Effective Decision-Making Tools – Discussion

1. What type of decision maker are you? How have your decisions guided you through life? Given what you have read about project management in the text and the PMBOK, what are some changes or improvements in your decision making, do you think you will have to make in order to be successful in project management?

Please explain.
