Abstract
Provides questionnaires so students can compare their experiences with different decison-making processes. Students read 'Growing Pains,' a Harvard Business Review (HBR) case study, and then work in teams to come up with recommendations using a consensus approach to decison making. The next day using Decision-Making Exercise (B) and (C) and 'Case of the Unhealthy Hospital,' another HBR case study, and working in the same teams, use either a dialectical inquiry or devil's advocacy approach to decision making.
