The Second Topic was Decision Making Theory presented by By Dr. Alaa Salman; PhD (Civil Eng.), P. Eng., PMP
Dr. Alaa presented to our members Decision making as the study of identifying and choosing alternatives based on the values and preferences of the decision maker. Making a decision implies that there are alternative choices to be considered, and in such a case we want not only to identify as many of these alternatives as possible but to choose the one that best fits with our goals, objectives, desires, values, and so on. Decision making should start with the identification of the decision maker(s) and stakeholder(s) in the decision, reducing the possible disagreement about problem definition, requirements, goals and criteria. Several methods can be used to rank alternatives and select the most suitable one.
