Decision Analysis for Management Judgement, 5th Edition

,  

ISBN: 9781118887875, 9781118740736

Decision Analysis for Management Judgement, 5th Edition is unique in its breadth of coverage of decision analysis methods. It covers both the psychological problems that are associated with unaided managerial decision making and the decision analysis methods designed to overcome them. It is presented and explained in a clear, straightforward manner without using mathematical notation.

This latest edition has been fully revised and updated and includes a number of changes to reflect the latest developments in the field.

Features

  • Presents and explains decision analysis methods without using mathematical notation and tools that are beyond the scope of most of the book’s target audience – practicing managers and business students.

  • Rigorous in its presentation of methods – the material is covered in sufficient depth to allow readers to apply methods appropriately and with full knowledge of their rationale, assumptions and limitations.
  • Provides a broad coverage of decision analysis methods.
  • Features topics that are rarely, if ever, found in other textbooks, including explanations of special methods that are designed to handle resource allocation and negotiation problems and a demonstration of how decision analysis can be used in tandem with scenario planning in strategic decision making.
