The best #decisions are never made in #isolation. #QuoteADay #Day310 #edchat #edu #ASCDL2L #Collaborate
The best leaders are also effective decision-makers. However, being an effective decision-maker
shouldn’t be a lonely proposition. In
fact, the best decisions happen when they’re made along with others.
A decision made by one person is a decision that has likely
been impacted by only one point of view.
This is dangerous, as even in our most neutral states, we
still always exhibit some sort of bias.
To make sure that the decisions we make actually considers all the facts
and information that are out there, we need to engage input from other
stakeholders prior to making any type of determination.
Along with the fact that it is just good practice to decide
collaboratively, we also get the added bonus of building capacity for the work
that we’re doing. Like with anything
else, if you want to engage people, give them a role to play in the process.
By working together to make decisions we put everyone on
equal footing. And nothing is better for
scaling any given mountain like standing together to survey your options.
