Question: Work through the steps in Figure for a decision you currently face, such as where to go on holiday, which courses to choose next year, or which job to apply for. Then do the same for a decision that involves several other people, such as which assignment to do in your study group or where to go for a night out together. If you work in an organisation, select two business decisions as the focus of your work.

· How did working through the steps affect the way you reached a decision?

· Did it help you think more widely about the alternatives?

· How did the second decision, involving more people, affect the usefulness of the method?

· Then reflect on the technique itself: did it give insight into the decision process? What other tasks should it include?
