摘要

Citizens and leaders must successfully influence and participate in processes of decision-making, if we expect to advance human dignity and healthy ecologically functioning environments. The decision process—questions, standards, and pitfalls to avoid—can help you identify, create, and secure opportunities to advance human dignity in healthy environments. In other words, building skills in the decision process is key to becoming a responsible citizen or leader. Different goals or value demands (claim making) are expected in problem-solving groups in a democratic society. In these circumstances, there is no shortage of opportunities for you to help decision-make a sound process. As we lay out in this book, the decision process provides a stable frame of reference to organize and understand the interconnected activities of decision-making and draw attention to opportunities to make them more functional. The decision process can help you create or assess different decision-making processes, no matter how complex or seemingly chaotic. The worksheets below can help you attend to your role and work to improve your decisions. This chapter includes a panel written by Dr. Susan Iott.
