27 YA/presesntation200927 Decision making and problem solving Introduction Because managers spend much time making decisions and solving problems, developing skills in these areas is essential to increasing effectiveness

28 YA/presesntation200928 Nurse manager is confronted by a variety of situations. Hospital or agency policies provide guidelines for dealing with routine situations. But exceptional instance can make decisions more difficult and require a mature sense of judgment. Nurse manager is confronted by a variety of situations.

33 YA/presesntation200933 Theoretical approaches for problem – solving and DM How do people become successful problem-solver and decision maker How do people become successful problem-solver and decision maker Successful decision-making can be learned through life experience,but not every learns to solve problem and judge wisely by this trial and error method because much is left to chance. Successful decision-making can be learned through life experience,but not every learns to solve problem and judge wisely by this trial and error method because much is left to chance. So,there should be some process or models to be used as a theoretical base for learning and practice to improve decision _making skills. So,there should be some process or models to be used as a theoretical base for learning and practice to improve decision _making skills.

34 YA/presesntation200934 The Traditional Problem Solving Model, includes 7 steps 1- Identify the problem 2- collecting data 3- explore alternative 4- evaluate the alternatives 5- select the appropriate alternative 6- implement the solution 7- evaluate the results

35 YA/presesntation200935 Managerial Decision-Making Model: Include 6 steps: Set objective. Set objective. Search for alternatives. Search for alternatives. Evaluate alternative.

38 YA/presesntation200938 Individual variations in D.M.  If each person receives the same information and uses the same scientific approach to problem solving,will they makes the same D.? motasem_salah@yahoo.com

39 YA/presesntation200939  People make decision by perceiving and evaluation …they perceive by sensation and intuition and they evaluate their perception by thinking and feeling  Other factors that influence D.M. (value, life experience,preference, risks and way individual think)

40 YA/presesntation200940 Critical element in problem solving & D.M. A- Clearly defined objectives, decision makers often go a head in their problem solving process; without first determining their goal which result in poor quality decisions. motasem_salah@yahoo.com

41 YA/presesntation200941 B- Careful data gathering one must learn how to obtain accurate information and avoid bias. C- Generate many alternatives: Do not limit your choice to tow possible judgments when there are more options available. Do not limit your choice to tow possible judgments when there are more options available.

42 YA/presesntation200942 - Increasing the number of people working on a problem will increase the number of alternatives that can be generated. - Brain storming: thinks of all possible alternatives even those that may seem off target.

43 YA/presesntation200943 D-Think logically: - Draw inference from information. - Careful thinking through the information and alternatives. - Faulty logic leads to poor quality decisions. Critical element in problem solving & D.M. (Cont.,) motasem_salah@yahoo.com

44 YA/presesntation200944 E- Choose and act decisively: - Many people become vulnerable at this point in problem _solving process and choose to delay acting because they lack the courage to do so. - Critical element in problem solving & D.M. (Cont.,) motasem_salah@yahoo.com

45 YA/presesntation200945 - Good decision _makers seem to have some sort of antenna that makes them particularly sensitive to situations than others.

46 YA/presesntation200946 Decision Making Techniques  The techniques help you to make the best decisions possible with the information you have available.  With these tools you will be able to map out the likely consequences of decisions, work out the importance of individual factors, and choose the best course of action to take. motasem_salah@yahoo.com
