Decision Making

'Quamplurimi et quam aptisimi" (As many as possible of the very best)

Leaders must make decision.  However, we must make decisions that are made as a manager, and as a Leader. Peter Drucker, and we interchange this label.  We can also classify these as Technological Challenges  This is the easy part

Managers manage things, processes, information, # events,  the facts are clearer.We can also classify these as Technological Challenges  This is the easy part

Whereas, Leadership is about you, your people, your constituents, ethics, morality, legality, public and environment. social norms, culture.  We can also refer to this as  Adaptive Challenges.  This is more challenging, dangerous, and fraught with dilemnas, moral, legal and ethical.  For example, I was asked by Leader Cezar regarding corrupt govt officials.  I dared say, it is easy to say that they are corrupt.  But elected govt officials have to deal with daily parade of alm, and help seekers.  Damned if you do especially if you don't because your constituents will bad mouth you, or not elect you any more. So what if you do not help your townsfolk -  will your conscience not bother you if they die of hunger?  What if you do?  Where do you get the money?  How do you get the money  From Jueteng or contractors.   If you doing a Robin Hood strategy?  Will the govt officials, in helping the poor think he is corrupt?  Or he even thinks he is religious, because he helps the least of His brethren?  What do you think?


We are not defending people who corrupt who think they are not. That is where ethics and morality come, and the ability to transcend, ie spirituality in leadership
