And "decision", a "decision" of the core content embodied in the word "strategy", focusing on commercial issues of process and every stage of the process. Therefore, the process of making decisions, and decisions are more decision making into the collection.

Unfortunately, most companies are not willing to spend more time to clarify the relationship between the two. Because competition is fierce and risk exists, the enterprise more cases focus on the final decision of guess, lest a half-point margin. But once the question really appeared, followed by is complaining and blaming each other. In fact, in those decisions may seem wrong, we can conclude that the enterprise is ignored on the details of the problem, do not pay attention to the decision-making process, and finally leads to poor decisions. As the saying getting at the root of the matter, if a decision of a problem, it causes a

Set in the decision making process.
