How to justify a decision with the feeling? How to defend it when things went wrong?<BR/><BR/>What more it's often regarded as unprofessional to make a decision based on feeling.<BR/><BR/>Funny thing is that even when we have all those numbers counted, all aspects measured the decision is still subjective, because w interpret it in some way. I've seen exactly the same facts which brought several people to completely different conclusions. And I mean recommending to kill the product line versus advising to build whole company's strategy over exactly the same product.<BR/><BR/>It was all about feelings. One believed in the product, other didn't. Facts were merely the basis for what people felt.Pawel Brodzinskihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04369257211504152485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28351195.post-12606215928887318072007-04-04T18:11:00.000+02:002007-04-04T18:11:00.000+02:002007-04-04T18:11:00.000+02:00It amazes me how unwilling people are to trust their "feeling". We have become so accustomed to everything being objective and precise that we completely discount things that we cannot quantify. Why are we so addicted to quantification? And if everything really is objective, why don't we let the computer do our hiring, project management, etc. and go off to the mountains to catch butterflies?Austin Bobhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01592546327943832367noreply@blogger.com
