Driven by extreme uncertainty following the onset of Covid - 19, immediate change became an imperative for all CEOs. Their response was impressive, corporate leaders sprang into action. This begs the question though: If decision making is improved during a crisis, why isn’t it that good all the time? The answer lies in the circumstances of the problem being addressed. Influential factors are uncertainty, complexity, risk and reward. In this video we present a matrix that provides insight into alternative decision making methodologies, of which Muddling Through is one. The context of the discussion is organisational transformation and renewal.
