The ideal PM avoids intuitive decisions and stomps for rational thinking. He analyzes, considers all factors and chooses the best option. A decision is a choice with consequences. And the PM is responsible for them. He is not afraid to make decisions and doesn’t procrastinate because he has a system for making decisions in general and specifically for the project. This helps to neutralize cognitive distortions and escape the quagmire of inaction. This approach works in all complex and uncertain situations. It helps in making constructive and informed decisions. For an ideal PM, decision making is the courage to just take everything upon himself, because the decision is his, not a way to show his coolness, like, I’m the boss and I make decisions. It is above all knowledge about thinking and decision making process. An ideal PM can easily explain the logic of decision making and his/her actions in case of negative consequences.
