Week 2

We cannot run away from facing any problem. We face all kinds of conflict in our lives, e.g. self conflict, marriage and etc. In all the situations, we need to make a decision that is accurate and flexible.The decision made is very important to free oneself from problems.

To solve problem, we need to analyze the problem Our ability to analyse the problem depends on our knowledge and expertise. If we have the expertise, the decision making becomes easy for us because after years and years of experience, we could possibly solve the problem without much effort. Reflective thinking is also important in making decisions. It helps you to creatively search for solutions.

We did discuss the limitations and strengths of individual and collective decision making, didn't we? Yes, individual DM is fast but could only draw knowledge from one individual whereas in collective DM knowledge and expertise are pooled and shared in order to solve problems.

Oh yeah, of course we role played brainstroming session. Two questions that I put regarding the use of paperclips and old newspapers were creatively solved by some groups. That was fun isn't it? Hope to see you again next week. Please do start your assignment on chapter summary.
