Introduction
The decision-making process is a method that helps me to provide my feelings regarding any
situation. By decision style instrument I have selected my preferred decision style that will help
me in future to achieve my goals. Furthermore, my shadow type and own type domain and
strategies of self-development will also be discussed in this paper.
Decision preference test results
The decision style instrument helps me to realize my decision-making preferences, and from this,
I have gained that balance decision style preferable for me among all other styles. Balance
decision style provides opportunities for logical and higher contribution to the decision making
procedure (Betsch, 2014). I have selected my preferable decision-making style after learning all
the styles of decision making that includes logical and intuition styles along with the balance
styles. From all these styles I have gained that balance style of decision provides me a chance for
better commitment while applying any sorts of the decision. In addition, this style also helps me
to interact with the persons that affected by ultimate decisions. Besides this, with the help of this
balance decision style, I can choose the correct decision in a logical and balanced manner so that
no one will eventually hurt my the particular decision. I have seen that while finding a proper
solution for a serious issue, many other unwanted challenges are formed at the same time.
Therefore, in order to overcome such challenges as well as issues the balance decision-making
style is chosen as the best because it helps me to give a result on a balanced manager so that no
one will be offended by the decision.
From the three decision-making styles, I have calculated the mean value of the three styles and
comparing these values I will clear about my preferable decision style. After calculating the
values, I have seen that in intuition, balance and consistent style I have achieved a mean value of
24, 46 and 31 respectively. Therefore, from these values, I have cleared that balance style is my
preferable decision style and it helps me to achieve my career goals in the future too. Although I
have to improve my decision-making capabilities so that I can face every challenge relating to a
decision without any hesitation.
