANCE OF SELF-LEADERSHIP
Self-leadership is important because it helps, and individual accomplish his/her
professional goals and to be a good leader to others. Good leaders must have the ability
to lead by example.
Self-leadership is important as a foundation for personal, team, business, and
strategic leadership; and it serves as a starting point to any organizational or leadership
development program.
1. Makes a person more efficient and productive.
2. Keeps a person motivated and accountable
3. Builds stronger relationships with co-workers
4. Inspires others to follow a person’s lead
DEVELOPMENT OF SELF-LEADERSHIP
As mentioned earlier, everybody is a future leader. Leadership is therefore not an
inborn trait, but it is developed to become a leader through learning and training people
with a sincere interest. The following are the ways of developing self-leadership.
1. Clarity of Purpose. This means that each entity must have a vision and be able to set
it up. Being your own leader, your purpose or vision will be the foundation upon which
you will build self-leadership. Without clearly planned expectations or intent for your
life, you will be at risk, attempting to fulfill the wishes or ideas of people for your life
and you will end up lost in the middle of nowhere.
2. Aim at success and Take Reasonable on your life. Risk-taking is a necessary part
of life challenge yourself to take on challenging assignments.do not deter yourself or
others from past failures rather concentrate on success. However, risks which are
applicable to your intent should be fairly measured.
3. Spend Time to Reflect on your Life. Reflections can also mean letting others make
an objective evaluation of you. Although you remain the active doer of the things that
you are doing, you may only see things from your viewpoint. Taking some time off to
think about life. Compare experience of current and present to hopes of the future.
you can never notice those small defects until you pause to examine yourself.
4. Don’t tolerate just anything. You should not risk your dream you should learn to be
intolerant to any suggestions or ideas that don’t suit your vision. This intolerance is

such as laziness, anxiety and many others in your nature.

At the end of this chapter, the students will able to:
✓ define leadership;
✓ enumerate the theories of leadership;
✓ describe the three (3) classical leadership styles; and
✓ differentiate the principles of the different theories of leaderships.
✓
✓ OF LEADERSHIP
CONCEPT
➢ Leadership is the ability of an individual or a group of individuals to influence
and guide followers or other members of an organization. It is vital to
communication, teamwork and collaboration. Criminal justice relies on this
kind of integrated leadership to coordinate the efforts of multiple disciplines
towards shared goals.
LEADER
A leader is the one in the charge, the person who convinces other people to follow.
A great leader inspires confidence in other people and moves them to action.

5. Honesty: He is loyal and honest. Honesty is essential to be an ethical and
effective leader. Honest leaders can be always relied upon and depended
upon. They always earn respect of their followers. An honest leader presents
the fact and circumstances truly and completely, no matter how critical and
harmful the fact may be. He does not misrepresent any fact.
It is essential to note that leadership is all about values, and it is impossible
to be a leader if you lack the awareness and concern for your own personal
values. Leadership has a moral and ethical aspect. These ethics define
leadership. Leaders can use the above-mentioned traits as yardsticks for
influencing their own behavior.

Leadership, Decision Making, Management and Administration
====================================================================================
An effective leader is one who meets the job requirements, team requirements as
well as individual requirements. While concentrating on the job, a leader would
synchronize the departmental goals with the organizational goals. He would ensure that
the employees have the required skills and competencies for performing the job
effectively and efficiently. He would provide the employees the essential resources for
performing the job such as time, knowledge and equipment. He would ensure that
employees have no difficulty in performing the tasks assigned to them. And finally, an
effective leader would review progress and give the employees feedback of their
performance.
When a leader is focusing on people, he must be compassionate and empathic.
He should listen to the employees with understanding. He must respect their views and
ideas. He must train and coach them and make an effort to eliminate unnecessary
obstacles from the employees’ work responsibilities.
Finally, when an effective leader focuses on team, he should coordinate team’s
efforts. He must celebrate team’s success. He should review and promote friendly and
social environment. He should develop a team spirit and achievement sense among the
employees as a team.
TYPES OF LEADERS
1. Democratic Leadership (Commonly Effective).
✓ The leader makes decisions based on the input of each team member.
Although he or she makes the final call, each employee has an equal say on a
project's direction.
2. Autocratic Leadership (Rarely Effective)
✓ Autocratic leadership is the inverse of democratic leadership. In this
leadership style, the leader makes decisions without taking input from anyone
who reports to them.
3. Laissez-Faire Leadership (Sometimes Effective)
✓ The laissez-faire leadership is the least intrusive form of leadership. The French
term "laissez faire" literally translates to "let them do," and leaders who
embrace it afford nearly all authority to their employees.
4. Strategic Leadership (Commonly Effective)
✓ Strategic leaders sit at the intersection between a company's main operations
and its growth opportunities. He or she accepts the burden of executive
interests while ensuring that current working conditions remain stable for
everyone else.
5. Transformational Leadership (Sometimes Effective)
✓ Transformational leadership is always "transforming" and improving upon the
company's conventions. Employees might have a basic set of tasks and goals
that they complete every week or month, but the leader is constantly pushing
them outside of their comfort zone.
6. Transactional Leadership (Sometimes Effective)
➢ Transactional leaders are fairly common today. These managers reward their
employees for precisely the work they do. A marketing team that receives a
scheduled bonus for helping generate a certain number of leads by the end of
the quarter is a common example of transactional leadership.

7. Coach-Style Leadership (Commonly Effective)
➢ Similarly, to a sports team's coach, this leader focuses on identifying and
nurturing the individual strengths of each member on his or her team. They also
focus on strategies that will enable their team work better together. This style
offers strong similarities to strategic and democratic leadership, but puts more
emphasis on the growth and success of individual employees.
8. Bureaucratic Leadership (Rarely Effective)
➢ Bureaucratic leaders go by the books. This style of leadership might listen and
consider the input of employees -- unlike autocratic leadership -- but the
leader tends to reject an employee's input if it conflicts with company policy or
past practices.
➢ You may run into a bureaucratic leader at a larger, older, or traditional
company. At these companies, when a colleague or employee proposes a
strong strategy that seems new or non-traditional, bureaucratic leaders may
reject it. Their resistance might be because the company has already been
successful with current processes and trying something new could waste time
or resources if it doesn't work.
THEORIES OF LEADERSHIP
1. The Blake Mouton Managerial Grid
Also known as the Managerial Grid, or Leadership Grid, it was developed in the
early 1960s by management theorists Robert Blake and Jane Mouton. It plots a
manager's or leader's degree of task-centeredness versus her person-centeredness
and identifies five different combinations of the two and the leadership styles they
produce.
Understanding the Model
The Blake Mouton Managerial Grid is based on two behavioral dimensions:
✓ Concern for People: this is the degree to which a leader considers team members'
needs, interests and areas of personal development when deciding how best to
accomplish a task.
✓ Concern for Results:
this is the degree to
which a leader
emphasizes concrete
objectives,
organizational
efficiency and high
productivity when
deciding how best to
accomplish a task.

A. Impoverished Management – Low Results/Low People
The Impoverished or "indifferent" manager is mostly ineffective. With a low regard for
creating systems that get the job done, and with little interest in creating a satisfying or
motivating team environment, his results are inevitably disorganization, dissatisfaction
and disharmony.
B. Produce-or-Perish Management – High Results/Low People
Also known as "authoritarian" or "authority-compliance" managers, people in this
category believe that their team members are simply a means to an end. The team's
needs are always secondary to its productivity.
This type of manager is autocratic, has strict work rules, policies and procedures, and
can view punishment as an effective way of motivating team members. This approach
can drive impressive production results at first, but low team morale and motivation will
ultimately affect people's performance, and this type of leader will struggle to retain high
performers.
C. Middle-of-the-Road Management – Medium Results/Medium People
A Middle-of-the-Road or "status quo" manager tries to balance results and people, but
this strategy is not as effective as it may sound. Through continual compromise, he fails
to inspire high performance and also fails to meet people's needs fully. The result is that
his team will likely deliver only mediocre performance.
D. Country Club Management – High People/Low Results
The Country Club or "accommodating" style of manager is most concerned about her
team members' needs and feelings. She assumes that, as long as they are happy and
secure, they will work hard. What tends to be the result is a work environment that is very
relaxed and fun, but where productivity suffers because there is a lack of direction and
control.
E. Team Management – High Production/High People
According to the Blake Mouton model, Team management is the most effective
leadership style. It reflects a leader who is passionate about his work and who does the
best he can for the people he works with.
Team or "sound" managers commit to their organization's goals and mission, motivate
the people who report to them, and work hard to get people to stretch themselves to
deliver great results. But, at the same time, they're inspiring figures who look after their
teams. Someone led by a Team manager feels respected and empowered and is
committed to achieving her goals.

a. Directive, path-goal clarifying leader: The leader clearly defines what is
expected of followers and tells them how to perform their tasks. The theory
argues that this behavior has the most positive effect when the subordinates’
role and task demands are ambiguous and intrinsically satisfying.
b. Achievement-oriented leader: The leader sets challenging goals for followers,
expects them to perform at their highest level, and shows confidence in their
ability to meet this expectation. Occupations in which the achievement motive
was most predominant were technical jobs, salespersons, scientists,
engineers, and entrepreneurs.
c. Participative leader: The leader seeks to collaborate with followers and
involve them in the decision-making process. This behavior is dominant when
subordinates are highly personally involved in their work.
d. Supportive leader: The main role of the leader is to be responsive to the
emotional and psychological needs of followers. This behavior is especially
needed in situations in which tasks or relationships are psychologically or
physically distressing. The Path-Goal model emphasizes the importance of the
leader’s ability to interpret follower’s needs accurately and to respond flexibly
to the requirements of a situation.
The Great Man Theory was established in the 19th century by Thomas Carlyle, who
put forth the idea that the world’s history is nothing more than a collection of
biographies belonging to great men, and the capacity for leadership is innate. It
posited the idea that great leaders are born, not made. These individuals come into
the world possessing certain characteristics and traits not found in all people. Under
great man theory, prominent leaders throughout the course of history were born to
lead and deserved to do so as a result of their natural abilities and talents.
4. Trait Theory
Successful leaders have interests, abilities, and personality traits that are different
from those of the less effective leaders. Through many researchers conducted in the
last three decades of the 20th century, a set of core traits of successful leaders have
been identified. These traits are not responsible solely to identify whether a person
will be a successful leader or not, but they are essentially seen as preconditions that
endow people with leadership potential.
====================================================================================

Character Formation 2
Leadership, Decision Making, Management and Administration
====================================================================================
According to the researchers, the traits most commonly associated with great
leadership include:
1. Adaptability and Flexibility. Effective leaders don’t get stuck in a rut. They are
able to think outside of the box and adapt quickly to changing situations.
2. Assertiveness. A great leader is able to be direct and be assertive without coming
off as overly pushy or aggressive.
3. Capacity to Motivate People. A great leader knows how to inspire others and
motivate them to do their best.
4. Courage and Resolution. The best leaders are brave and committed to the goals
of the group. They do not hide from challenges.
5. Creativity. Great leaders not only possess their own creativity, but they are also
able to foster creativity among members of the group.
6. Decisiveness. A great leader is capable of making a decision and is confident in
his or her choices.
7. Eagerness to Accept Responsibility. Strong leaders take on responsibility and
don’t pass the blame on the others. They stand by their success and take
ownership of their mistakes.
8. Emotional Stability. In addition to being dependable overall, strong leaders are
able to control their emotions and avoid overreactions.
9. Intelligence and Action-Oriented Judgement. Great leaders are smart and make
choices that move the group forward.
10. Need for Achievement. Strong leaders have a need to succeed and help the group
achieve goals. They genuinely care about the success of the group and are
committed to helping the group reach these milestones.
11. People Skills. Excellent interpersonal skills are essential for leading effectively.
Great leaders know how to interact well with other leaders as well as with team
members.
12. Perseverance. Strong leaders stick with it, even when things get difficult or the
group faces significant obstacles.
13. Self-Confidence. Many of the best leaders are extremely self-assured. They are
confident in themselves; followers often begin to share this self-belief.
14. Task Competence. A great leader is killed and capable. Members of the group are
able to look to the leader for an example of how things should be done.
15. Trustworthiness. Group members need to be able to depend upon and trust the
person leading them.
16. Understanding their followers and their needs. Effective leaders pay attention to
group members and genuinely care about helping them succeed. They want each
person in the group to succeed and play a role in moving the entire group forward.
The traits approach gives rise to questions: whether leaders are born or made;
and whether leadership is an art or science. However, these are not mutually
exclusive alternatives. Leadership may be something of an art; it still requires the
application of special skills and techniques. Even if there are certain inborn
qualities that make one a good leader, these natural talents need encouragement
and development. A person is not born with self-confidence. Self-confidence is
developed, honesty and integrity are a matter of personal choice, motivation to
lead comes from within the individual, and the knowledge of business can be

CONCEPT OF ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP
Learning Objectives
ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP
Organizational leadership refers to the overarching field of a person (the leader)
strategically guiding and managing a group of people (the organization) to meet a
common goal. It is a management approach in which leaders help set strategic goals for
the organization while motivating individuals within the group to successfully carry out
assignments in service to those goals. It emphasizes on developing leadership skills and
abilities that are relevant across the organizations. It means the potential of the
individuals to face the hard times in the industry and still grow during those times.
The success of the leader is dependent on how the leader is effectively able to
communicate and motivate followers to perform desired tasks using the appropriate
leadership style best suited from the given situation. Follower, Communication, and
Situation; interdependencies and dynamics of these four factors of leadership must be
considered by a leader to be effective.
1. Motivate Followers
2. Allows for a Problem-solving and decision-making Mindset
3. Promotes Communication, Ethics, Inclusion, and Respect
4. Allows Organizational Leaders to remain Goal-oriented
LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES
Leadership Principles are a framework of actions you can take as a leader to
inspire others to work together toward a common goal; they are the foundation for
success. These are set of actions or guidelines beliefs that leaders can implement to
move them toward success. The following leadership principles are commonly seen as
vital to success:
1. Lead by example
2. Leadership is about people
3. Focus on Change
4. Be Human and Admit Mistakes
5. Understand the Value of listening
6. Develop Leadership Skills
7. Promote Diversity
8. Work Together to Achieve More
9. Have Solid Values

THE SIX TYPES POWER FOR LEADERS
An effective leader understands how to wield power and what it means when
he/she does so. The use of power is one of many tools at leader’s disposal. Power in itself
neither good or bad as it is the wielder that determines if power is used to serve or to
undermine a company goals. It is a necessary tool for enacting change within your sphere
of influence. If used effectively, the use of power will gain respect and achieve results. If
used improperly, the misuse of power can hamstring an organization and lead to
stagnation.
According to John French and Betram Raven (1959) in their work entitled The Bases
of Social Power., they introduced five distinct types of power. They later added a sixth. All
six of these types of powers are part of the fundamental knowledge that all leaders must
possess to be effective. These are (Prescott,2015):
1. Coercive Power-power based on fear.
2. Reward Power- compliance achieved on the basis of the ability o distribute
rewards which others find important.
3. Legitimate Power-the power a person receives in an organization’s formal
hierarchy as a consequence of his or her role.
4. Expert Power- influence based on special skills or knowledge.
5. Referent Power- influence based on individual or desirable possession of
wealth or personal traits.
6. Informational Power-providing information to others which leads to thinking or
acting in a new way.
SGNIFICANCE OF SELF-CONTROL IN LEADERSHIP
Leaders being influential individuals within the organization and having the
greatest impact on the lives of their people, must learn and exercise self-control. Leaders
are gaining people’s trust, power and respect when they exemplify self-control. The more
power a leader has, the greater the confidence, influence and respect people will have for
him.
LEADERSHIP TRAITS
1. HONESTLY AND INTEGRITY-are two key ingredients that make for a good leader.
How can you expect honesty from your followers when you yourself lack these
qualities? Leasers flourish when they hold to their core values and beliefs and this
won’t be possible without ethics.
2. CONFIDENCE. You should be comfortable enough to be an effective leader and
ensure people obey your orders.
3. INSPIRE OTHERS. Probably the hardest thing a leader has to do is persuade others
to comply.
4. COMMITMENT AND PASSION. The team looks up to you and you’ll have to be
enthusiastic about that too if you want them to give their all.
5. GOOD COMMUNICATOR. As a leader you have to communicate your vision clearly
to your team and tell them the plan for achieving the goal, it will be very difficult for
you to get the results you want if you don’t.
6. DECISION-MAKING CAPABILIITES. A leader should have the ability to take the right
decision at the right time, in addition to having a futuristic vision. Leaders take
actions that have a profound impact on the people.

7. ACCOUNTABILITY. Give them a pat on the back if they do well but when they fail
make them realize their mistakes and work together to improve.
8. DELIGATION AND EMPOWERMENT. You just can’t do it all, right. Focusing on key
responsibilities is vital to a leader, while leading the rest to others.
9. CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION. In order to get ahead to today’s fast-paced
environment, a leader must be creative and innovative at the same time.
10. EMPATHY. As leaders, empathy with your followers will grow. You’ll fail to connect
more directly with your followers. Knowing the followers’ issues, and experiencing
their pain, is the first step towards becoming effective leaders.

Ethics in Leadership
“An ethical leader is someone who lives and dies for integrity.
Doing the right thing, even when it hurts, is the ethical leader’s mantra.”
Heather R. Younger
Founder of Customer Fanatix
Ethics is about the types of values and morals that a person or a community finds
acceptable or necessary. In addition, ethics is concerned with the morality and actions of
individuals. They look to leaders when it comes to ethics to lead on ethics and take
responsibility for both good and bad results.
Ethically leading leaders are role models, promoting the value of ethical
standards, keeping their people accountable for those principles, and crucially-designing
environments in which others work and live.

====================================================================================
IMPACTS OF ETHICAL LEADERSHIP
1. Honesty- it involves committing to presenting facts as they are, playing fair with
competitors, and communicating honestly with others.
2. Justice- to be fair means treating everyone equally, offering opportunities with no
favoritism, and condemning improper behaviors and manipulations, as well as any
other actions that could harm someone.
3. Respect- this includes listening to each stakeholder, fostering inclusion, and
value diversity. It is respecting others around them, regardless of their position or
identifying characteristics.
4. Integrity- it entails aligning consistently the values, words, and actions of the
organization. It is not enough to talk the talk; one has to walk the talk to
demonstrate integrity.
5. Responsibility-it means accepting leadership role, embracing the power and
duties that come with it, and always responding and being present in challenging
situations.
6. Transparency-it involves keeping an open dialogue, accepting feedback, and
disclosing the information others need to deliver their work.

The 4-V Model of Ethical Leadership
Sometimes knowing what is right is not a guarantee that a person will do what is
right. There is a gap between knowing the right thing and doing the right thing, in order to
bridge the gap a leader needs to have a moral courage (Grace,1998, p.10).
Moral Courage involves the willingness to speak out and do what is right in the face
of forces that would lead a person to act in some other way. The 4-V Model of Ethical
Leadership helps leaders to cross the bridge of moral courage which leads to moral
action (Grace,1998, p.10).
1. Values
2. Vision
3. Voice
4. Virtue
The 4-V model helps align the internal beliefs and values with the external
behaviors and actions for the purpose of the common good. The four V’s stand for Values,
Vision, Voice and Virtue, the characteristics that help create a strong ethical leader.

FUNCTIONS OF MANAGEMENT
1. PLANNING. The first task of a manager and forms the basis of which all other
tasks are derived. This is necessary to set goals and to develop strategies for
organizing activities.
An effective planning program incorporates the effect of both:
A. External Factors-this includes shortages of resources; both capital and
material, general economic trend as far as interest rates and inflation are
concerned, dynamic technological advancements, increased governmental
regulation regarding community interests, unstable international political
environments, etc.
B. Internal Factors-this includes limited growth opportunities due to saturation
requiring diversification, changing patterns of the workforce, more complex
organizational structures, decentralization, etc.

DEVELOPING MISSION AND VISION STATEMENTS
Creating the vision and mission statements of an organization are the first two
steps in the process of planning action. Developing a statement of vision and mission is
crucial for community initiatives to be successful. Such statements clarify the goals of
your community in a concise way, help the organization concentrate on what is really
important and provide a framework for further advancement of other elements of your
strategics plan.
Their vision is their dream. It’s what your company considers to be the ideal
conditions for your community; that is, how things would look if you absolutely,
beautifully addressed the issue that is important to you. It could be world without war, or
a society where all men, regardless of gender or racial background, are treated as equals.
The mission statement of an organization explains what the organization will do,
and why it will do that.
Mission statements are similar to claims about vision, in that they also look at the big
picture. They are more practical however, and they are certainly more “action-oriented”
than statements of dream. The statement of vision of an organization will inspire people
to dream; your statement of purpose should motivate them to take action.

4. The Unexpected Loss of An Employee or Personnel
It focuses on the policing process or how police agencies are organized and
managed in order to achieve the goals of law enforcement most effectively, efficiently
and productively. While the elements of control, organization, and supervision are
essential to the law enforcement administration, they are not the only elements. Other
elements include decision making, communication, planning, organizational
development and other emerging elements.
What is Policing?
➢ first is to ensure that law and order is maintained in a particular area or event
using the police or the military force; and
➢ second is to ensure that rules and procedures are followed correctly in something
or that something is implemented as agreed.
Community policing promises that closer alliances between the police and the
community will help reduce citizen fear of crime, improve police-community relations,
and facilitate more effective responses to community problems.
But there are also drawbacks associated with community policing: hostility between
the police and neighborhood residents can hinder productive partnerships; increases in
officers' decision-making autonomy can lead to greater opportunities for police
corruption; and resistance within the police organization can hamper community
policing's successful implementation.

SOCIAL STRUCTURE THEORY
➢ In the field of sociological criminology, social structure theories emphasize the
relation between social structure and criminal behavior, asserting that
disadvantaged economic conditions are primary influential factors in criminal
activity.
➢ As an interdisciplinary approach, it combines an examination of the social
dynamics of human behavior with the study of systemic barriers in place that
drive crime increases, such as concentrated poverty, community frustration, and
class struggle.
➢ Social structure theories for the most part identify poor educational resources,
absence of marketable skills, economic hardship, and subcultural values as being
the fundamental causes of criminal behavior.
There are three sub types within the hierarchy of social structure theories:
1. Social Disorganization Theory- posits that crime rates are interrelated with
issues of social pathology and are often associated with perspectives of the
Chicago School of criminology; this theory implies a direct link between
residential location as a factor in influencing a person’s inclination towards
engaging in criminal behavior.
2. Strain Theory-focuses on a schism between socially approvable goals and the
availability of means by which to socially achieve those goals which results in a
turn to crime by individuals unable to succeed legitimately.
3. Culture Conflict Theory. Lastly, culture conflict theory proposes that the root
cause of criminality is to be found within the values dissonance of differently
socially taught groups as to what constitutes acceptable or appropriate behavior.
A. DEMOCRATIC THEORY
➢ The traditional democratic theory emphasizes the values of liberty, equality
and justice in any system of governance. It promotes the rule of majority, while
protecting minority rights and maintaining the readiness to compromise. The
traditional democratic rule recognizes everyone’s worth and dignity.

➢ The theory provides for everyone’s participation in government either by direct or
representative vote. The people have the final say over public policy in a direct
vote, which is more effective on a small scale, such as in a town conference. In a
representative vote, sections of the public elect officials to serve in government on
their behalf. Such a system is employed at the state and national levels to
formulate public policy. Rule via voting works best when voters are given equal
access to information.
The four models in Grunig’s and Hunt’s theories have developed into models by
which the practices of today are analyzed and judged by. Here is a review of the four
models.
➢ During the 19th century press agents labored to create news to influence
public opinion. A press agent does not conduct surveys or research they just
want to manipulate behavior. Accuracy and credibility are not priorities with
this kind of model.
➢ This is a one-way communication from the press agents to their publics that
uses persuasion and manipulation to influence behavior of an audience. This
method is usually employed by practitioners for one-way communications to
sell products or services without any quantitative analysis of the results.
D. Communitarian theory
➢ Communitarianism is a 20th Century political and social ideology emphasizing the
interests of the community over those of the individual. Communitarianism is
often considered the opposite of liberalism, the theory that places the interests of
the individual above those of the community. In this context, communitarian
beliefs may have been most clearly expressed in the 1982 movie Star Trek II: The
Wrath of Khan, when Captain Spock tells Admiral James T. Kirk that, “Logic clearly
dictates the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.”

CHAPTER 7.
DECISION MAKING & PROBLEM SOLVING
Learning Objectives
At the end of this chapter, the students will able to:
✓ know and discuss correctly the environmental influence in decision-making
✓ recognize and demonstrate precisely the decision-making approaches and
techniques
Step 1: IDENTIFY THE DECISION. This is the very importance step; it is where the
manager realizes that it needs to make a decision. It needs to clearly define the nature of
the decision you must make. This first step is very important.
Step 2: GATHER RELEVANT INFORMATION. This is where the manager needs to collect
some pertinent information before making decision: what information is needed, the best
sources of information, and how to get it. This step involves both internal and external
“work.” Some information is internal: you’ll seek it through a process of self-assessment.
Other information is external: you’ll find it online, in books, from other people, and from
other sources.
Step 3: IDENTIFY THE ALTERNATIVES. After the manager collects information, he/she
will identify several possible paths of action, or alternatives. You can also use your
imagination and additional information to construct new alternatives. In this step, you will
list all possible and desirable alternatives.
====================================================================================

39
Character Formation 2
Leadership, Decision Making, Management and Administration
====================================================================================
Step 4: WEIGH THE EVIDENCE. Managers draws information and emotions to imagine
what it would be like if he/she carried out each of the alternatives to the end. Managers
needs to evaluate whether the need identified in Step 1 would be met or resolved through
the use of each alternative. As the manager goes through this difficult internal process,
he/she will begin to favor certain alternatives: those that seem to have a higher potential
for reaching your goal. Finally, place the alternatives in a priority order, based upon the
manager’s personal value system.
Step 5: CHOOSE AMONG ALTERNATIVES. After the manager weighs all the evidence,
he/she is ready to select the alternative that seems to be best one for him/her. The
manager may even choose a combination of alternatives. The choice in Step 5 may very
likely be the same or similar to the alternative you placed at the top of your list at the end
of Step 4.
Step 6: TAKE ACTION. This is where the manager will make some positive action by
beginning to implement the alternative, he/she chose in Step 5.
Step 7: REVIEW YOUR DECISION & ITS CONSEQUENCES in this final step is where the
manager considers the results of your decision and evaluate whether or not it has
resolved the need you identified in Step 1. If the decision has not met the identified need,
the manager may want to repeat certain steps of the process to make a new decision. For
example, the manager might want to gather more detailed or somewhat different
information or explore additional alternatives.
TYPES OF DECISIONS
1. PROGRAMMED DECISIONS-refers to decisions that do not have major
consequences or even require a lot of thought. These are decisions that occur
frequently enough that we develop an automated response to them. The
automated responses we use to make these decisions is called the Decision
Rule.
2. NON-PROGRAMMED DECISIONS-refers to decisions that are unique and
important that require conscious thinking, information gathering, and careful
consideration of alternatives. These are complex and have a long-term impact.
Example: adopting to new technology, acquiring another organization and
improving brand image.
2. TACTICAL DECISIONS- These are decisions about how things will get done.
These decisions relate to the implementation of strategic decisions. They are
directed towards developing divisional plans, structuring workflows, establishing

Character Formation 2
Leadership, Decision Making, Management and Administration
====================================================================================
distribution channels, and acquisition of resources such as men, materials and
money. These decisions are taken at the middle level of management.
3. OPERATIONAL DECISIONS- these are the decisions that employees make each
day to run the organization. They have a short-term horizon as they are taken
repetitively, these decisions are based on facts regarding the events and do not
require much of a business judgment. Operational decisions are taken at lower
levels of management.
The key difference between problem solving and decision making is that solving
problems is a process, whereas making decisions is an action based on insights derived
during the problem-solving process. Many people use the terms problem solving and
decision making interchangeably, but they are not the same.

HOW DOES PROBLEM SOLVING INVOLVE DECISION MAKING?
1. Use problem solving to identify potential solutions – this may involve decision
making, such as deciding to hold meetings with stakeholders or assigning team
members to tackle particular areas of the problem
2. Determine which solution is the best fit for the problem at hand
3. Make a decision on next steps to action the chosen solution

Fundamentally, data driven decision making means working towards key business goals
by leveraging verified, analyzed data rather than merely shooting in the dark.
✓ Qualitative analysis focuses on data that isn’t defined by numbers or metrics
such as interviews, videos, and anecdotes. Qualitative data analysis is based on
observation rather than measurement. Here, it’s crucial to code the data to ensure
that items are grouped together methodically as well as intelligently.
✓ Quantitative data analysis focuses on numbers and statistics. The median,
standard deviation, and other descriptive stats play a pivotal role here. This type of
analysis is measured rather than observed. Both qualitative and quantitative data
should be analyzed to make smarter data driven business decisions.
