Decision making is fundamental to individual, team, and organisational performance. We believe that EVERYONE can make better decisions. Through over 30 years of experience at Thompson Dunn, we know that speedy and effective decisions are made spontaneously, and are then often supported by an analysis of the relevant facts. Our conclusion is that understanding the role of INTUITION and gut feeling can help you make better decisions.
“Do you know when a decision just feels right? Do you know what makes up a good decision?”
By giving you some insight into decision making, we can help you make better decisions and communicate them more effectively. In response to our awareness of how people make decisions – we have developed the Decision Profile.
The Decision Profile is a psychometric instrument designed and developed to explore how people make decisions, and to illustrate the underlying elements of their decision making profile. The tool specifically measures an individual’s attitudes to three decision making elements; RISK, LUCK, and DECISIVENESS. It then creates a unique, personalised profile for individuals, group or whole organisation by assessing how these three elements interact.
A particular advantage of the Decision Profile is that it pays attention to the use of Intuition. Current neuro-scientific research supports the utility of the Decision Profile as a business and leadership tool, including how intuition and Intuitive Intelligence influence our choices. Decisions are more than the speed of our conclusions. How decisions are made and communicated informs our individual, group and organisational performance.
“The Decision Profile has the potential to unlock your individual, group and organisational decision making and allow you to operate more effectively in your life and work”
The Decision Profile brings order and clarity to the exploration and presentation of the complexities of human decision making. In particular, it demonstrates what behaviours may be produced by a decision making style (e.g. a Leader or Investigator Profile). We believe the Decision Profile will empower you, your team, or your organisation to make, understand, and communicate your decisions with much greater clarity.
