One of the most frequent functions the supervisor is called on to perform is that of decision making

It is imperative that he develop his ability to draw conclusions from facts at hand and stick to a decision unless, of course, it is manifestly improper. Even if he occasionally makes the wrong decisions, the fact that he has taken positive action when action is indicated is usually better than if he had taken none at all. Decisiveness has a stabilizing influence on subordinates. Indecisiveness is easily perceived and tends to destroy confidence and lower respect. Ultimately, performance is adversely affected. The decision-making process involves several steps. First, there must be which of the following? a. Data must be evaluated and analyzed
b. The decision must then be communicated to those who must carry it out
c. An awareness that a real problem exists
d. Alternative approaches leading to a logical conclusion should be decided on
