Abstract

Leaders’ decision making capacity and abilities directly impact their decision quality and performance. Decision making processes involve information collection, problem framing, and option evaluation. Moreover, multilevel performance and social information have an impact on the subsequent steps and outcomes of decision making. Following this logic, the leader’s ability to manage the decision making process is deemed to be critical to their role. In this chapter, we explore the relationship between decision making capacity and three relevant antecedent abilities: problem solving, social judgment and emotion management. However, because decision making is highly sensitive to the context, the impact of contextual factors such as time pressure and cultural differences are also discussed.
