Decision-Making
for Teams and Leaders
On April 24, 2024, Telekom will once again host the Agilista Barcamp, an Open Space organized by Telekom and open to everyone. I’ll be presenting a session on “Decision-Making,” covering the fundamentals and frameworks for effective decisions in both hierarchical and self-organized environments. Well-organized conditions enable efficient decision-making and are a powerful lever for significantly enhancing an organization’s ability to take action.
Starting with Some Theory on Decision-Making
A shared understanding of processes and conditions is a key part of confidently making good decisions in daily life. We’ll look behind the scenes of everyday decision-making—what and when to decide together or alone, and why it’s not always about weighing options. Often, it’s about navigating irresolvable paradoxes. Simply being aware of this makes a noticeable difference in day-to-day situations.
Practical Application
Toward the end of the session, we’ll make a sample decision together using the systemic consensus method. This approach focuses on gauging resistance rather than agreement. In theory, this enhances mutual awareness within the team and improves the team’s perception of the decision at hand.
How Does This Help in My Day-to-Day Work?
The hands-on exercise at the end of the workshop provides far more insight than a theoretical explanation alone. Through direct experience and shared reflection, the immediate benefits for daily work become clear.
Would you like to improve decision-making and thus the ability to act in your team or organizational unit? Then book an appointment for a non-binding discussion and together we will see what future collaboration could look like.
