Q: What are strengths and weaknesses of rational man model? (3)
Answer:
Strengths and Weaknesses of the Rational Decision Making Model
The main strength of a rational decision making model is that it provides structure and discipline to the decision making process. It helps ensure we consider the full range of factors relating to a decision, in a logical and comprehensive manner.
However, we should always remember that whilst the model indicates what needs to be done, it's often how things are done that characterizes effective decision making.
Paul C. Nutt's research illustrates that bad decisions were usually bad because two things were missing:
However, we should always remember that whilst the model indicates what needs to be done, it's often how things are done that characterizes effective decision making.
Paul C. Nutt's research illustrates that bad decisions were usually bad because two things were missing:
- adequate participation of stakeholders in the decision making process;
- sufficient time spent generating a range of possible solutions.
Too often those who should have been involved weren't, and solutions were proposed and acted upon too quickly. Often with disastrous effects!
A second weakness arises if we attempt to use the model in isolation. This is particularly important where complex or important decisions are involved. The principle assumption of the rational decision making process is that human beings make rational decisions. However, there are numerous factors which determine our decisions, many of which are not rational. In many situations decisions have to be made with incomplete and insufficent information. Judgement, intuition, experience and knowledge all come together when making decisions. This critical aspect is further explored in our article: Intuition and Decision Making.
Regardless of any perceived weaknesses these models are essential tools. A rational decision making model can help us to make better decisions - and thus help us to be better managers.
Q: You r a going to launch ABC firm which produce IT products, what will be your planning?
Answer:
With a good product launch plan, it is necessary that you market and presell your product before the actual launch date. During this time, you must use as many methods of advertising as you can to get your message out. The internet has turned out to be the perfect medium for prelaunching successful product releases. Just put ads to your product on high traffic websites that are closely related to your target market. Remember, that a successful product launch plan always takes into account the target audience that it is marketing to.
You should always include attractive bonus offers with your product when you begin to come up with your product launch plan. Including bonuses and alluring offers with your product will improve the success and earnings gained from the launch. Another proven product launch plan is to keep the price low initially during the launch, then raising the price to its normal price after a few days.
