1 Assess Honestly

To improve your decision-making skills, begin by honestly assessing your current abilities. Reflect on past decisions and consider what went well and what could have been done differently. This self-awareness will highlight areas for improvement and patterns in your decision-making process. Be mindful of cognitive biases, such as confirmation bias, where you may favor information that confirms your preconceptions, and strive to recognize and mitigate them.

Self-awareness plays a role in decision making process. Experience is the raw material and just requires revisiting past situations - with both positive and negative outcomes. It can start at higher level, assessing which elements led to the outcome (process, KPIs, ext/int factors, communication, etc.) and drilled down to identify gaps. The key point is accepting the gap exists and then work upon that. For successful decisions, learn what led to that and then replicate in future opportunities

2 Gather Information

Before making a decision, it's crucial to gather as much relevant information as possible. This means consulting with experts, conducting research, and considering all available data. By doing so, you ensure that your decisions are well-informed and not based on assumptions or incomplete information. Remember, while it's important to be thorough, avoid analysis paralysis – the state where over-analyzing or overthinking a situation can cause decision-making to become paralyzed.

First step is really define which information will be key and which is nice to have; linked to that the availability, effort to access/generate and quality (source, up-to-date, granularity, etc.). With the amount of data available in today's world, this step is crucial to avoid the "infoxication" and then dictate the pace to have the true must have information required to substantiate the discussion leading to a decision

3 Consider Alternatives

Once you have all necessary information, take the time to consider various alternatives. Weigh the pros and cons of each option and think about the potential outcomes. This step is essential for strategic thinking, as it allows you to explore different scenarios and their possible impacts on your goals. It's also a good practice to think several steps ahead, anticipating future challenges and opportunities that might arise from your decision.

As alternative way of thinking, running backcasting is a nice way to challenge the vision and goals. Starting from the end and going backwards helps to check if with all elements considered (trends, competitive landscape, tactics and resources) it's feasible to get there

4 Set Priorities

In the professional realm, not all decisions carry the same weight. Therefore, setting priorities is a crucial step in the decision-making process. Determine which factors are most important to the success of your decision and allocate your resources accordingly. Understanding what is at stake and the potential risks involved will help you make a more calculated and strategic decision.

5 Make Decisions

After thorough analysis and consideration, it's time to make your decision. Trust in the process you've followed and the information you've gathered. Be decisive and clear in your choice, and once it's made, commit to it fully while remaining open to adjustments if necessary. Remember that making a decision is often better than indecision, as it allows for progress and learning through experience.

6 Reflect and Learn

Post-decision analysis is just as important as the decision-making process itself. Reflect on the outcome of your decisions and what you can learn from them. Whether the result was positive or negative, there's always an opportunity to grow and refine your decision-making skills. Use these insights to inform future decisions, continually improving your professional judgment over time.

Reflect and learn walks hand in hand with self-awareness in terms of decision-making required skills. In the dynamic world we are inserted in, "fail fast and learn" is more than applicable here
