A. Analyze three decisions you made over the past six months. Which of these were programmed and which were nonprogrammed?

B. Which model-the classical, adminstrative, or political - best describes the approach you took to make each decision?

Programmed decisions - Lower supervisors make planned, organized problems-related decisions.

Non-programmed decisions - used both for internal and external organizations in uniquely structured situations.

The rational approach in decision-making is the traditional one, when the goals are good, the problems are dear, the parameters and weight are settled on, and the problems are not tendentious.

The decision-making of the managerial model requires performance. Rationality argues for an awareness of possible intervention strategies to achieve the goals. The user should all have full information and the ability to properly evaluate various alternatives according to the aims. The desire should be to choose the best solution by choosing the alternative that can achieve the goal.

The three decisions I have faced over the course of these six months include:

a. Given the option of two companies, Apple and Samsung, I had to choose a mobile phone.

b. I ordered a meal that I never tried before in a restaurant.

c. Should choose the airline I had to travel abroad with my aunts.

1. It's a programmed decision in fact because we all have less chance of making mistakes. Even though I have an apple branded phone, I know the specifications and the pricing of both already, it is therefore a routine decision-making process.

2. Is an unprogrammed choice because I don't know how to eat it.
