Do they always follow a rational linear process to come to a conclusion?Studies have suggested that the traditional Decision Making model—commonly known as the Rational Decision Making Model—does not explain the whole ambit of Decision Making. People, including managers of organizations, arrive at decisions using a variety of routes. Experts suggest that there are at least 3 Decision Making Models that work in consonance to make the best decisions. The 3 Decision Making Models are:
The latter 2 models need to supplement the 1st in order, for people in general and managers in particular, to improve the quality of Decision Making. Developing a strong understanding of these foundational Decision Making models is recommended for any Business Leader who seeks to make better, more informed, more rational decisions. Experts have suggested that people have the capacity to use all 3 models for arriving at a decision and so do organizations. The 3 approaches to Decision Making draw a parallel from science, art, and craft. People who are partial to Thinking are more into facts, those who favor Seeing appreciate ideas, and people who prefer Doing always value experiences. Let us delve a little deeper into the details of the 3 Decision Making Models—Thinking, Seeing, Doing. Thinking FirstMore commonly known as the Rational Decision Making Model, this model has a clearly identified process. It is linear, logical, effortless, and iterative—i.e., keeps travelling back and forth with interludes for new events, alterations for opportunities until conclusively arriving at a decision.

It is usually used in creative solution finding. Experts have identified 4 steps in creative discovery:
An example of Seeing First Model will be Mozart’s allusion to the best part of creating his music; “when I am able to see the whole of it at a single glance in my mind.” Seeing First Model works ideally in circumstances where:
Doing FirstWhen stumped for a solution, diving head first and tinkering with a problem—bringing Problem Solving Mindset characteristics into play—leads to the necessary insights following trial and error. Attempting various things, discovering which among them functions, finding meaning in that and repeating the productive behaviors while abandoning the rest is the gist of Doing First Model. Experts have identified 3 stages of this process:
Doing First Model is ideal, when for example, companies are faced with disruptive technologies or unchartered territories.
