Tony Robbins said "Making decisions is the ultimate power." It is if you know how to make decisions. In his wonderful book, Heller introduced the reader to the world of decision making. He initally introduces the process most of us our familiar with: identify issues, undertake analysis, evaluate options, identify choices and implement plans. Then he demonstrates that making good decisions involes becoming aware of a whole array of factors such as culture, gathering information, minimising risk, planning, overcoming objections and so on. For me, the takeaway was understanding the model I use in making decisions is one of m ahy available. In the current pandemic, I do wonder whether many of the Governments would have benefited from reading this book before they made some of the decisions they have. The art of good decision making is not so much in being decisive but being able to focus both on your objectives and the whole picture. Excellent.

This was an impulse buy at the Denver Airport. It was easy and I would say elementary, but it is also good to have these points refreshed. That said, there are about a dozen of thse guide books in this series and I did not get any of the others.

A must-read book on decision making and problem solving, which are two critical competencies in business life.
