1CRITICAL THINKING AND MANAGERIAL DECISION-MAKING
Introduction
The course of MGMT20135: Critical Thinking and Managerial Decision-Making is very
helpful for development of the improved processes. The use of the effective decision making
would help in developing the effective process of implementation process. The analysis of the
prospect of performing the critical thinking could help in forming the programs for the
implementation of the operations in the organization. The activity of thinking critically would be
implied for forming the development of the improved decision making process for the
organization. The implementation of the critical thinking is deployed for application of the
improved information processing. The analysis of the system development would form the
development of the smart processing and involvement of the improved functional operations.
The following essay is developed for integrating the deployment of the improved
processing and development of the critical thinking. The activity of thinking critically could be
deployed for integrating the information and data for deep analysis of the scenario. The
involvement of the critical thinking would be helpful for co-ordinating the management of the
processes and its implication for the processes. The analysis of the activity of thinking critically
could be formed for forming the approved method of the development.
Evaluation of Critical Thinking and Managerial Decision Making
I have followed the course for the development of the critical analysis of the improved
processing. The analysis of the critical thinking would help me for forming the improvement if
the effective operations in the organization. The development of the critical thinking and
managerial decision making would be implemented for the integration of the effective processing
of the operations and it would imply the management of the processing. The use of the effective

decision making would help in developing the effective process of implementation process. The
analysis of the critical thinking would help in developing the programs for the implementation of
the operations in the organization. The activity of thinking critically could be implemented for
forming the development of the improved decision making process for the organization. The
implementation of the critical thinking would be deployed for application of the improved
information processing. The analysis of the system development would form the development of
the smart processing and involvement of the improved functional operations.
The week 1 lecture was divulged in the understanding of the critical thinking and
managerial decision making for any provided scenario. The analysis of the critical thinking
would be employed for developing the improved processing of the organization. The formation
of the sufficient development of the report would involve the deployment of the improved
processing. The deployment of the improved decision making would be held responsible for
forming the improved processing of the development model. I have studied the description of the
critical thinking by the definition provided by Kallet “Critical thinking is disciplined thinking
that is clear, rational, open-minded, and informed by evidence”. The utilization of the improved
critical decision making process would be the first priority of my study. I came to realize the
development of the critical thinking for the organization. The second week is formed for
realizing the impact of the development of the operations and the implication of the advanced
processes. The second week focused on the clarity as the major factor for the development of the
critical thinking. The critical thinking would comprise of ten tools and they are emptying the
bucket, so what, inspection, anticipatory thinking, why, what are needed, what else, vision,
ingredient diagram, and thinking coach. The workshop we did was on the deployment of the
study of the contaminated mobile phones in the scenario of the hospital. I completed the

workshop by realizing the factors of development and reduction of the contamination of the
mobile phones in the offie premise. The third week was fully implied for developing the analysis
of the information processing and analysis for the evaluation of the critical thinking. The
information processing is formed for integrating the analysis of the profound critical
development process. The integration of the processes for the deployment of the managerial
decision making would be implied for forming the deployment of the improved functional
analysis.
The fourth week included the use of the reflect tools for the integration of the processes
of the self development. I came to know about the reflect tools that would help me in developing
the improved analysis of the processing of the organization. The management of the self
improvement would be highly helped by the use of the reflective and critical thinking. The week
6 was based on the analysis of a particular scenario for developing the appropriate tools of
integration model. The imperative management of the operations would carry on the formation
of the management scenario of deploying the effective processing and management. The
deployment of the improved decision making would be held responsible for forming the
improved processing of the development model. The integration of the processes for the
deployment of the managerial decision making would be implied for forming the deployment of
the improved functional analysis. The seventh week carried on the use of the rationale and non
rational concepts of the analysis of the situation. The analysis of the critical thinking would help
me for forming the improvement if the effective operations in the organization. The activity of
thinking critically could be implemented for forming the development of the improved decision
making process for the organization. The analysis of the system development would form the
development of the smart processing and involvement of the improved functional operations.

The 8th week would be implied for the complex and influential process of the development model
for the integration of the decision making. The given scenarios would be implied for forming the
process of involvement of the faster processing of the deployment model. The week 9 was
formed for study of the nature of contracts and the relevancy of the contracts procurement. The
deployment of the process would help in forming the compact analysis of the development
models.
Reflect tools would help in forming the development of an individual’s characteristics by
the help of self assessment and analysis. The reflect tools could help in developing the
development of the integration process for the analysis of the critical thinking and development.
The management of the operations would be formed for the development of the improved
processing. The analysis of the reflect tools would be formed for integrating the self assessment.
The key factors of self assessment are attitudes – opinions, motives - purposes, feelings –
emotions, strengths – weaknesses, desires - needs, and accurate self assessment. The key areas of
awareness can be classified into personal values, personality traits, emotions, habits, and
psychological needs and they are implied for realizing the key areas of the traits of the
development.
The study of the course had helped in developing an intrigue analysing nature for the
critical analysis and processes. I have studied the critical analysis for understanding the
development of an individual’s characteristics by the help of self assessment and analysis. The
reflect tools would assist me in understanding the integration process for the analysis of the
critical thinking and managerial decision making. The management of the operations could be
developed for the formation of the improved processing. The given scenarios would help me to
improve my judgement and decision making for forming the process of involvement of the faster

processing of the deployment model. The deployment of the process would help in forming the
compact analysis of the development models.
Conclusion
The course of MGMT20135: Critical Thinking and Managerial Decision-Making had
helped in developing the deployment of the improved processing and development of the critical
thinking and its importance in the development of the improved processes. The activity of
thinking critically could be implemented for forming the development of the improved decision
making process for the organization. The analysis of the system development would form the
development of the smart processing and involvement of the improved functional operations.
The analysis of the critical thinking would be formed for forming the approved method of the
development. I came to realize the development of the critical thinking for the organization. The
critical thinking had comprised of ten tools and they are emptying the bucket, so what,
inspection, anticipatory thinking, why, what are needed, what else, vision, ingredient diagram,
and thinking coach. The information processing is formed for integrating the analysis of the
profound critical development process. The integration of the processes for the deployment of
the managerial decision making would be implied for forming the deployment of the improved
functional analysis. I have studied the critical analysis for understanding the development of an
individual’s characteristics by the help of self assessment and analysis. The reflect tools would
help me in forming the development of the integration process for the analysis of the critical
thinking and managerial decision making.
