Abstract

Provides questionnaires so students can compare their experiences with different decision-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 decision making. The next day they use 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.
