Applying Critical Thinking in Determining the Ethical Implications

and Other Factors Which Affect Decision Implementation

Introduction

Correct decisions , the two previous s elaborately developed , can be arrived at only if the requisite process of ponderously putting many influencing factors in perspective is observed . Since errors in decision-making can end up being costly both for the company and its stakeholders alike , it has been seen that the use of critical thinking has proven to be essential in guiding decision makers in choosing the best options that will generate best results . But if

one were to think that arriving at a logical and well-thought out decision ends the entire process of decision-making , one definitely takes the dangerous path of frustrating the process all together . A correct decision , one may argue only proves to be beneficial to a company or organization when its implementation would translate the rigors of critical analyses into tangible results . Langdon , if only to mention , argues along the same line of thought . He maintains , Decision makers will never leave the point of the decision without thinking about the steps necessary to implement the decision successfully (Langdon , 2001 ,

The purpose why the last identified them is to further inform the decision maker of the resulting benefits and costs that must be anticipated in the event of making the decision . However , to outline the varying factors that may affect the implementation of any decision - which , if only to mention , concerns greatly the company and its stakeholders - is another area that must also be carefully looked at . Surely , the three above-cited options will generate ebbs of impact for the company in general

Two major factors can determine the success of the implementation of the suggested paths : the internal coherence of the decision itself , and the external receptivity of the stakeholders involved . The first factor pertains to the logic from which any decision is drawn and this has already constituted a large portion of the previous studies . Every decision , if only to repeat , is arrived at after a ponderous circumscription of the...
