There are several decision-making models to choose from in any given situation. In my research I have come across several; the Responsible Decision-Making Model, the Ethical Decision-Making Model, the Democratic Decision-Making Model, and the Collective Decision-Making Model to name a few. Decision making pervades all other management functions and plays a key role in the creation of positive human relations. The performance of all management tasks, from organizing to controlling, requires that decisions be made. How these decisions are made will either benefit the organization or hurt it, depending upon whether they are effective or ineffective decisions. The effectiveness of decision making module in an organization will help determine whether the human relations situation is favorable or unfavorable. This is because the decisions that managers make will determine the nature of the three building blocks of the work environment: job, leader, and organization. The ideal is to obtain effective decision making so as to create a positive work environment whereby workers are satisfying their own needs while simultaneously satisfying the organization's goals.
