The Ethical Leader's Decision Tree

Isn't nice to know that there really are some important decision makers who try to make the right decisons based on how their decisions will affect others, not just how much money will this put in their pockets? I read several other Decision tree articles as well as the one by Constance Bagley. I am encouraged to find different decision trees based on what type of business is involved , rather then just generic decision trees that may not ask specific enough questions to help the officials find the right answers. I, even came upon a decision tree that the girl scouts use to determine what recognition awards their volunteers are entitled to receive.

Advocacy groups are using decision trees to help them decide what political candidates they are going to support.

New software and technology has been developed by various companies to give leaders more data to analysis before making those important decisions. It seems that in some instances, even after all the analysis, some decision makers still use "gut instincts" when faced with ethical decisions. After all, they have to be able to live with the decisions they make.

Some of the decisions seem like no-brainers. Then, there are those decisions that require a lot of thought, information and analysis before making the decision. I am glad that there are companies who provide the leaders with these decision trees . ss
